Cars go in two attacks Police hunt arsonist
Signature trick: Hastings CFA firefighter Kerri-Ann Davidson and Captain Colin Cook, left, with the thermal imaging camera that was able to track a trapped kitten’s heat “signature”, above.
By Keith Platt DELIBERATELY lit fires wrecked two cars and damaged a third in Hastings early Saturday morning. The cars were torched within two hours of each other, although police have been unable to link the crimes. In the first blaze a Toyota Camry station wagon was burnt out on a nature strip in Villawood Drive, Hastings. Heat from the burning vehicle seriously damaged a Land Rover Discovery that was parked alongside the Camry. Detective Leading Senior Constable Nick Sweetman, of Hastings CIU, said the owner of the Discovery, a volunteer Hastings CFA firefighter, was awakened by his pager calling him to the station. “He probably minimised the damage by using his garden hose on the blaze,” Detective Sweetman said. Police believe a piece of cloth poked into the Camry’s petrol tank was used as a wick to start the fire. The CFA was called to the blaze at about 3.25am and responded with two tankers from Hastings and one from Bittern. Less than two hours later the alarm went off again, this time in response to a car burning in the car park of Kings Creek Hotel near Hodgins Rd.
Detective Sweetman said a 1999 Holden Caprice was destroyed in the blaze. He said the car had been stolen from outside a mechanic’s repair shop in Frankston-Flinders Rd, Hastings, between 5pm on Friday night and the time it was found alight. Detective Sweetman said the keys for the unlocked car had been tucked under the driver’s sunvisor. “I suspect the mechanic may have some explaining to do to the owner, a Bittern man,” Detective Sweetman said. “I don’t know why the car was abandoned in the hotel car park and I don’t believe it’s related to a spate of car thefts and torchings earlier this year.” Detective Sweetman said police at Frankston had arrested and charged several people who had been stealing cars on a “nightly basis” and torching them at various places, including Carrum Downs, Frankston and Devilbend Reserve near Moorooduc. “We don’t know if these two fires in Hastings on Saturday are related or just a coincidence,” he said. Anyone with information can call Hastings detectives on 5979 7850 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Camera used to tracks ‘hot’ cat THE cat on a hot tin roof scenario was overturned on Saturday when Hastings firefighters were able to track down a hot cat probably born in a roof. Called in to help by the RSPCA, the brigade turned out to a house in Victoria St, Hastings, where a man believed he could hear the “sounds of a cat” coming from inside a wall. A thermal imaging camera showed a hot spot in the wall, probably caused
by a live animal. Pinpointing the area was easy with a read-out on the camera’s screen. A spot was marked on the wall between two studs and, once a relatively small section of plaster was removed, the kitten was freed. “We’ve used the camera before, but mainly for fire-related work,” Hastings CFA captain Colin Cook said. “It’s used to find hot spots after a fire,
power points that may be overheating and when we’re searching for people.” Captain Cook said the house owner believed the kitten had been born to a neighbour’s cat in the roof. The brigade’s administration support officer Andrew Bartells said the cat rescue had been a good opportunity to use the $15,000 camera. “The RSPCA called for our help, but didn’t know we had the camera.”

Mission accomplished: Volunteers and Parks Victoria used rolls of coconut fibre and planted thousands of plants to protect historical Aboriginal sites at Devilbend Reserve.
Protection for Aboriginal history WORK to protect historically significant Aboriginal “stone scatter sites” has been completed at Devilbend Natural Feature Reserve, near Moorooduc. The work at Daangean Point was undertaken by Parks Victoria, community group volunteers, Bunurong Land Council, Boonwurrung Foundation and traditional owners. Sally Nowlan of Parks Victoria said Aborigines had in the past made stone tools, hunted or camped near the sites. The stones were found about five or six metres from the high water level of the former reservoir, which was commissioned in 1965.
Ms Nowlan said Aborigines would have fished in the creek that was subsumed by the reservoir. “The stones are where the bank of the river or creek would have been,” she said. Large rolls of coconut fibre have been used to protect eroding banks above the water’s edge and culturally significant areas have been covered with geotextile matting, topsoil and mulch. About 4000 plants grown by Seawinds Nursery volunteers have been planted. “A lot of time and hard work has gone into protecting the culturally
significant areas. It’s been a real joint effort that’s bought together many different people and groups, all with a connection to this special place,” ranger Georgia Kerr said. “Working together on these cultural sites has resulted in a sharing of knowledge, cultures and interests for everyone involved. “The diverse history of previous land use right across the peninsula makes it important to ensure sites like Devilbend are preserved and protected for the future.” The reserve was opened on Saturday.

At Hastings Family Dental we believe that caring for your children’s teeth from an early age is of the utmost importance. Children’s teeth need to be looked after gently and carefully. Baby teeth or primary teeth help children to speak clearly and chew, they also pave the way for secondary teeth. By following a simple dental routine, you can help give your children healthy teeth and gums. It is very important not to wait until your child experiences a toothache to visit the dentist. By having routine check-ups from an early age, it can help to eliminate the fear of the dental setting and establish a good dental routine they can follow throughout their lives. The first visit is usually a short one. Our aim is to give your child a chance to get to know our fantastic dental team and experience our modern clinic in a friendly and non-threatening manner. During this visit our dental team will do the following: Cavity risk assessment Examine your child’s teeth for decay Examine your child’s gums and soft tissue for disease or problems Evaluate the way your child’s teeth fit together, “the bite”. Identify any potential problems or deleterious habits. Show you and your child how to properly clean his or her teeth at home.

Devilbend open but doubts remain By Mike Hast DEVILBEND Reserve was officially opened on Saturday, but the battle between environmentalists, government and fishing groups is far from over. Parks Victoria’s newest reserve was opened by Water Minister Peter Walsh, bringing to fruition more than 12 years of planning and negotiation. Now called Devilbend Natural Features Reserve, the 1000-hectare reserve has an entrance gateway, asphalt entrance road, sealed car park, picnic and barbecue facilities, walking tracks and a boardwalk. Controversially, there are two fishing platforms and the 14,600-megalitre reservoir (an Olympic pool holds one megalitre) was stocked with 5000 brown and 5000 rainbow trout of “catchable” size by the Department of Primary Industries in September. DPI secretly released trout fingerlings in the reservoir more than two years ago, many of which were eaten by native perch. The Devilbend Foundation, a coalition of 35 peninsula, state and national environment groups representing 60,000 members and supporters in Victoria, has for more than 10 years been trying to dissuade the government from allowing recreational fishing in the reserve as well as horse riding. The foundation has consistently said allowing recreational fishing would compromise the natural values of the reserve. Former foundation president Roger Richards, also a member of Birdlife Australia, stated two years ago an
Arthur Rylah Institute study commissioned by Parks Victoria that detailed the detrimental effects of stocking the reservoir with trout had been ignored by DPI. Trout compete for the same invertebrate food as the endangered bluebilled duck and other vulnerable water birds at Devilbend, he said. Competing interests of anglers and environmentalists were on display during the opening on Saturday. Foundation members posed for photographs under a banner and several made pointed statements criticising authorities allowing fishing in the reserve during official proceedings, which included speeches by Mr Walsh, Hastings MP Neale Burgess, Parks Victoria’s Chris Hardman, and Parks Victoria board chair Andrew Fairley. As if to underline Devilbend Foundation concerns about reserve visitors affecting the flora and fauna “lifeboat”, at least one angler was ordered by a Parks Victoria ranger to leave a no-go area. On Sunday a person in an inflatable dinghy was spotted on the reservoir, which is against reserve rules. The Devilbend Foundation has called on the state government to bring in tougher rules to police the reserve. The News understands the rules are being drafted, but have not yet been approved by the Department of Sustainability and Environment. On Saturday, Peter Walsh said: “This is the first time the public has had access to this site since it was formally transferred to the Crown in
2006, after the reserve was decommissioned as a water supply facility. “As well as improving fishing access to the site, DPI has stocked the reservoir with brown trout and rainbow trout, boosting recreational fishing opportunities in time for the opening. “This is a wonderful opportunity for the public to get out in nature and enjoy this great new reserve – and hopefully land a fish.” Mr Walsh acknowledged the many stakeholders and community groups that had contributed to the planning of the reserve, including the Devilbend Foundation, the Friends of Daangean Point, Bunurong Land Council, VRFish, peninsula angling clubs and the Future Fish Foundation. “The Devilbend Foundation and its affiliated community groups have campaigned for many years to ensure the planning would protect the natural values of the reserve,” Mr Walsh said. Neale Burgess said visitors could enjoy direct access to the water’s edge with extensive walking tracks and a boardwalk. “The area of the reserve available for park visitors to explore has increased sixfold, with an additional 30 hectares being opened up,” he said.

Yacht snags bay beacon By Mike Hast SOUTHERN Peninsula Rescue Squad came to the aid of a charter yacht tangled in a South Channel beacon tower off Portsea last Saturday week. The squad was contacted by water police at about 5.30pm and asked to attend the scene where it arrived at about 6pm. Ten passengers aboard Sorrento Sailing Escape’s 12-metre (40-foot) Beneteau class yacht were transferred to the squad’s rescue boat Southern Peninsula 1. The yacht’s skipper and rescue volunteers then pondered how to disentangle rigging that had been snagged on a sign atop the No 4 marker, which indicates the northern side of the channel. Sorrento-based commercial mariner Andrew Mackinnon – a “ship spotter” well known for his photos of boats and ships that use Port Phillip and Western Port – motored to the site after being alerted by the skipper aboard the car ferry Sorrento. Using bolt cutters from the rescue squad, Mr Mackinnon climbed to the top of the tower and cut wire and ropes from the mast that had wrapped around the tower, sending the mast crashing into the water and freeing the French-built yacht. The mast had been broken in three pieces during the incident. Mr Mackinnon had serviced similar beacons in the past. “The only damage I could see was to rollers designed to keep seabirds off the structure,” he said. Eileen Murray of the rescue squad said the yacht’s skipper, Andrew Rosa, was deeply embarrassed by the incident. “He said he’d taken his eye off the ball while watching a ship,” she said. Mr Rosa did not want to comment when contacted by The News. On Wednesday last week, contractors for the Port of Melbourne Corporation inspected and repaired the marker.

TRANSPORT Safety Victoria has warned recreational boaters to stay clear of big commercial ships after receiving more than 10 reports of near-misses in shipping channels and fairways in Victorian waters over the past four weeks. The most recent incident was on Friday 8 November when outbound cruise ship Sea Princess was forced to alter course out of the South Channel in Port Phillip to avoid a recreational boat. TSV maritime safety director Peter Corcoran said “recreational boats faced numerous dangers by anchoring or operating in areas where large commercial ships navigate” including Western Port. “While this incident thankfully resulted in no fatalities or serious injuries, it could have had catastrophic consequences. Recreational boat operators must not anchor in shipping channels or fairways, and must always steer clear of ships,” he said. “The speed of a commercial ship can be deceptive as they can travel at more than 20 knots.” The safety alert about the Sea Princess incident is on the TSV website at www.transportsafety.vic. gov.au

Thar they blow: Dolphin Research Institute’s Sue Mason, right, can recognise “her� dolphins by the shape of their fins.
‘Lucky’ researcher knows her dolphins By Keith Platt SUE Mason counts herself as a “lucky researcher�. The common dolphins she studies live in a relatively small, defined area of Port Phillip while other researchers must ply the oceans tracking super pods of the same species. No one knows when the short-beaked common dolphins called Port Phillip home, but ongoing studies by Ms Mason and the Hastings-based Dolphin Research Institute have shown that at least one female is already a grandmother. Ms Mason is regularly seen zigzagging in the institute’s boat within sight
of the shore between Safety Beach and Frankston to find the dolphin pod. She photographs them constantly and knows each of the 15 dolphins by sight. The institute and Ms Mason also keep track of Port Phillip’s estimated 120 resident bottlenose dolphins and another five that seem to have taken up residence in Western Port. To make identification easy, Ms Mason names the dolphins from marks on their dorsal fin, such as Top Notch, Square Notch, Tall Fin and Almost Clean Fin. Aerial and Esther (who appears to perform on cue for the camera) are an-
other two well-known members of the pod. Ms Mason told a meeting in Frankston to celebrate the institute’s 21st anniversary that the welfare of the dolphins could be gauged by the condition of their skin. Scars on the fin of Aerial’s calf showed it had been hit by a boat’s propeller; seven years later that same calf had become a mother. Early in 2011 Ms Mason became concerned when photographs showed severe skin lesions on two dolphins. “We saw dolphins with a lot of spots, but we now know that can be quite normal,� she said.

“They can occur because of environmental changes and the ending of the drought could have been one of the reasons.� The Department of Sustainability and Environment provided money for extra research and Ms Mason noted the lesions seen on Round Notch on 1 September had almost gone by the following month. “The dolphins are not dying; they get a few spots, but heal up. There is no behavioural change.� Ms Mason estimated that lesions on dolphins healed “300 times faster than they do on humans�. The lesions on dolphins presented
no danger to humans swimming in the same water. Ms Mason, who has just completed her PhD in ecology and acoustics at Curtin University, Western Australia, also keeps an eye out for the increasing number of whales entering Port Phillip. Having annually gone to Hawaii for eight years to “work on� humpbacks, she also has a photographic record of the flukes of whales in Port Phillip. “One humpback stayed 10 days and I occasionally see southern rights [whales],� she said. “I’m the lucky one [at the dolphin research centre] who gets to go out in boats.�

All so easel for this lateral thinking artist By Mike Hast ARTIST and illustrator Tony Barber clambered onto a chair to reach the top corner of his large painting. Leaning in and concentrating on applying a curve of paint, he lost his balance and crashed to the floor. Shaken and with an injured knee, he sat in a comfy chair to regain his composure and started thinking about the object of his downfall – the easel. Why had easels remained virtually unchanged since their invention? Was there a better way to make an easel? Where would you start on such a venture? He did some reading and found out the painter’s easel had been in use since the time of the ancient Egyptians. The Roman author Pliny the Elder wrote about easels shortly after the birth of Jesus. Barber was astonished. Painters had used basically the same set-up for more than 2000 years. He started a journey of invention that lasted four years and has created an easel with an ingenious device that allows a canvas or board to revolve 360 degrees and be set on any angle. He assembles the easels in a spare room at his home in Dromana and has been knocked out by praise from artists who have bought them.
“One painter in NSW told me I’d split the atom,” he says with a smile. “Another says he is earning twice as much because he paints twice as fast and the quality has improved.” A third, an award-winning artist who works on scraper boards, said being able to turn the easel with one hand while scratching or drawing with the other was much easier. Red Hill artist Gavin Byrt told Barber: “The easel has changed the way I paint. Being able to adjust the canvas to maximise the light, spin the easel to paint the edges of the canvas or tip it to a horizontal position for drawing and fine detail work is an amazing change. Such a revelation.” Barber’s journey of invention started when he asked artists how the standard wooden easel could be improved. “There were many false starts, thousands of hand-drawn blue line sketches and a wildly fluctuating shoestring budget,” he said. “Sometime I didn’t go near the project for many weeks.” Creating the method of attaching canvases and perfecting the swivel device atop the tripod was a process of trial and error. It saw Barber haunting seven component-making workshops on the peninsula where he asked machinists to make parts of stainless steel, aluminium, hard plastics and other materials, as well as getting la-
ser cutting and powder coating. “It was gratifying to work with these tradesmen and women. They’d see me arrive with folders of ideas and boxes of unfinished parts, ‘Oh, here comes that crazy Pommy inventor again’. “They were so generous with their advice and encouragement.” The finished easel is a revelation, one of those items you see and wonder why it hadn’t been done before. Barber has a version that stands on the floor and a tabletop model used by older artists who prefer to work sitting down. “So many people paint nowadays,” he said. “Not only professional artists, but also teachers, students, hobbyists, semi-professional, retirees and millions of people who are members of art clubs and societies. “Each one has their own painting style, physical limitations and equipment and materials preferences.” He said artists can work faster and the easel makes it physically easier to paint, reducing “the aches and pains artist of all ages endure”. “You can bring any part of your canvas directly to your brush at any height, angle or position.” Barber has set up a business to market his invention, which is called the ARTristic easel.

Inventive artist: Top, Tony Barber of Dromana has reinvented the painter’s easel so any part of a canvas can be positioned directly under a brush at any height, angle or position. Picture: Yanni Above, Tony Barber, left, with the original Aztecs playing at Surf City in Sydney in 1964.
Not the TV Tony Barber DROMANA’S easel inventor Tony Barber shares a name with the Sale of the Century TV quiz show host, but to many people he is more famous than the hyperactive quiz compere. Artist Tony Barber co-founded the seminal Australian rock ‘n’ roll band Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs. Born at Norwich in the United Kingdom, Barber was a lift operator, carpet salesman, folk singer and display manager at a department store before migrating to Australia in 1963 with $100 in his pocket. Two years later he was playing to thousands of screaming teenagers at the Myer Music Bowl with the wild man of Australian rock, Billy Thorpe. The two became lifelong friends, only separated by the untimely death of Thorpe in 2007. Barber is preposterously talented and has had dozens of creative jobs, but has always painted. On his CV is artist; author (35 books with sales of more than a million); illustrator; papercraft designer and teacher; inventor; designer of toys, gifts and crafts; children’s literacy and behavioural consultant; creative product consultant; children’s entertainer; public speaker; songwriter; retail store designer; and interior and window display consultant. Remember the soft toys Bananas in Pyjamas? Barber designed them. Remember the hit song Someday? Yep, Barber. How about those revolutionary three-dimensional paper sculptured mobiles from the 1970s? Barber. The Puggles series of books and toys? The children’s books Freaky Fearless Fred and the Bouncing Balls of Death and Freaky Fearless Fred and the Exploding Dwarf. And Sparkle the Magical Unicorn as well as Bullies and How to Drive them Bonkers. Music fans will know of his book Way Till You Drop, which described his experiences touring in the musical Long Way To The Top, the rock ‘n’ roll reunion tour of the top Australian artists from 1950 to 1970.
‘New age’ showing for Rotary art
Longevity in health work PENINSULA Health’s chief executive Sherene Devanesen has presented awards to staff who have spent more than 10 years with the organisation. Among the recipients was paediatrics nurse unit manager Helen Hutchins, who has spent 40 years with Peninsula Health.
Mercedes Williams, Janet Payne, Lorraine McPherson, Terence Hewens, Anne Donnelly and Patricia Kardinaal were awarded for 35 years of service. “It is marvellous to see so many employees celebrating long service. We thank all award recipients for their commitment to the health
service and helping us to build a healthy community,” Dr Devanesen said. Awarded: Helen Hutchins, left, after receiving her 40-year service award from Peninsula Health’s chief executive Sherene Devanesen.
NEXT year’s Mornington Art Exhibition held by the Rotary Club of Mornington is entering a new era of contemporary and traditional technology. The club will provide art show information online and in the publications of principal partner, the Mornington Peninsula News Group (publisher of The News). The exhibition will feature more than 800 paintings from peninsula, Victorian and interstate artists. In entering the world of modern media, the art show information and a display of paintings entered will be available at www.morningtonartshow. com.au Tickets for the opening night on Friday 18 January can also be bought online or from Farrell’s Book Shop, corner Main and Barkly streets, Mornington, or at Ken Cameron’s Menswear, 185 Main St, Mornington. Due to maintenance work on Peninsula Community Theatre, the show may move to The Studio, which is the building opposite the theatre. The feature artist will be Jane Henderson who paints peninsula seascapes and coastal scenes. Mornington Rotary was the establishment home of the Australian Rotary Health Fund, now one of the largest health research based funds in Australia. The initiative came from Rotarian Ian Scott in response to his concerns over the loss of young babies from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
The annual art exhibition is second only in size to the Camberwell Rotary Art show held later in the year. The exhibition has raised more than $700,000 in 41 years for use on local and international Rotary projects. The clock tower in Main St, Mornington, and three gazebo shelters have been recent projects funded from the art show. Alan Harwood is art show director and believes the show is “again on track to produce an outstanding art exhibition in January 2013”. Prospective sponsors can call Mr Harwood on 0413 082 992 or Peter Lawrence on 0418361001.

Horses take comfort in a new line of trees By Keith Platt MOST of us can appreciate the interaction between horse and rider. Our history reinforces the special relationship between animals and civilisation. We’re supposed to be best of friends with dogs, while horses have carried us and our belongings across continents. Steam trains and the horseless carriage (motor cars) lessened our reliance on four hoofed feet as a means of transport, but not our fascination with the equine brand. Horses continue to run courses (ask any gambler) and run families (ask any parents of horsemad children). Peter Horobin’s family is no exception. The Mornington-based saddler is a former jockey, the son of a jockey and has a brother (Mark) who is still light enough to continue as a jockey. Horses are in the Horobin blood. In 1970 Peter Horobin’s father Keith suffered a broken neck in a coal mine collapse on the New South Wales south coast. He recovered, decided life was too short, and took his wife and young family off to England hoping to pursue his passion for riding. No longer suited for the gallops, Keith Horobin was able to find rides on steeplechasers. After two years in the United Kingdom he took his family to Germany where there were more opportunities on the jumps track. Finding success, the Horobins stayed seven years, with then 15-year-old Peter becoming a jockey and apprentice saddler at Passier & Son. “I was making saddles while also riding,” Horobin says while sitting in his Mornington factory. “It’s definitely given me an advantage, because not many saddlers have been riders.” When the Horobins returned to Australia, Peter was 19 and his father was still riding steeplechasers. Then living on the Mornington Peninsula, Peter Horobin also was still riding horses, but gave up
being a jockey at 22 after “getting too heavy and having a few falls”. He also was too busy making racing saddles for other jockeys, first from a tin shed at home in Balnarring, then a garage, followed by a double garage and then a factory in Mornington. He moved to his present saddlery in Watt Rd 12 years ago. His son Rhys is a saddler, daughter Marlee makes fine leather handbags under the Marlee May label and wife Julie runs the office. Besides the family, there five other staff working at Peter Horobin Saddlery. Father Keith, now 71, still trains horses and gave up trackwork just two years ago. A couple of years ago Peter Horobin took a fresh look at saddle design, which he says has remained relatively unchanged for nearly a century. Drawing on his knowledge of riding and discussions with a horse vet, Horobin worked out a new design for the saddle tree, the shaped inner part of the saddle that spreads the load across a horse’s back. The stirrups are also attached to the tree. Horobin says his saddle tree minimises any impediment to the horse’s shoulder blades. His patented tree, made from nylon and strengthened with metal to allow maximum flex, is now being incorporated in racing and exercise saddles. “The tree allows horses to stride free, which is especially important in dressage,” Horobin says. “The rider has got to be comfortable for the horse, which then moves freely and naturally. “Other trees have corners that press through the saddle padding into the horse’s back. “No one before seems to have considered the comfort of the horse. “The trees worked really well in dressage so I thought, why not for racing?” Jockeys in France using the new “stride-free” saddles for trackwork reported they had made a positive difference. The horses “felt a lot lighter”. Small handmade racing saddles can weigh as

little as 400gms and cost $400-$700. The first batch of 10 racing saddles with the new tree has been made for stables near the famous Chantilly racecourse at Oise in France. Australian trainer Gai Waterhouse has ordered 15 of the exercise model. Other exercise saddles are being used by Mornington trainer Pat Carey and Cranbourne trainer Michael Kent for the French import Tac De Boistron. In the 1990s, Horobin’s handiwork provided winning seats for such track luminaries as Greg Hall, Darren Gauchi and Damien Oliver. Steven King had three different-sized Horobin saddles that he used when winning the trifecta of the Melbourne and Caulfield cups and Mackinnon Stakes aboard Let’s Elope in 1991. “I’m swinging back to racing [after years concentrating on dressage] with these new saddles and tree,” Horobin says. He also is about to get into the saddle, riding trackwork on an unnamed horse in which he has a half share. Up every day at 5am, Horobin takes the horse from Kelvin Southey’s Shandion Lodge stables to Mornington Racecourse. After a swim and a run, the four-year-old nuzzles up to Horobin as he leads her back to her stall. “If she runs as good as she looks, I’ll be happy,” he says, giving her a pat on the nose. “But she’s just one of a million horses that’s been bred.” QUICK - INSTALLED - GUARANTEED

A vet’s view MT Martha-based equine vet Dr John Bowers works with racehorses, mares and foals, competition horses, ponies and hacks. Research for his masters degree looked at the affects of a tight girth on the performance of racehorses. It also resulted in the design of a new girth that, according to Bowers, “should be developed with the new [Peter Horobin} saddle”. “Therefore, we are looking for a venture capitalist with long arms and deep pockets. People involved would be Professor Ron Slocombe – who I did my masters work with – Peter Horobin, contacts at CSIRO textiles and me.” Bowers says the basis of Horobin’s saddle tree design is sound. “Current trees have two points at each end facing downwards so, if you think about it, when the muscles along the back are contracting and, coupled with the weight of the rider, forces are being placed more over four points ventrally. “Peter’s tree should reduce point compression and distribute weight more evenly. “It would appear that Peter’s design will have less interference with the long muscles along the back and around the top of the shoulder. However, the proposition that it will improve the spine and lead to less problems with certain types of spondolytis is uncertain.”

Seal sleeps it off
Beached seal sleeps it off FOR seals, it seems there’s nothing like a good sleep after a fine day’s fishing. The beach in front of McCrae Yacht Club was the handiest place to come ashore on Tuesday last week for an Australian fur seal that ignored the usual traffic of beach walkers and joggers. Sleeping soundly, the seal only moved further up the beach when the wake of a passing ship washed across its tail. Signs were put up warning of the
seal’s presence and the need to keep clear. Wildlife rescuer Craig Thomson (pictured) first spotted the seal early in the morning as it made several forays in and out of the water. “It is a timely reminder that with the weather getting warmer, we share our beaches with wildlife and we should give them the space and respect they deserve,” he said. “While it is common for Australian fur seals to use the beaches to rest
during the day from the end of September through to April, most of the seals are yearlings finding their independence. “However, on occasions like today adult seals will use the beach to rest. It is estimated this seal would weigh 120-150 kilograms.” To report sick or injured wildlife, call Frankston-based Animalia Wildlife Shelter on 0435 822 699 or go to www.animaliawildlfe.org Keith Platt

Shutdown at Gunnamatta outfall By Keith Platt THE quality of water being discharged through the sewage outfall at Gunnamatta will drop next week while Melbourne Water works on its latest treatment equipment. The 350 million litres a day discharge will be Class C, below the purity that has been pumped into the ocean since new processes came on line in July. “A three- to four-day shutdown of the new advanced tertiary treatment stage at ETP [Eastern Treatment Plant, near Carrum] is required in mid-November to undertake important works on site,” general manager of asset planning Paul Pretto said. He said the plant’s $418 million upgrade was “nearing completion”. “The upgrade will add an advanced tertiary stage to the sewage treatment process at ETP; the plant, originally built in 1975, will be transformed into one of the most sophisticated largescale sewage treatment facilities in the world.” Environmentalists who have battled for decades for the outfall discharge to be cleaned up, will now focus on ending the outfall altogether. They say the discharge of treated water into the sea at a national park is harmful to the marine environment. Meanwhile, lower quality water from other peninsula sewage treatment plants will continue to be discharged at Gunnamatta. “South East Water is also undertaking tertiary upgrades to its treatment plants at Mt Martha, Boneo and Somers, which discharge to Bass Strait via the same pipeline as ETP. The upgrades are expected to be completed in the second half of 2013,” Dr Pretto said. Commissioning of the advanced treatment stage began in July “and has resulted in a progressive improvement in the quality of water supplied to recycled water customers and water discharged at the plant’s outfall at Boags Rocks [near Gunnamatta]”.
End of the line: The sewage outfall that runs across Mornington Peninsula National Park at Gunnamatta delivers 350 million litres of treated sewage into the ocean each day. Picture: Yanni
“This has had a visible and positive impact on the marine environment at the outfall at Boags Rocks. Noticeable benefits include less colour, foam, and better water clarity. “We expect to meet our environmental targets by the end of the year and begin supplying Class A standard recycled water in 2013.” Drr Pretto said the planned shutdown would have no impact on the supply of Class C recycled water “however customers and observers at the Boags Rocks outfall may notice a temporary change in water quality back to conditions as they were before commissioning of ETP tertiary upgrade project began in July this year”. Melbourne Water will continue to meet its EPA licence requirements throughout the shutdown, and is keeping EPA Victoria informed.
The upgrade will add an advanced tertiary stage to the sewage treatment process. It is providing significant environmental benefits by improving the quality of the plant’s discharge at Boags Rocks on the Mornington Peninsula and increasing the standard of recycled water produced at the plant, Dr Pretto said Once completed, the plant will treat more than 100 billion litres of wastewater to Class A recycled water standard each year. Major construction works to build the new advanced tertiary treatment stage began in early 2010 and were completed midyear. The plant is expected to be fully operational later this year with Class A recycled water available progressively down the South East Outfall pipeline from mid-2013.

Stars shine for shorts
Screen winner: Toast by David McIntosh is screened to crowds on the foreshore at Rosebud during last weekend’s Peninsula Short Film Festival. Pictures: Yanni
STARS filled both the night sky and the red carpet as celebrities Lachy Hulme, Firass Dirani, Jane Hall, Steve Vizard, Carla Bonner and Kerry Armstrong arrived for the start of the 2012 Peninsula Short Film Festival. Now in its second year, the festival was held on Rosebud foreshore’s Village Green. About 1000 people listened to music from Paul Barry, Shred the Evidence, Terry Serio and Russell Robertson and watched more than an hour’s worth of short films. The 12 short films covered subjects such as horseracing, pregnancy, death and surfing. The festival’s director, actor Steve Bastoni, said the event offered “not only an opportunity for filmmakers to receive industry acknowledgment, but also a credible platform to launch a filmmaking career”. Judges Lachy Hulme, Firass Dirani and Jane Hall awarded the $5000 winner’s cheque to Toast by David McIntosh. Young Heart by Christian Kennedy came second ($2500) and The Racecaller by Jack Wynne third ($1250).
Removal of lookout tower a travesty COMMENT By Fred Wild THERE’S not much left of Garden of the Moon atop Arthurs Seat, which was a thriving tourist destination back in my mother’s day. In the 1930s (when the lookout tower was erected) there was a camera obscura, a wishing well, a replica of the Brussels Manneken Pis statue, a little boy piddling into the wishing well, and you could nurse a koala. The Manneken Pis (Dutch for little man pee) was a real shock to us kids who couldn’t understand why a statue could be so rude but we couldn’t. Garden of the Moon was our mother’s favourite haunt as it was to thousands of people, us kids included. It was built in the times of Spencer Jackson the entrepreneur and Howard Lawson the architect – men with vision. There was no chairlift in our mum’s time, not even when we were growing up in Dromana. I would clamber up the mountain as a seven or eight-year-old on a regular basis and climb the tower, too, if it was open. We all did. It was a magic place and the view was amazing – light years ahead of what you would see from the chairlift. If Parks Victoria did not commit a travesty on 12 September when it smashed the iconic tower to smithereens, then it must certainly be held accountable for neglecting it for so many years to the point it was deemed “beyond repair”. While Parks insisted it condemned the tower for safety reasons, it is well known the chairlift consortium led by Simon McKeon told a public meeting last year the tower was in the way of its planned attraction and would have to go.
The president of our local historical society reminded Mr McKeon the tower was heritage listed and permission would be required to destroy it. I left the meeting content that if Parks Victoria bowed to the consortium’s request, there would at least be a fight when it came to the heritage protection of the building. Last year a “safety fence” appeared around the tower, supposedly to protect inquisitive visitors from “falling debris”. I wrote to Parks Victoria reminding it that state and national parks are home to thousands of giant trees that, by their nature, drop huge branches regularly where visitors wander at leisure. I asked if trees also would have to be fenced. I ceased this line of questioning when I realised it might spark a law to that effect. I was taken by surprise when hearing the death sentence of the tower had been handed down and, furthermore, that it was not heritage listed after all. Little remains of the “old” Arthurs Seat and Garden of the Moon – a fragment of the wishing well but not much else. What has gone has been replaced with emptiness. I thought that, with so much of our history lost, lessons would be learned and they would never destroy our iconic tower. But they did. One of our favourite photos of our mother is of her as a teenager sitting on one of the pillars at the entrance to Arthurs Seat Park. Her descendants love to be photographed sitting in the same spot. I now fully understand why the original inhabitants of this wonderful country treasure their sacred sites. Fred Wild is a self-described “hobby historian” living in Rye.
Good old days: A teenage Olive Wild with Pat and Norman Willmott on the Arthurs Seat pillar that still stands.

AROUND THE REGION
Farmers’ market a fresh take on produce By Cameron McCullough MORE than 2000 people went to the first farmers’ market in Mornington, delighting organisers and stallholders. Highlights included food stalls, live music and children’s activities. Padua College senior school’s concert band played a variety of music including classic film tunes such as the Magnificent Seven, television themes and traditional concert band music. Children flocked to the face-
painting stall and made their own scarecrows from peninsula straw and recycled clothing. Shoppers bought breakfast from the community-run barbecue and hot food vendors while perusing an array of fresh produce. The market was officially opened by food writer Richard Cornish, best known for articles on local and sustainably sourced food. MPs David Morris and Bruce Billson were spotted in the crowd. Organised by Mornington Chamber of Commerce, the market
will work toward accreditation with the Victorian Farmers’ Markets Association, a program that ensures authenticity among stallholders and support for Victorian agriculture. Mornington Farmers’ Market will be the second accredited market on the peninsula after Mt Eliza Farmers’ Market, which has been operating for about two and a half years and attracts more than 1500 people on the fourth Sunday each month. A survey suggests most people will attend both markets, a chamber spokesman said.
Snacktime: Ashley, Brianne, Paige and Bibi Lafleur.
Mornington’s market features a range of produce from around the Mornington Peninsula and regional Victoria, including organic sourdough bread, cheese, grass-fed meat, peninsula seafood, organic fruit and vegetables, free-range eggs, honey, home-made conserves and sweet treats. “Through buying directly from producers, consumers have the chance to learn about where their food comes from; seasonality; how different foods are grown, reared or made; and how making conscious
Fresh: Christophe sells organic carrots.
food choices can be very rewarding,” market manager Janette Smith said. The market is at picturesque Mornington Park, which boasts sea views, a children’s playground, expansive lawn and is close to Mothers Beach, the pier and Main Street shopping precinct. The market is on the second Saturday of every month from 8.30am to 1pm. Details: Mornington Chamber of Commerce, 5975 4522.
Cool: Fraser Longhurst enjoyed the face painting.

FISHING
Forget the crowd, find your own top spot ON THE LINE By Paul “Tracker” Pingiaro SOMETIMES in fishing you have to break new ground. So many people follow the crowds to nowhere – one boat picks a random spot, the next boat out has no idea so they join them and before you know it 30 boats are fishing an area that hold no fish. Anglers need to get out and break new ground. There is no better feeling than finding your own secret spot, to find a reef or weed bed that nobody else knows about. But how to do this? Well, put simply, time and effort. You need to use the combination of a fish/depth finder and GPS. When looking for new snapper grounds, anglers should look for structure rather than schools of fish on the sounder. Schools of fish can move quickly so by the time you position the boat and set the anchor, the fish have moved on. When you’re fishing over mud and sand, look for weed and tube worms. These are identified by one pixel wide by 2-3 pixel high returns emanating from the seabed. These returns indicate structure, and it’s structure where the fish expect to find food. Look at it this way: if you’re travelling down a highway and get hungry, you are more likely to get a feed from a food outlet rather than eat a randomly disposed hamburger on the side of the road. Fish are the same. By fishing the structure you are adding to the menu and increasing the chances of a hook-up.
Someone has to do it: Jacko Muir and Matt Hunt of Matthew Hunt Fishing Services show off a snapper.
To get the optimum out of a sounder, its sensitivity should be set to the point where the “clutter” (the snow-like returns on the display) disappears. This is typically between 70-90 per cent of the maximum sensitivity setting. All sounding should be done at a speed no greater than five knots. Whenever you find a good location, mark it with the GPS and record the latitude and longitude in a fishing diary along with a few details of the spot, for
example, tide, time, fish, bait, moon and weather. This will not only give you a hard copy of the hotspot if the GPS loses its memory, but also will provide a record to track fish patterns and favoured conditions giving an insight into fish habits and allowing you to better predict where the fish will be. At Mornington Boat Hire last week, clients continued to see a good run of snapper, but the fish have been best
midweek not on the weekend. There have been some good flathead with each week producing at least half a dozen over 50cm. While the snapper have been to five kilograms and the fishing good for Mornington, it’s only going to get better till mid-December. Whiting and the squid were quiet last week. Boats departing from Carrum have been doing very well on snapper.
While they have been caught during the day, early morning has been best. Pilchards, squid and silver whiting have been best baits. If its whiting you’re after, Western Port is the best destination. Jonny of Yaringa Boat Hire (0428 001 286) reports whiting are going from strength to strength. He said snapper had been hot and cold, but other species like gummy shark, flathead, mullet and salmon have kept anglers on their toes. Best time has been on the outgoing tide. Off the surf beaches we have seen some good catches of salmon and a few flathead through the day and some nice gummy sharks at night. Best beaches have been Gunnamatta and Kilcunda. Bass Strait has produced good gummy sharks, a few arrow squid, some nice flathead and snapper. Flinders Bank and the back of Rye has been the most productive. The fresh water Devilbend Reserve is now open to the public. Anglers fishing the two pontoons have landed redfin to 30cm and the government put brown and rainbow trout in the reservoir in September. Tight lines and calm seas. Paul “Tracker” Pingiaro has been fishing since he could hold a rod and stay in the boat. He has boat hire businesses in Mornington and Yaringa Boat Harbour in Somerville. He has been a fishing writer for magazines and brings his knowledge to MP News Group for season 2012-13.

Yogurt: Loads of calcium, full of potassium, riboflavin, magnesium and phosphate. Help maintain gut health and reduce the incidence of age-related intestinal illness and osteoporosis Broccoli: Loaded with vitamin C, folic acid and carotenoids, packed with vitamin A. Can protect cells from the damage of free radicals, enhance immune system function. Said to help prevent a number of cancers.
Goji berries: Great source of B vitamins and antioxidants and contains several amino acids. Can improve blood circulation, strengthen the limbs, improve eyesight, increase libido and boost immune function. Olive oil and flaxseed oil: Contains polyphenols, powerful antioxidants that may help prevent age-related diseases. Fish: Source of omega-3 fats, which help prevent cholesterol build up in arteries and protect the heart Raw nuts: Rich sources of unsaturated fats, offers benefits similar to those associated with olive oil.

Early tale of a Christmas turkey By Stuart McCullough SATURDAY 17 November was the auspicious day I encountered my first Christmas carol for the year. I had made a dash to the local supermarket and was engaged in the eternal struggle of “white bread or multigrain” when I heard the mordent tones of Joy to the World wafting through the aisles like a giant dose of audio flatulence. Christmas may well come but once a year, but apparently no such restriction applies to Christmas carols. Don’t get me wrong; I love Christmas. I especially love Christmas at Christmas time, rather than midway through November. It wasn’t always this way. There were years in my early 20s when I regarded the entire yuletide experience as an inconvenience and an unwelcome disruption to work. On the day itself, I was very disorganised. If I’m being honest, the gifts I purchased for family members were only a notch or two above a lump of coal. It is enough to say that my sisters received a lifetime’s supply of potpourri during this period. Scented candles, vouchers and – on one particularly desperate occasion – a chicken torpedo from the 7-Eleven; I was guilty of all this and more. A friend of mine quite rightly told me I was a Grinch. This was probably the kindest description for in truth,
when it came to Christmas, I was a turkey. Once there was a time when I took the TAC advertisements very much to heart and quit driving. Getting to Tyabb on Christmas Day was an ordeal of such blistering magnitude that it made The Amazing Race look like a quick trip to the shops. The funny thing about catching public transport on Christmas Day is you know all your fellow passengers are in the exact same position. Everyone is expected somewhere. We all had
people waiting for us. In an odd way, knowing this gave the entire trip a slightly melancholy feeling. Or maybe I just knew I was bringing poor gifts. Christmas changed for our family when one of my sisters had a baby. Seeing the enthusiasm that Brodie had for the whole spectacle fundamentally changed my view. It made me think back to my own childhood, when Christmas morning was all about a series of early excursions down the hallway to conduct reconnaissance as to what lay underneath the tree.
As there were five of us, it was a duty that we shared, eagerly reporting back to our siblings. It was quite magical. As various nephews and nieces continued to materialise, this began a period best described as the “overcompensating” years. Where once I treated preparations for the big day with all the enthusiasm of a dental appointment, I then went as far as possible in the opposite direction. Forget 17 November; my preparations started in August. I planned Christmas Day with all the care of a military incursion. I would develop themes for each year and place the gifts in matching boxes. The results were stunning. When lined up, the gifts looked like the Chinese army on parade. But the family kept on getting bigger. Where once we could easily fit around the family table, there were now rows of trestle and card tables. It’s one step short of stadium seating. There were children everywhere. To see them stare in open wonder at the tree and the gifts that lie like fruit beneath it is to be reminded of what it is to be young. In fact, the numbers are so great that we now run a Kris Kringle system. Come August, it means that instead of preparing for Christmas, I now twiddle my thumbs. Perhaps this explains my reaction to hearing Joy to the World at the super-
market. I’m just not ready. To hear Christmas carols at this time doesn’t feel like a celebration so much as an attempt to convince me. The song may well speak of joy and delight, but what it’s really saying is Pull yourself together! It’s time to start shopping for Christmas. While some people might reject such blatant Pavlovian conditioning like a bad tenant, I am unable to resist. These days, I no longer celebrate Christmas once but on at least four occasions in as many locations. Maybe the supermarket is right and I really ought to start in November so that the whole thing feels less hectic. For this reason, I have stocked up on crackers, mince pies, candy canes and shortbread. In a case of what I fear is going way, way too early, I’ve also bought a bucket of prawns. I’m not sure how good they’ll be by 25 December though. I realise that there is such a thing as green prawns, but I doubt that they’re meant to be quite so luminously green or, for that matter, furry. In the end, perhaps it matters little. As I sit here, paper hat on my head and cracker at the ready, it occurs to me family is all that really matters on such a day. And no one, not even a supermarket, can convince me otherwise. www.stuartmccullough.com

An exciting and diverse range of ethical stalls and exhibitors children's activities . live music . plastic free byo reusable shopping bag The Balnarring Community Fair is a one day event that aims to inform, educate and inspire the wider community to work toward a more sustainable future.
Link lad: Jarrod Harrison at the Peninsula Link freeway section where a community day will be held.
MEMBERS of the public will be able to walk along a section of the Peninsula Link freeway at a community day hosted by project company Southern Way and construction firm Abigroup. “This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to walk on the freeway before it opens to traffic in early 2013,” Minister for Roads Terry Mulder said. “Representatives of the project will answer questions about construction and give people an insight about what’s to come in the months leading up to opening.” The site will be open at the Cranbourne Rd interchange between 10am and 4pm on Sunday 25 November to showcase progress on the project. “As well as being able to walk a section of the freeway between Cranbourne and Skye roads, there will be entertainment and activities including a car display and giant super screen
showing the latest flyover video and construction highlights. “More than 20 businesses and community groups will have a marquee on the road to promote the region. If you’re interested in new vehicle technology, don’t miss the electric vehicle display featuring cars like the Nissan Leaf and Holden Volt.” The Peninsula Link project is partnering with Rotary Club of Frankston North for the event to raise funds for Rotary projects. Gold coin donations are welcome and snacks can be purchased. Access to the freeway is via Centro Karingal shopping centre with limited parking available. Follow traffic controllers’ directions or, if possible, travel by public transport to the event. Bus route information and details about the event is at www.peninsulalink.com.au and www. facebook.com/linkingmelbourne

A fanciful look at history ROYALS, pop idols, leaders, space explorers and writers “visited” Balnarring Primary School on Thursday night, at least in spirit if not personally. Most of the famous, important and prominent people chosen by pupils for their dress-ups are no longer alive, but their exploits and influence remains. Grade three and four pupils researched and dressed as their chosen personalities and were available to be quizzed about their histories.
Mercury’s Rising: Emily made a flamboyant Freddie Mercury, the lead singer of rock ‘n’ roll band Queen.
Winging it: Amelia dressed as her namesake, aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart.
Champion choice: Rowan came as pop star Freddie Mercury.
Royal looker: Mikaela looked a picture dressed as Princess Diana.
Great Scot: Joaquin made a magnificent Robert the Bruce.
All shook up: Corey dressed as the ever-cool Elvis Presley.
Spacegirl: Anna came as the first man on the moon, Neil Armstrong.
Politician: Brianna was Indian prime minister Indira Gandhi.

Baxter undefeated as Crib slide down PROVINCIAL By IT Gully BAXTER sits undefeated in second place on the MPCA Provincial table after smashing Long Island on Saturday. Going into day two of the match and having the Islanders on the ropes, Baxter wasted no time finishing them off, successfully defending its own meagre total of 107. Adrian Mack snared 5/15 and Dale Irving 4/42 as Baxter rolled the home side for just 71. The reigning premier went in for another bat and finished at 2/64. Mt Eliza continues to work its way
back from losing points from two of its wins after fielding a player outside the player points system. The Mounties have won all four of its games this season, but have just 24 points. On Saturday it defeated Rye. Defending 9/245, Mt Eliza bowled out the opposition for 224. Justin King was superb for the Demons with 108, and Tommy Barrand was the next best with the bat, scoring 29. Lyle House snared 5/61 for the Mounties, giving him a league-high 15 wickets for the season. Long Island’s Greg Lamb has 13 wickets, and Jordan Pomeroy of Mt
Martha and Andrew King of Sorrento have 11 wickets each. Moorooduc defeated Heatherhill by 58 runs. Chasing 220 for victory, the Ducs were well led by Ben Williams, who finished not out 92, while skipper Bobby Williams got among the runs with 66. Luke Sheenan was also impressive with 37 and Stuart Plunkett continued his good season with 36. The Moorooduc top order held together well and the results showed with a total of 9/277. Brett Maxwell was the pick of the bowlers for the Hills with 5/68 from 17 overs. Mornington is fifth on the ladder
after chasing down Crib Point’s impressive total of 258. The Doggies, led by Ben Clements with an unbeaten 81 and Rob Hearn with 68, grabbed a thrilling five-run victory, finishing on 9/263. Anthony Gapes made 44 for Mornington. Henry Dolphin was the best of the Magpies’ bowlers with 3/88, and Luke Herrington claimed two wickets. The Magpies are now outside the top seven and losing touch with the top four. Sorrento is top of the table after smashing Mt Martha to the tune of 150 runs. Chris King made the most of his
opportunities when he was thrown the ball, snaring 5/18, while A J King picked up 2/20. The Reds were rolled for 137, Chris Holcombe top-scoring with 30. Peninsula Old Boys is in third place after winning outright against Ballam Park. POB made 202 and 4/112, far too strong for the Knights’ 120 and 99. Adam Jones was the best of the Old Boys bowlers in the second innings, picking up 4/32, which gave him seven wickets for the match. Dylan O’Malley snared 3/15 in the second innings and Wade Pelzer picked up 2/6 in a rare bowling stint.
Langy solid and on top as Somie hold out Hastings in frantic finish DISTRICT By IT Gully LANGWARRIN is atop the MPCA District table after a solid batting performance against Baden Powell on Saturday. A win to the Braves would have put them in second place on the ladder, equal with the Kangas, but the team is in seventh place, two games behind the ladder leaders. Simon McEvoy was not out overnight for the Kangas and finished on 31, while David Ross got some muchneeded batting practice and remained at the crease at the end of the innings on 39. Andy Johnson top-scored for the Kangas with 49, giving him 274 runs for the season. Only Dean Polson of Carrum with 278 runs is ahead of him. Somerville moved to fourth place with a tight, five-run victory against Hastings. Defending 9/198, the Eagles dismissed the Blues for 193. It was a frantic match in the end. The Blues were in big trouble at 6/87 when Luke Hewitt went for 23 and keeper Damien Smith was sent packing for a

duck. Timmy Birch (39) and Andrew Booth (53) came together at the crease and set about getting their side back in the contest. The pair put on 101 before Birch became Peneeth Goonawardena’s only wicket for the afternoon. With just a handful of overs remain-

ing, the Blues had a crack, but when Booth became Aaron Kaddatz’ third victim, the match was over. Ben Delaney was the pick of the Somerville bowlers with 3/30, Kaddatz claimed 3/55 and Ross Cordeaux 2/37. Kaddatz sits in second place on the
wicket-takers table with 11, two behind Langwarrin’s Dwayne Doig. Boneo sits in third place on the ladder after a comfortable 100-plus run win against Seaford. Defending 210, the Tigers needed to be at their best to defend the total. What Seaford didn’t count on was Alex Petrovic blasting a magnificent 158. Petrovic now has 203 runs for the season. Ryan Jellie hit 41 and Cam Williams 31 as Boneo amassed 312. Andrew McMannis was the best of the Seaford bowlers with 4/79. Carrum slipped out of the top four and Delacombe Park rocketed to second place after winning comfortably on Saturday. The Lions were defending 180, which was always going to be tough against the Parkers. Chris Brittain led the way with 86, while the evergreen Nick Christides was impressive with 80. Simon Dignan hit 36, giving the Parkers a mighty total of 9/255. Main Ridge had a comfortable victory over Frankston YCW, winning by more than 100 runs.
The Stonecats batted first and lasted just 58 overs, bowled out for 131 with Dil Pageni top-scoring with 29. Brent Jones was the best of the Main Ridge bowlers with 3/22 off 10 overs. Gareth Wyatt, Jason Albress and Jordan McCulley each claimed two wickets. Main Ridge then batted for 56 overs, scoring 8/223, Ed Aarons top-scoring with 72, Brendan Rossborough 33, Albress 33 and Jones 34. Andrew Kitson bowled 17 overs for a return of 3/82 for the Stonecats, and Adam Muirhead picked up 3/39 off nine overs. Muirhead is equal second on the wicket table with 11. Flinders dominated Pines on Saturday, whipping them by 80 runs before keeping them in the field in the second innings while they put together 1/124 in their second innings. Matt Burns was on fire for Flinders, picking up six wickets, including the prize scalp of Ricky Ramsdale for a duck. Burns finished with 6/28, and Gerry Morsman picked up 2/17. Brennan Gillies was unbeaten on 63 for Flinders in their second innings.

Unpretentious may run in Newmarket ALTHOUGH four-year-old Unpretentious was narrowly beaten in the weight-for-age Kevin Heffernan Stakes (1300m) at Sandown Park on Saturday, his performance vindicated trainer Nikki Burke’s assessment of the gelding. “I think he is a top class sprinter in the making,” Nikki said of Unpretentious, who has had only 10 starts for three wins, a second and two thirds. “I am already thinking about preparing him for the Group 1 Newmarket Handicap (1200m) at Flemington in March and now I am sure I’m on the right track.” After being slow away, Unpretentious ran into a traffic jam early in the straight before rattling home to finish third, a half-length behind Group 1 winner Mid Summer Music. Significantly, Hot Snitzel, who split the pair, is a Group 1 performer. Jockey Craig Williams told Burke the circumstances of the race had counted against Unpretentious. “Once he missed the start, he got further back than anticipated and had trouble obtaining a clear run,” Williams said. “Carrying the 59kg, which is about 4kg more than he would have had in a handicap, he took longer to accelerate once I got him into the open. He probably should have won.” Williams is heading to Tokyo to ride

in the World Jockeys Championship and the Japan Cup [2400m] on Sunday. His mount Rulership won the QE II Cup in Hong Kong in April and will be going in as one of the favourites. Jakkalberry who finished third in the Melbourne Cup, Mount Athos who came fifth, and eighth placed Red Cadeaux all will contest the Japan Cup. Judging by his efforts in the Melbourne Cup, when he passed 10 horses
in the home straight after being heavy bumped on two occasions, Mount Athos will be hard to beat. In a change of fortunes his trainer Luca Cumani, who has two Japan Cups to his credit, broke through for his first metropolitan winner in Australia when Ibicenco took the Sandown Cup (3200m) on Saturday. The victory would have been a relief for Cumani, who has had a frustrating time in the years since beginning to send horses Down Under.
The winning sequence of Cranbourne-trained horses continued at Moonee Valley last Friday when Doug Harrison – Craig William’s uncle – notched up a double. Harrison, the son of the legendary Tom (T J) Harrison scored with Alrouz and Valrouz. It was a unique feat as Alrouz and Valrouz are brothers by Elvstroem out of Fayrouz. The firm tracks in Melbourne this spring worked against six-year-old
mare Exceptionally. But after her gallant second to Tanby in the Group 2 Zipping Classic, trainer Terry O’Sullivan said he would be targeting the Sydney Cup (3200m) at Randwick in April. “Leading up to the Zipping Classic, she had an interrupted campaign because of the hard tracks,” O’Sullivan said. “I am hoping things work out better for her in the autumn. “It is often wet in Sydney at that time of the year and the kikuyu grass at Randwick generally ensures there is give in the ground, so we are keeping our fingers crossed.” An early look at Moonee Valley on Saturday – Isabella Snowflake, Burndiniburn, Obsidian Dragon, Chile Express, Commanding Time, City Of Song and Peahen. Horses to catch my eye over the past weeks are Kukla, Tai Tai Tess, Shewan, Edgewood, Thankgodyou’rehere, Angel Of Mercy, Crucial, Rock Robster, Vatican, Gotta Laugh and Outstandingly.

Tyabb roll Dales as teams tussle at the top SUB-DISTRICT By IT Gully TYABB stayed in touch with the top bracket in Subdistrict with a thrilling seven-run win against Pearcedale. Pearcedale was looking to remain undefeated at the top of the table with Rosebud, but the Panthers now sit outside the top four in fifth on the same points as seventh-placed Tyabb, fourth-placed Red Hill and sixth-placed Seaford Tigers. The Yabbies, defending 179, bowled extremely well, maintained a competitive spirit and eventually wore down the Panthers, who fell an agonising seven runs short (172). Things certainly looked grim for the Yabbies early, when the Panthers were cruising at 3/100, but the Yabbies snared three quick wickets to have the Panthers 6/116. With the dangerous Kaine Smith back in the sheds, the Yabbies looked to be on top until the seventh wicket saw
a 40-run partnership, and the Panthers needed just 24 runs to win with four wickets in hand. However, the run out of Brad Trotter for 24 saw the Yabbies regain the ascendancy. When Jack Raeside claimed Lachy Cross for 27, the game was all but over. Nathan Hudgson cleaned things up for the Yabbies and Tyabb grabbed 12 points. Seaford Tigers easily accounted for Dromana, winning by 130 runs on first innings. The Hoppers were bowled out for 78 before Seaford Tigers scored 7/208, Corey Hand top-scoring with 98. Dromana had another bat, Mark Whitehead scoring an unbeaten 115. They finished on 3/152, something that should have occurred in the first innings. Balnarring was defending 238 and now is in third place after beating Skye by three runs. Jason Hartigan top-scored for Skye with a half century and Rod Halbish made 46.
Mitch Kleinig and Brad Arnold bowled very well for Balnarring, picking up three wickets each. Rosebud’s dominance of the competition continued on Saturday when the team easily accounted for French Island. After scoring 8/297, the Buds rolled the Islanders for 173. Ben King top-scored for French Island with 83. Scott Millar was outstanding with the ball for the Buds with 6/98, and Jason Nagel claimed 3/64, giving him 17 wickets for the season, one behind Corey Hand. Red Hill won on first innings against Tootgarook in an exciting match. The Hillmen responded to Tootgarook’s 72 with 9/212 before sending the Tooters back in to bat. The visitors replied with 255, Matt Whelan topscoring with 76. The Hillmen had a crack at getting the 115 needed in just nine overs to claim an outright win, but finished on 4/70.

Firsts down by five in exciting chase HASTINGS CRICKET By Greg Bradshaw HASTINGS Firsts versus Somerville: Somerville 9/198 (Scott Phillips 5/80 and Tim Birch 2/53). Hastings began its run chase poorly, losing Issy Dias in the second over, 1/2. Brad Watson and Jake Hewitt got the runs ticking over before Watson was bowled for 15, 2/28 in only the 7th over. Phillips joined Hewitt, who was batting well, and added 32 runs before Phillips was bowled for 14. Luke Hewitt joined his brother but Jake was out soon after for 22, 4/68. Three wickets fell in quick succession when Hewitt chopped one on at 23, 7/87 in the 37th over. Tim Birch and Andrew Booth survived until tea, 7/104, then put together a good partnership as the target came in sight. Birch, who had worked hard, was caught at backward point for 39, ending an entertaining 90-run partnership, 8/177 with six overs to play and 22 runs to get. Nick Guest and Booth added 11 runs before Guest was given out LBW, 9/189 with 15 balls remaining. Carey Sawosz was last man in and in the last over Hastings needed 7 runs to win. A leg bye off the first ball got Booth back on strike but next ball saw Booth’s fine innings come to an end on 53, Hastings all out for 193. Seconds versus Somerville: Hastings 146 (C White 38, L Bradshaw 32 and A Vinson 30). Somer-

ville resumed on 0/40 with the bowlers making early inroads, taking three wickets in 4 overs, 3/56. The next pair dug in and rode their luck, going past the Hastings score and declaring at 4/210 off 47 overs. Vinson was the best of the bowlers taking 2/46 off 13 overs and White was unlucky, finishing with 1/55 off 15 overs.Batting again, Hastings was soon in trouble, falling to 3/25 before Phil Stone 52no and Brett Gent 33 took control and when stumps were drawn Hastings was on 4/108. The Thirds had a win after Rye forfeited. Fourths versus Boneo: Hastings put a patched up team on the park after players either pulled out
or did not appear. Winning the toss, Hastings batted and Chris Lehmann hit a rapid 31 before holing out, 2/50. Vincent Booth played his normal sheet anchor role as wickets tumbled around him, 7/76 after 27 overs. Greg Bradshaw joined Booth and they added 38 before Bradshaw was out for 26 with three overs to bat. Hastings managed to get to 126 with Booth finishing on 36 not out. Knowing they had to bowl well, a wicket fell in the third over, 1/6, but it was another 17 overs before Jaysen Bradshaw took the second wicket, 2/63. The next 60 runs then came at a rapid rate as Boneo wrapped up the game up in the 29th over, finishing
with 3/129. Gavin Doig bowled well, taking 1/15 off 5 overs, Bradshaw 1/14 off 5 and Chris Lehmann 1/33 off 5 overs. Under-15s versus Red Hill: Red Hill 9/204 (Brodie Prestage 3/30 and Lachlan Cox 3/20). Hastings opened with Matt Foy and Brodie Prestage and they compiled a crisp 54-run partnership before Foy was out for 29. A quick wicket fell, which bought Sean Hewitt to the wicket and with Prestage they added a match-defining 85 runs with both retiring on their highest scores of 50no. When Hewitt retired the score was on 3/156 with 10 overs to play. Small partnerships continued as the boys edged closer to victory target, and it was Jesse Moffatt’s cameo of 23no that secured a good win with the team finishing on 7/212. Under-13s versus Baden Powell: Hastings 120 (Shelby LothianBurdett 29 and Thomas Finn 19). Baden Powell resumed on 0/30 but Hastings’ bowlers found it hard going against a solid batting line-up and 51 runs in extras did not help as Baden Powell finished on 6/152 off 47 overs. Ryan McNamara took 2/10 off 5 overs, Bayde Wilson 1/21, Harrison Jansz 1/10, Jackson Coles 1/13 and Lothian-Burdett 1/18. Coming event: Sunday 2 December trip to Sandown Greyhounds.
