Led by champion hoop Damien Oliver, the Jockeys ran out 48 run winners after reaching 5-177 from their 20 overs.

In response, the Racing All Stars were bowled out for 129

Shaun Cooper (22  retired) and Oliver 20 (retired)  batted as well as they ride, leading the run scoring for the Jockeys. 

Racing.com's Ben Asgari took 1/13 off two overs with the ball for the Racing All Stars.

Ben Thompson (21) and Melbourne Cup winning trainer Danny O'Brien (20) scored the runs for the All Stars, while Craig Newitt (2/8) led the way with the ball for the Jockeys.

The Jockeys have now won four of the seven charity games, while there has also been two ties.

Money raised from this year's game at Williamstown Oval will be donated to helping wildlife injured in the devastating bushfires which have burnt around the state.
