The Charlie Swan trained Rajik followed up on his recent win at Gowran Park when landing The Longways (Q.R) Handicap under Derek O'Connor in the colours of the Rathcoffey Racing Syndicate.

O'Connor raced the Kalanisi gelding in mid-division, took closer order approaching straight, challenged from over 1 1/2f out and kept on well to lead close home to deny 50/1 shot Coastal Command from the Pat Hughes yard.
