Trainer Guy Walter claimed his fourth Goulburn Cup yesterday when Straight Albert was produced late to score a last-stride win in the A$80,000 event.
Sent out at $4 with Kathy O'Hara aboard, the four-year-old came down the middle of the track to nail Scottish Border ($10) by a short neck. He ran the 1600m in 1:33.19, a record for the Cup.
Beaveroo ($13) finished three-quarters of a length behind Scottish Border with $3.70 favourite Nextanix fifth.
Walter won his first Goulburn Cup in 2003 with Market Unit and followed with Nothin' Leica (2004) and Willy Jimmy (2010).
