Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 13 Journalists Share Posted September 13 Run To The Rose contender, Traffic Warden. (Photo by Pat Scala/Racing Photos) James Cummings is looking to secure his sixth Run To The Rose (1200m) title this weekend as Traffic Warden, trained under his guidance, gears up for the Group 2 sprint. Cummings, who initially claimed victory with Hallowed Crown back in 2014 under his grandfather Bart’s training, has since seen success with Bivouac in 2019, followed by wins with Anamoe, In Secret, and Cylinder in recent years. Traffic Warden, winner of Flemington’s Sires’ Produce Stakes and a strong contender in the Group 1 Golden Slipper (1200m) and Group 1 ATC Sires’ Produce (1400m), has impressed Cummings with his comeback form. “We are delighted with the way he’s come back,” Cummings remarked. “We’ve given him a suitably long and slow build-up to be ready for an important race. A lot of these horses are on trial for the Golden Rose in two weeks. “He’s brilliant enough and he’s developed so much between his two and three-year-old years. “I feel like we’ve got some versatility with that horse (and) if we want to drop him back in distance, he could very well be our Coolmore horse.” Horse racing news View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
