| Growl wins torrid Hobart Cup One-time Caulfield Cup fancy Growl won his first race in more than three years despite a torrid run in the Group Three Hobart Cup. Jockey Brad Rawiller said he was a victim of circumstances on the David Hayes-trained Growl who was shunted five-wide in the back straight in the 2200m race. "Bossy (Glen Boss on the $4.20 favourite Rathsallagh) at one stage put me out five deep," Rawiller said. "I thought I couldn't win if I started going forward from there so I got on to the back of Bossy. "I ended up having to go a touch early but he was too good. Coming to the corner he showed what he's shown at home." Growl ($12.20) streeted his rivals, racing away to score by 4-1/4 lengths from De Fine Lago ($6.50) with Dream Pedlar ($30) four lengths away third. |  |
