His astonishing tally of twelve Melbourne Cup wins arguably makes him the greatest trainer in Australia's history and, by statistical measures, as freakish as Bradman. His laconic wit and indifference to the trappings of wealth and fame have seen him recognised as a national treasure in his own lifetime. He is one of Australia's great character. As Les Carylon writes, he simply isn't like anyone else. Cummings doesn't come into it: to everyone he's just Bart. *** Quantity Available: 3.
