Douglas posted his second win of the month and fifth for the season with a victory to Van Niekerk in the opening race.
The four-year-old pacer has only recently returned to racing after a four and a half month break and showed great improvement on his first-up 11th behind You Ninety Two at Lord's Raceway last week.
Van Niekerk, by the US site Net Ten Eom out of Rise Lindenny, notched up his third win from 28 career starts.
Douglas claimed the winning drive.
Following a string of placings with his classy trotter Sundons Courage - many of them at Group level - Angove broke through for his first win of 2020 with Piesridingshotgun.
Back with Angove after a stint in South Australia last year, the four-year-old gelding won for the second time in 23 starts.
The son of Danny Bouchea only recently returned to racing after an eight-month break, putting the writing on the wall with a second at Melton on February 11.
