CHARCOAL Jack won the 2010 Caltex King Coal Cup in Collie on Sunday.

Byford trainer reinsman Shannon Suvaljko took the honours at the meeting.

Shannon has an impressive record at the track, driving a treble with the Ray Jones trained Valhalla Will in the first event, his own nomination, Robbery in the second and the winner of the main event with Charcoal Jack for trainer Bernard James.

An excellent crowd witnessed competitive racing while good trading was experienced in the bar and tote.

Driver of the runner-up, Stephen Reed, earlier won with Raegin Gloves for Harvey trainer Kevin Egerton-Green and another of his drives, Rich Life, ran second.

Other winners included the Darren Schofield trained and driven Illuminator, Dealt Ace of Hearts for Matthew White and Robert McLoughlan and Obi Wan driven by Chris Playle for Deidre Whitfield.

Give Me Bundy, trained by Debra Ashcroft and driven by husband Errol, made a good race debut for second with Average Joe running fourth for them in the main event.

Trent Wheeler drove The Early Crow into second place from a 30-metre handicap in the opening event for Busselton trainer Darryl Stead to continue his good form. In the last week, Trent drove his father’s, club president Brian Wheeler, horse Licorice Twist to a good fourth in Albany on Friday as well as a second with Pandemic in the main event.

He steered the consistent Disco Belle to an unlucky third the previous Tuesday after suffering severe interference in Harvey.

Five draws were made from the Chocolate Wheel.

Winners were Gail Rowland who won a massage from Karen McGuckin, Geoff Foster won a cordless kettle, Laurel Dhu won a sandwich maker, Shaylee Earl won an umbrella and Bill Whelan won the big prize, the Kalbarri holiday.

Plenty of other prizes are available for the remaining three meetings.

Local trainers have Albany (Friday), Bunbury (Saturday) and Narrogin (Tuesday) meetings to consider with the highlight the 2010 Hankook Tyres Great Southern Council Derby in Narrogin.
