The all-conquering stable of Mark Purdon and Natalie Rasmussen dominated yesterday's showpiece Harness Jewels meeting at Cambridge with six winners on the nine-race group one card.
And it was fitting that Australasia's top stable produced the first Australian winner at the Jewels when super filly Shez All Rock treated her rivals with contempt in the 3YO Diamond.
In a brilliant front-running performance, she stopped the clock at 1.51.9 for the 1600m with a five-length margin to her contemporaries.
Although she won in the name of Purdon and Rasmussen, she wore the green colours of her homeland and will head back across the Tasman to former trainer Mark Pitt.
Purdon, usually reserved, was in raptures with the filly's performance. "She was just beautiful today and it was just brilliant the way she did it ... she could have gone a second quicker if I asked her too."
