Down by three points behind the frontrunning Aguilar, 22-25, after the opening heat, the 29-year-old California native roared back to clinch the second and final heat to top the event and relegate the Filipino ace to runner-up honors, although both finished with similar 47 points.
Bornok Mangosong took third place with 38 points in the event sponsored by Enersel-Forte vitamin syrup, Therasil lozenges, Bridgestone tires and Team Pacquiao.
Jose Acaban III topped the Novice Local Enduro division with 45 points, edging second placer Edgar Dajay (43) while DJ Barretto finished third (38) at the winding and rolling Sta. Barbara circuit located a few kilometers away from the new Iloilo airport.
It also close in the Executive class where Cher Acosa won his duel with Manny Pacquiao trainer-confidant Buboy Fernandez, who tried to make lost ground by clinching the second heat but fell short by five points behind the champion, 39-44.
