Inverell trainer Todd Payne is celebrating the narrow victory of his star 7-year-old gelding Lisztomania after it snatched victory at Eagle Farm in Brisbane on Saturday.
Racing in a Benchmark 85 and ridden by Luke Nolan, Lisztomania maneuvered from the rear in the straight and headed towards the inside rail to storm home and claim the win.
Payne says he was confident of a good first up performance but admits he was a bit nervous at the top of the straight being so far back.
He says Lisztomania next target will be the Ramornie Hcp at the Grafton Racecourse on July 15th
