Divine Mercy powers home late to win Kimberley Cup
Punters gathered at the Broome Turf Club donning their best frocks and shirts for one for the biggest days of the Broome racing season at the weekend — the Kimberley Cup. But before the feature race, Tegan Gasior won Fashions on the Field with her beautiful violet dress and matching fascinator. The Kimberley Cup, run over 2070 metres, was won by Divine Mercy, trained by Darryn Pateman and ridden by Natika Riordan, in a time of 2.09.71. The seven-year-old gelding powered home late to claim the $35,000 feature at Broome. Striking Fella, trained by Peter Bamford and ridden by Kristy Bennett, finished second just 0.26 lengths behind, while third place went to Gambler's Gold, ridden by Kyra Yuill and also trained by Pateman. The Broome racing season continues with two meetings remaining, culminating in the Broome Cup on August 16.
