Three-year-old colt Saveadateforme continued his winning ways at Goulburn on Sunday taking out a Class 2 mile with ease for trainer John O’Shea. Sporting the silks of Go Racing, Saveadateforme placed fourth on debut at the beginning of October before coming from last to score at Kembla Grange. The colt backed up that performance with a four-length romp at Goulburn under Chad Schofield.
