Royal Gamble, for Morisset combination Mark and Jack Callaghan, gained gate 11 - three on the second line - in heat six, which will be the third and final pacing qualifier on Wednesday's Bathurst program.

Bright Energy, for Louth Park's Darren and Brad Elder, has gate nine - one on the back row - in heat five. The third round of qualifiers are at Newcastle next Sunday night.

Brad Elder had Bright Energy four back in the running line from a back-row start for most of heat three. He finished 14.8 behind winner Malcolms Rhythm.

Callaghan was second driving Alta Orlando in heat two, which was dominated by Belinda McCarthy-trained stablemate Expensive Ego.

On Friday night at Newcastle, Darren Elder and the Callaghans were among the winners.
