A big finale resulted in a big smile for one TAB customer on Sunday night when Ruebe Starbuck prevailed first-up from a break at Cranbourne.
The punter placed $4000 on the Kyle Marshall-trained and Connor Clarke-driven four-year-old, and collected $16,800 when she stormed home from three back along the pegs to win the Hygain Pace in a photo over Bulletproof Kid.
It was one of the major collects on Victorian harness racing last week with the TAB. Some of the other big hits and misses are listed below.
