Shane Baertschiger headed into Sunday’s race meeting not worrying too much about the 500-win milestone. For a start, the Australian trainer does not really keep tabs on his own tally, except maybe his four Group 1 wins. He only found out he was two wins shy of...

Baertschiger, whose first Kranji winner was Reddy To Rock on March 2, 2012, and ridden by his late apprentice jockey Jacky Low, might not have made a song and dance about the feat.“If there was no Covid-19, we would have hit 500 long time ago,” he said.

“I thought Shanghai Star was my best chance, and at best, I might get to 499 winners today. The milestone would then have to wait for another day.Baertschiger said that the 12-year-old, who used to race for Australian owner Geoff Grimish in his distinctive black and grey diagonals, would have been a more apt milestone provider.

“He ran in three Class 4 races before and each time, he ran only around three lengths off, and twice, around two lengths off the winner,” said Baertschiger. “I have no complaints. We’ve done very well with four Group 1 wins and several Group 2’s and Group 3’s ,” he said.“And a big thank you to my dad who taught me everything. He’s happily retired now, and turns 73 in June.
