In-form Boom Time will be on the road to Sydney and the Gold Coast for feature summer races after making it back-to-back wins in Melbourne.A former Perth galloper, Boom Time backed up a fast-finishing win during the Melbourne Cup carnival at Flemington with a hard-fought victory stepping up in distance at Moonee Valley.Co-trainer Ben Hayes said the Group Three Summer Cup (2000m) at Randwick on December 26 was in the plans for the five-year-old entire en route to the lucrative Magic Millions Trophy (2200m) at the Gold Coast in January.After sprinting home strongly from back in the field with 54kg in a benchmark race at Flemington last start, Boom Time ended up sitting just off the leader Survived in Saturdays race and kept rallying in the straight under Craig Williams to hold his rivals at bay.Boom Time ($7.50), in his third start back from a year off the scene because of a tendon injury, got home by a long neck over Master Zephyr with the same margin to High Church third.Craig rode him a treat from the barrier, Hayes said.He ended up in a great spot and he got the result.Hayes said it was exciting to have Boom Time eligible to contest the Magic Millions Trophy, a sales-restricted race.Its not often you can run in a race like that for $1 million, Hayes said.Williams said Boom Time was able to show his versatility by sitting outside the lead and believes the Magic Millions race is an ideal target.He impressed me last time when he won and hes now had to take the next step, Williams said.I thought the other day he was well-suited by his run style and he had no weight, but today he went up in weight and had to do it tough. And he did it. So hes a solid horse.Boom Time brought up a race-to-race double for Lindsay Park after Hell Or Highwater crossed to the lead and was never headed in the Ranvet Handicap (1600m), her third win from her past four starts.Earlier, the Mick Price-trained colt Cao Cao put his credentials on show for the Magic Millions 2YO Classic with a dominant win in a 1000m race for juveniles. Antonee Robinson USA Jersey .ca. Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count? All of the video replays we were shown on TV were inconclusive about whether the puck had entirely crossed the line or not. Matt Besler USA Jersey .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable. http://www.soccerusateamonline.com/Chris-Wondolowski-Copa-America-Jersey/ . -- Playing time has been limited for Maxim Tissot this season, so the Montreal Impact defender made the most of his first scoring opportunity on Saturday. Gyasi Zardes USA Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla. Aaron Long USA Jersey .com) - Following a late-game loss to the reigning NBA champs, the Toronto Raptors will look to sustain their recent high-level play as they travel to Indiana to take on the Pacers. HONOLULU -- Kansas must venture to Hawaii for its season opener, but anticipation over the debut of Josh Jackson will not let attention wander.Rated as the No. 1 recruit as part of an incoming national class loaded with talent, Jackson is an addition the Jayhawks hope will enable them to reach the Final Four for the first time since 2012.That is the biggest goal entering a season in which Kansas is expected to rule the Big 12 again and tie the all-time Division I record of 13 consecutive conference championships set by UCLA from 1967-79.But first things first as the season begins Friday in the Armed Forces Classic against reigning Big Ten champion Indiana.The opener will be followed by a game Tuesday against top-rated Duke at the Champions Classic in New York.Hardly an easy start for any freshman, including Jackson, whose position is hard to define.Im just easing my way in, just trying not to think about making too many mistakes, Jackson said after playing four different positions in the second of two exhibition games the Jayhawks played.Just going out and trying to play basketball. Its just a game. I really enjoy playing each and every position. So, coming up this year, I think you guys will see me in a bunch of different positions.If he provides the expected impact, the No. 3 Jayhawks should be quite formidable. They return one of the most experienced set of small guards in America.Bullish senior Frank Mason never shies away from contact underneath and came within one assist of a triple-double in the Jayhawks first exhibition. Junior Devonte Graham was the most outstanding player in last years Big 12 Tournament when he was regarded as the most improved player on a 33-5 squad that bowed out in the Elite Eight against eventual NCAA champion Villanova.Each dealt with minor ailmeents in exhibition games -- Mason, a jammed thumb and sore shin; Graham, with cramping.dddddddddddd.We have to get (Graham) to where he can play 30-plus (minutes) along with Frank. Thats key for us, said Bill Self, who enters his 14th season as Kansas coach.Indiana was a blueblood that started poorly last season. A difficult opening stretch included a 1-2 mark at the Maui Invitational and a 20-point loss to Duke in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge. Yet the Hoosiers went 15-3 in the Big Ten and finished 27-8 with a loss to eventual NCAA runner-up North Carolina in the Sweet 16.Sophomore forward OG Anunoby came on late for the Hoosiers and should easily surpass the 13.7 minutes he averaged, while contributing in all areas.Hes a great example, said Indiana coach Tom Crean, of somebody thats getting better constantly, understands that it all starts with what you do with your defensive mindset and how important it is to make the game easier for everybody else.Others must seamlessly fit into the Hoosiers rhythmic ball movement, particularly after losing All-Big Ten point guard Yogi Ferrell.Pittsburgh transfer Josh Newkirk will step into that spot after recovering from microfracture surgery on his knee. Crean estimates Newkirks vertical jump has improved seven to eight inches since arriving at Indiana, then healing.Another guard, junior James Blackmon, recovered from an injured knee that limited him to 13 games last year. He offers scoring pop. Underneath, and high expectations exist for 6-10 sophomore center Thomas Bryant, who was a 68.3 percent shooter last season.We dont just want to be a good offensive team, cautioned Bryant. We want to be defensive, as well. ' ' '
