Philandering Chef broke through for a maiden victory on Saturday at Wagga for Young-based harness racing trainer Todd Day.
The promising three-year-old gelding, son of Heston Blue Chip USA, finally enjoyed a win taking out the TAB Odds and Evens Maiden (1740m).
He'd finished in the money in eight of 10 prior starts.
Day provided the winning drive, much to the punters delight who had Philandering Chef start the race as the $2.15 favourite.
Racing returns to Riverina Paceway on Monday night.
Day has two pacers, Artistic Trouble and Holy Camp Caprhyse, entered from his stable.
Artistic Trouble will trot out in the Temora Harness Racing Club Pace (1740m), while Holy Camp Caprhyse will challenge the Young Harness Racing Club Pace (1740m).
Again, a large contingent of trainers from Young and surrounds will feature throughout the Wagga Harness Racing Club's eight race program including David Micallef, Josh Powderly, Rodney Blythe, Michael Prest, Wayne Friend, Allen Smithers and Mark Cullen.
Racing begins on Monday at 5.33pm at Wagga.
