Australiaâs greatest racing dynasty has added another chapter after Edward Cummings landed his first Group 1 with Duais in the Queensland Oaks at Eagle Farm on Saturday.
While the young trainer carries a famous surname, he has always done it his way and Cummings made it clear Duais’ victory was a result of blood, sweat and tears rather than riding on the coat-tails of his family before him.
After delivering a perfect ride from a wide barrier, jockey Hugh Bowman will also get the chance to bring up his 100th Group 1 win in next Saturday’s JJ Atkins aboard Port Louis after winning the Oaks for the first time since Winx in 2015.
