Andy Oliver and Billy Lee completed doubles at Gowran Park when Collision Course battled bravely to land the Like Gowran Park On Facebook Handicap.
With favourite Storm Ranger emerging from the pack a furlong out, the writing looked on the wall for the 9-2 winner, but he stuck his head down when it mattered to score by a head.
