Local star Clare Lindop and Melbourne's Ben Melham were the big winners at Adelaide's feature meeting taking out the Group One Goodwood and SA Derby respectively.

The win aboard Melbourne filly Lone Rock in 1200m sprint was sweet for Lindop who took her Group One tally to four with the win for trainer Robert Smerdon and owner John Bongiorno.

"1200 metres at Morphettville, it's my favourite course and distance and it's a big thrill to win a Group One here," Lindop said.

"She really unleashed, and full credit to her."

Although originally from Victoria, Lindop has made Adelaide her home where she is the stable rider for Leon Macdonald.

Smerdon said he bowed to the owners' wishes to run Lone Rock in the Goodwood in preference to the Listed Proud Miss Stakes on the program.

"The filly was flying but it was a strong field and I was tempted to go to the other race," he said.

"But the owner was committed to the Goodwood and I'm rapt."

Punters thought the task beyond Lone Rock and sent her out at $31 with Crystal Lily the $4.20 favourite.

Crystal Lily was in a forward position but couldn't match the finishing sprint of Lone Rock and finished 1-3/4 lengths behind to record her third Group One second this autumn.

Anthony Cummings' decision to send Shadows In The Sun from Sydney paid handsomely when the three-year-old led all the way to take out the South Australian Derby.

Cummings was searching for a good track for the gelding after being frustrated by Sydney's wet tracks over the carnival.

He engaged Ben Melham for the ride and the young jockey went into the Derby having already ridden a stakes double on the eight-race program.

Shadows In The Sun ($21) beat Echoes Of Heaven ($6.50) by three-quarters of a length with the same margin to Lindop's mount Lalla Rookh ($31).

Melham gained national prominence last spring when he filled in for a suspended Luke Nolen aboard champion mare Black Caviar to win the Group One Patinack Farm Stakes.

On a day dominated by interstate raiders, Mark Kavanagh, who operates stables at Flemington and Morphettville won the Provincial Super Series Final with Bagman while trainer David Jolly took out the Group Three R A Lee Stakes with Budriguez to ensure two local victories.

Caulfield trainer Mick Price and Craig Newitt combined for a double with Vivid Vixen in the Listed ACG Security Stakes and Dubleanny in the Proud Miss Stakes.
