FEW would have begrudged consistent bitch Posh Di her win in the Easter Plate final last Thursday night.
Posh Di has been denied a few feature wins when she’d led and been run down at the business end of proceedings but this time she was the swooper.
A hot pace was set by Zamira that led from box two and held a two-length advantage on his rivals turning for home.
But when Posh Di ($5.40) put in the big strides she quickly assumed control and went on to defeat the pods-on favourite Thirteen Black ($1.90) by a half-length with Zamira hanging on for third over three lengths astern.
It was Posh Di’s fourth win from a dozen starts on the Hobart track but she also has notched six minor placings.
Her overall record stands at 10 wins and as many placings from 29 outings.
