Reserve Bank delivers in The Goodwood
Reserve Bank's affinity with Adelaide continued when defeating the older horses in the $1 million Group 1 The Goodwood (1200m) at Morphettville on Saturday.
Reserve Bank made it three consecutive South Australian wins when coming from back in the field, surging through the ruck in the straight to defeat local galloper Sir Sway and short favourite Giga Kick in third.

Reserve Bank's win was the first time this season a three-year-old colt claimed a Group 1 win in open age company.
A son of Capitalist, the win was Reserve Bank's fifth from 11 starts, taking his earnings to more than $980,000.
Reserve Bank gave his trainers Mick Price and Michael Kent (Jnr) their second Group 1 win of the South Australian autumn carnival. Jamie Melham was the winning rider.

Sprint sensation Gout Gout's ‘crazy, big-money' sacrifice to stay in Australia
Gout Gout has turned down massive sponsorship offers because they required him to move away from Australia. All of the biggest sporting companies around the globe have come calling for Australia's schoolboy sprint sensation, flashing big-money deals but with strings attached. These included moving overseas to high-end training facilities in places like Jamaica, the home of the world's fastest man Usain Bolt. But Gout's manager James Templeton has repeatedly knocked back the advances, preferring to leave the 17-year-old around his family and current support system with coach Di Sheppard in Ipswich. After breaking Peter Norman's 56-year-old national 200m record in December at the Australian All-Schools Championships, Gout signed one of the biggest deals in Australian athletics history with Adidas. 'JT (Templeton) told me how much they were willing to pay to get me on their side,' Gout told GQ. 'It was crazy. The number kept getting higher and I realised how much these companies think I'm worth. 'But that sponsorship really helps you get to the next level because obviously you need the money to travel and to train. Especially since I'm at school, so I don't need to go and find a job at Maccas or whatever to put fuel in my car. It definitely helps a lot.' Gout, who lives at home with his six brothers and sisters and parents who fled South Sudan 20 years ago, says he hasn't splashed out with any of his new-found riches yet. 'Long term, I'd like to set myself up and set my family up,' he says. 'I've saved a lot and I bought myself a new car when I got my Ps, so that's probably the biggest purchase I've made so far. I haven't gone crazy.' He describes the attention he's received since his breakthrough performances last year as 'crazy'. 'People asking me for photos and things of that nature, it's definitely surreal. It's crazy to think how far I've come. But it's given me perspective to see how far I can actually go, as well.' His next big race is in Europe during the July school holidays where he'll compete in the U/23 Diamond League event in Monaco before setting his sights on the world athletics championships in Tokyo in September.

Collette Dinnigan buys luxury Elizabeth Bay penthouse
Fashion designer and interior designer Collette Dinnigan has snapped up a luxury Elizabeth Bay penthouse after selling her Darling Point home for $20m. It's an interesting move for Dinnigan and husband Bradley Cocks, a hotelier and real estate agent, who previously owned a four-bedroom semi in Hamden Ave, Darling Point that they'd bought for $7m in 2017 and spent years renovating to capitalise on views Rushcutters and Elizabeth Bay. The couple's new home is a two-level three-bedroom residence atop the six-level Tradewinds building, bought for about $7.2m via BresicWhitney director Shannan Whitney and Romany Brooks last month, sources advise. MORE: $80m unit smashes all records The agents were contacted for comment this morning, but had no comment. Tradewinds is considered one of Elizabeth Bay's best positions, with the 250 sqm north-facing apartment coming with uninterrupted harbour views towards North Head. Expect Dinnigan to add her personal touches to the stylish new pad, which was last renovated a decade ago. It comes with three 'retro' styled bathrooms and kitchen and a wide balcony with large terrace on level one. MORE: Neighbours become $200m richer overnight There are two separate living zones on each level, with distinct detail and 1970s style custom joinery. Thanks to its northerly aspect, the residence is full of light and there's also airconditioning. It all comes with three-car garage parking. MORE: Wild reason Aussie has 300 homes The buyers of the couple's previous home in Darling Point were Julie Entwistle and her husband, Jason, the director of strategic development at wealth management platform Hub24. The Entwistle's former home, at 53 Regent St, Paddington, a magnificently renovated four-bedroom terrace with alfresco garden and parking, has been listed with Maclay Longhurst and Emily Davidson of Sotheby's. Neither wished to comment. On a 212 sqm block close to Centennial Park and with three bathrooms, there's a $5m guide for a June 28 auction. MORE: Kmart set to change everything in Temu war
