Aaron Bain Racing was delighted to partner with talented jockey Taylor Johnstone for her milestone 200th race winning ride at Morphettville on Saturday, October 10.Johnstone, 23, was aboard Winning All Round for trainers Aaron Bain &amp; Ned Taylor in the Hahn Handicap (1522m) at Morphettville and she could not have given it a better run.Well backed from $13 into $6, Winning All Round settled one wide behind the leaders early before coming with a strong run to score a length win from Damelli ($9.50) with Big Rita Jane ($8), three-quarters of a length away third.ABR has identified Johnstone’s talent in the saddle and the win was her 13th for the stable, with 26 placings.Trainer Ned Taylor said Winning All Round had deserved the victory.“He is a very honest horse,” Taylor said.“He tends to take a bit of work on the corner as he hits a flat spot.“He has been building this prep, and it was nice to see him put if all together today.“As a big, long horse, on the corner, he struggles to pick up ground, but when he came into the straight he picked up ground, hit top gear and went away with it.”Taylor said Winning All Round bounced between the training facilities at Angaston Park and Murray Bridge to have him right on race day.“He does his galloping work up the hill at Murray Bridge but in between runs he goes back to Angaston Park as he likes the environment up there to relax and the combination of both suits him well.Winning jockey Taylor Johnstone was relieved to chalk up her milestone win.“I had been counting down to my 200th,” Johnstone said.“It has been a long road from 190 to 200 but I’m definitely glad to reach it.“Winning All Round has been a super consistent horse.“I liked him from the moment I sat on him, but he was really green and didn’t know what he was doing.“In fact he lost his maiden on protest at his debut. He learnt from it and has built a nice career.“It was a nice win today.“My horse was going well in the straight and lengthened when he was challenged. The more I asked the more he lengthened and that is what I like about him.“He might even like a bit more ground in time.”

A late change of mind proved a winning decision with Stockman’s Choice scoring at Monday’s Labor Day meeting of the Gawler &amp; Barossa Jockey Club.Stockman’s Choice ($4) finished best to grab a neck victory in the Holdfast Insurance Brokers Maiden (1100m) from Madam Moneybags which had been sensationally backed from as much as $12 to start the $3 favourite. Brave Fortune ($7) was a half-length away third.Apart from the $12,500 first prize, connections also collected an additional $8360 from the Racing Rewards bonus scheme.The winner, a four-year-old gelding having just his third race start, is trained by Aaron Bain &amp; Ned Taylor and was ridden by Jackson Murphy.Bain revealed the decision to run at Gawler had only been made at 7am on Monday.“When Ned (Taylor), myself and Will (Racing Manager Will O’Malley) spoke on Sunday we thought the best option was to head to Mildura where we had accepted for a race on Tuesday,” Bain said.“However, when we woke on Monday and saw three scratchings from Gawler, our minds changed and we came here – for once we got it right.”Stockman’s Choice showed promise at his first two runs late last year which both resulted in fourths and indications were that he had improved with a good break.Bain said it had been a perfect ride by jockey Jackson Murphy.“Jacko stayed off the fence and got the perfect spot one-one,” Bain said.“He got out at the right time and hit the line full of running.“It was good to see the horse sharp enough to win at 1100 metres.“He will take plenty of improvement from that and as we step him out in trip will continue to improve.“I’m sure wherever we head he will be competitive.”Winning jockey Jackson Murphy believes Stockman’s Choice is a promising galloper.“He was really good today,” Murphy said.“He was a bit ‘antsy’ in the gates but jumped well and I was able to get a bit of cover.“I was a bit worried in the run as they had gone a bit steady because he is a horse that needs to find his gears and get rolling, but he wound up late and got over the top of them.“It wasn’t until the last 200 metres that I was confident he would get home.“I thought he was only just reaching his top at the end, and he has more to give.“He is going to get better and better with racing, and he is a really smart horse.”

Classy filly One More Song bounced back to the winner&rsquo;s list in the feature $107,250 Magain The Shillabeer (1400m) at Oakbank on Easter Saturday, April 4.
After having absolutely no luck when at Morphettville Parks on March 14, the three-year-old appreciated a better run to grab a photo finish win at the course of natural history.
Backed from $7 into $3.60 for trainers Aaron Bain &amp; Ned Taylor and ridden by Rochelle Milnes, One More Song won by a head from Boolcunda Dawn ($14) with Kalmana ($3 eq fav), a neck away third.
After beginning nicely, Milnes allowed the filly to balance up early and drift back to the tail of the seven-horse field.
With a good tempo early, One More Song was able to lengthen on straightening and sprinted well down the outside to grab a victory.
Trainer Aaron Bain said he was so pleased to have a good race win for Angaston Park proprietor Wayne Mitchell.
&ldquo;It was a nail-biter, and I wasn&rsquo;t sure we got there on the line,&rdquo; Bain said.
&ldquo;It was a big win, especially for Wayne (owner Wayne Mitchell). To get a nice horse for him, there is a lot of work at his Angaston Park property.
&ldquo;Ned (Taylor), Will (O&rsquo;Malley) Nathan (Higgins) and the team contribute and for what Wayne has put into the sport since 2010 when he started with Tony (McEvoy) at the farm to finally have a nice horse that can go and win races is really exciting.
&ldquo;She is a lovely filly, and you have to put a line through her last run &ndash; she was five wide around the Parks.
&ldquo;She has got the hunger &ndash; she loves to chase the line, she&rsquo;s got a great attitude and will to win.
&ldquo;One More Song had to make a long sustained run today. She got challenged late but dug deep.&rdquo;
Bain said the Listed $120,000 Sir John Morphett Adelaide Guineas (1600m) at Morphettville on Saturday, May 2 was a possible target going forward for One More Song.
Winning jockey Rochelle Milnes was pleased to ride another winner for Aaron Bain Racing.
&ldquo;I&rsquo;ve started to do a bit of work for Aaron (Bain) and Ned (Taylor) and was rewarded with a winner for them at Balaklava on Wednesday,&rdquo; Milnes said.
&ldquo;This filly dug really deep today.
&ldquo;She did herself good justice today.
&ldquo;The race worked out to be the grind I thought it would be.
&ldquo;It wasn&rsquo;t Plan A or B, I had to shuffle back through the plans and find a new one coming down the hill.
&ldquo;I would have liked to be a bit closer in the run, but it didn&rsquo;t pan out that way.
&ldquo;She was tough, got in front and to maintain that she has done an excellent job.
