NO. 81 FOR 81YO BART

The win of Faint Perfume in today’s Crown Oaks was Bart Cummings’ 81st Group One winner at Flemington.
Bart Cummings, who is 82 next week, quipped after the Oaks that he and Flemington have run a dead heat!
As Tara Madgwick points out in her excellent A to Z of the Melbourne Cup, Bart Cummings is the Yardstick … here, here.
And if you haven’t signed up for Breednet at this stage, I suggest you give it a try: Tara is one of the industry’s most informed writers and co-hosts the Thoroughbreds show on TVN.
