An impressive first-up win to Divine Mr Artie has provided a tonic for trainer Brendan McCarthy who broke his arm when kicked by a horse.Jockey Craig Williams was impressed by the way the four-year-old gelding returned to racing in Saturdays Plenary Group Handicap (1200m) and is convinced the Group Three Standish Handicap on New Years Day over the same course would be ideal for Divine Mr Artie.McCarthy was not on track to see Divine Mr Artie sprint to a three-length win in his first start this season, with a stable representative explaining the trainer had undergone surgery on a broken arm sustained while loading a horse onto a float at his property on Friday.Its a good tonic for him getting the win today, getting hurt last night, stable representative Crystal Lethart said.Divine Mr Artie was resuming for his first start since winning at Caulfield on the final weekend of last season as a three-year-old in July, and Williams maintained a perfect record on the four-year-old gelding from his two rides on the sprinter.Well supported late from $5 to $4, Divine Mr Artie got cover back in the field in the straight track sprint before he chimed in on the outside and then surged clear in the final 200m to defeat Armada ($10), with another three-quarters of a length to Chiavari ($7) third.He ticked a lot of boxes coming into todays race and it looks like a race like the Standish, now that hes hopefully got his rating up enough to get him into the race, should be right up his alley the way hes come back, Williams said.Williams begins a stint in Hong Kong on Sunday but is back in Melbourne for racing on December 31 at Moonee Valley and the Standish Handicap the next day.

However, he did make them miss him a little less. Cundiff, who had the unenviable job of replacing Dawson last season, agreed Thursday to a one-year, $1. STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- The ascent of a few offensive linemen is coming at a good time for Penn State.The No. 12 Nittany Lions (7-2, 5-1 Big Ten, CFP), who lost right tackle Andrew Nelson to a season-ending knee injury four weeks ago, will likely be without fellow starter Brendan Mahon when they play Indiana on Saturday. Penn State coach James Franklin did not rule out a return later this season for Mahon who appeared to injure a foot on the first play against Iowa. He was carted from the sideline to the locker room and replaced by Chasz Wright whos expected to make his first start.Well see how the week plays out. And then were also working on some other variables, Franklin said. We kind of have a bunch of different plans but right now obviously we have the situation with how the game ended.That included inserting the flexible Wright alongside a much-improved unit consisting of veteran center Brian Gaia, two freshmen and a reclamation project tabbed to play the groups most critical spot.Former junior college transfer Paris Palmer will make his fourth-straight start protecting quarterback Trace McSorleys blindside and is suddenly the teams most experienced tackle available. Unlike guards Ryan Bates and Connor McGovern, who earned starting jobs quickly and have held on to them, Palmer had to come off the bench this year after his debut season full of struggles.Having injured his knee his senior year of high school, Palmer spent what wouldve been his freshman year in college working in a factory dropping cashews, peanuts and dates into tubes to make trail mix. He then enrolled at Lackawanna College to play a season before arriving at Penn State with junior eligibility.He came with little experience as a pass blocker having played in a Wing T offense in high school and no real strength training background. Due to his lack of FBS experience, opposing pressures were usually aimed at Palmer and Penn States ramshackle offensive line allowed 39 sacks a year after it gave up 44.dddddddddddd couldnt get down about it, Palmer said of losing his starting spot in the offseason. I couldnt lose confidence because at any moment in the game of football you can be brought into the game at any time.Now, those sack numbers are down, rushing totals are up and Penn States offense is among the most explosive in the country thanks to consistency up front.Palmers turnaround has helped and so has the steadying influence of team captain Gaia. Bates has settled in nicely as a starter in his second year and McGovern was recently named the Big Ten Freshman of the Week for a dominating effort against Iowa that saw Penn State rush for 359 yards. Wright, while hell make his first start, has also helped out at guard this season.Quarterback Trace McSorley even attributes the teams impressive plus-6 turnover margin to his front five. Hes getting hit less -- he was getting drilled and fumbling in the first few weeks -- and has plenty of time to find receivers down the field. Like the 6-foot-7, 300-pound Palmer, Wright is among the teams most physically imposing players at 6-foot-7, 343 pounds.Theyre playing like it, too.Theyre playing really physical football up front, tight end Mike Gesicki said.Meanwhile, star running back Saquon Barkley leads the Big Ten with 1,055 rushing yards and has found success running right and left.You see them working together on the sideline, talking through things that theyre seeing, different kinds of twists and stunts and alignments that theyre seeing on defense, McSorley said. (Its good) to know that we have guys in our depth that can come in and not miss a beat with what weve got going on. ' ' '
