Another Lloyd Williams cast-off became another trainer's "superstar" with the win of Module in the Listed Bagot Handicap at Flemington.

Module raced eight times in the Williams colours, winning three races for the prolific owner, before going through the sale ring in 2010 in one of in his regular dispersals.

Picked up by trainer Peter Gelagotis and his brother Manny for $70,000, Module has now won another five times, his victory in Tuesday's $150,000 race capping a resurrected career.

"He's not the classiest horse going around, but he's a superstar," Peter Gelagotis said.

"We have to manage him, he's got some problems with his joints, but he tries every time. That's what makes him a better horse than he probably is."

Module, a sparingly raced seven-year-old, hadn't won since taking out the Wangaratta Cup last March.

But Gelagotis said he had never given up on the horse.

"He's had issues, you just have to work with him," Gelagotis said.

"His last few runs have been good, workmanlike. I really thought he had his chance today."

Jockey Craig Newitt gave Module ($15) a comfortable ride in midfield but looked like he would have a problem getting clear at the 300m.

But a neat manoeuvre 200m out gave the horse clear running and he overpowered Crafty Cruiser ($8.50) to score by a length.

King Diamond ($7.50) finished another length away in third place.

For his former owner the success was also welcomed, the stable tweeting after the race: "We sell winners."

Williams maintains he is happy to sell sound horses still capable of winning merely because they don't fit his Melbourne Cup-winner's profile.

The most notable of his discards is Vengeance Of Rain, the winner of a Listed race at Caulfield, before being sold after only three starts.

He went on to become an international star winning Group One races in Hong Kong and Dubai.
