A HUGE crowd was on hand to witness Richard Hankin claim victory in Saturday’s Keilor Gift. Starting off a handicap of six metres, Hankin stormed home to secure his first ever Gift win in a time of 12.67 seconds. After flying down from Sydney to compete, an elated Hankin was on the phone to his coach, Brian Wright, within minutes of his victory before kicking off a night of celebrations.
