Anthony Darmanin heads to Sandown hoping to build on his near-perfect record aboard the Peter Gelagotis-trained Illustrious Lad who has already given the jockey the biggest win of his career.Ive ridden him five times for four wins and a second. And the second should have been a win as well, Darmanin said.His only defeat on the sprinter who runs in Saturdays Kevin Heffernan Stakes, was two starts ago at Caulfield when he finished two lengths from Keen Array when hampered by a riderless horse.Illustrious Lad won a Group Two sprint at Flemington last start and heads to Saturdays weight-for-age race over 1300m as one of the leading chances.Darmanin said Gelagotis had long been a supporter of his and he first got the chance to ride Illustrious Lad in Adelaide in April.He won really well that day and they took him to Adelaide another two times and I won on him there as well, he said.Then hes been to Caulfield and Flemington and hes done really well.Darmanin has been a trackwork rider for Melbourne Cup winning-owner Lloyd Williams for six years, while he does the bulk of his race riding in Tasmania.His win on Illustrious Lad last Saturday week was his first at Group Two level.I thought the horse would go really well but I was just happy that he won for all the connections and Peter for giving me the opportunity again to ride him on a big day like Derby Day, he said.Saturdays field includes Group One winners Under The Louvre, Lucky Hussler and Famous Seamus but Darmanin is hopeful in-form Illustrious Lad can take the step to weight-for-age.From a wide gate Im not sure what Pete wants to do yet but hopefully we can get a nice run just in behind them and I dont think the 1300 metres is an issue, he said.I think hell love Sandown and hopefully I can just wait for the last crack at them and go past them at the right time.

PYONGYANG, North Korea -- It has been five decades since Pak Du Ik scored the winning goal in North Koreas shocking upset of Italy to reach the quarterfinals at the 1966 World Cup, a match that remains the countrys most memorable in football folklore.Now, 50 years later, if I think of that time, I was really young ... and although Italy was a very strong team, we beat them, the strong team, Pak said in a recent interview with Associated Press Television News to commemorate the anniversary.I still havent lost the feeling of happiness from that. Also, I can still remember really clearly the way the British crowds supported our team.North Korea ended Italys run at the tournament with the 1-0 win at Middlesbrough, England, on July 19, 1966, then lost to Portugal in the quarterfinals.A group of players returned to the stadium in Middlesbrough in 2002 to celebrate again the wiin over Italy, wearing red jerseys and scarves and receiving rapturous cheers from the crowd.ddddddddddddPak attended that ceremony, but had a quieter reflection closer to home for the golden jubilee.North Korea has reached the mens World Cup finals only once since then -- losing all three group games in 2010. The 66 performance remained the best run by an Asian team at the marquee tournament until South Koreas surge to the semifinals in 2002.While teenage players recall that North Korea beat Italy in 66, some are vague on the details.
