Held over the four major days of Wagga’s autumn carnival, the bonus provided Heywood with a $2500 collect.
Heywood accumulated 61 points at the Cup Prelude, Country Cup, Town Plate and Gold Cup meetings in the past three weeks.
He staved off fellow Wagga-based trainer Trevor Sutherland by six points.
High Opinion’s win in the MTC Country Cup gave Heywood an edge in the bonus, which was supported by Arlington Park Racing.
The top five point-scorers were Chris Heywood 61, Trevor Sutherland 55, Gary Colvin 46, Geoff Duryea 45 and Tim Donnelly 26.
