Mr Sommerville is sitting third in the $10,000 Wagga Stayers Series and looks the only danger to runaway leader Ashtomina.
It was a year ago when Mr Sommerville claimed the inaugural series conducted by the Murrumbidgee Turf Club.
The Trevor Sutherland-trained gelding has amassed 42 points to trail Ashtomina (69 points) and his stablemate Surzeal (42 points).
There are two races left in the series – the Riverina Cup Prelude (2500m) on July 11 and the Riverina Cup (3800m) on July 22.
The Riverina Cup is NSW’s longest race and carries triple points, giving the winner a 30-point haul in the series, which sees $5000 to both the winning trainer and owners.
