Bypassing a race in Sydney has paid off for the connections of Snoopy with a hard-fought win at Flemington.The Hawkes Racing-trained galloper was heavily supported to take out the Western Health Pharmacy Cup on Saturday and didnt let his supporters down.Snoopy was an entrant for the TAB Handicap at Rosehill but the stable selected the race in Melbourne where the gelding was handicapped on the minimum of 54kg.Providing Dwayne Dunn the second leg of a double, Snoopy was sent out the $2.35 favourite before scoring a half-length victory over Rough Justice ($8) with Tashbeeh ($6) a length away third.Co-trainer Wayne Hawkes said the addition of blinkers to Snoopys gear had contributed to the gelding finding form.Snoopy first sported the headwear when successful at Rosehill on November 26.His run two starts ago was good but the blinkers have certainly made the difference, Hawkes said.No special plans are in place for Snoopy who recorded his sixth win from 16 starts and Hawkes is hoping the four-year-old can continue his recent run of winning form.Hes one the favourites in the stable and has a great nature and a great attitude, Hawkes said.Dunn, who scored earlier aboard Electric Tribute, said the fast-run race suited Snoopy.We were hiking along, Dunn said.I think he needs it where its not a sprint home as the better class of horses can outsprint him.The double for Dunn kept him one win clear of rival Craig Williams in the Melbourne jockeys premiership.Williams, who leaves on Sunday for a stint in Hong Kong, rode a double courtesy of Divine Mr Artie and Khaki and has ridden 10 metropolitan winners from the last four meetings.Also enjoying good fortune is the Lindsay Park stable of David and Ben Hayes and Tom Dabernig who scored with Hell Or Highwater in the Hollywood Nails Handicap.Her win was the stables 13th from the past four metropolitan meetings which included a quartet at Pakenham last Saturday.The combination of Darren Weir and apprentice Ben Allen bookended the Flemington meeting, scoring with Lyuba in the opening race and then Ozi Choice in the Western Health Foundation Handicap.

Jay Feely kicked a 41-yard field goal in overtime, and the Cardinals edged the Tennessee Titans 37-34 in overtime after blowing a 17-point lead late in the fourth quarter. Wide receivers have rarely won the Heisman Trophy.Desmond Howard of Michigan was the last in 1991. Tim Brown of Notre Dame did it in 1987. And that is the complete list.A receiver will not be winning the Heisman Trophy this season either. Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson has all but wrapped up the award, but Oklahomas Dede Westbrook is starting to get some attention.Westbrook began the season slowly, with 17 catches for 154 yards in the first three games. Since then he has been all but unstoppable. He had six straight 100-yard games before last week against Baylor when he had four catches for 88 yards and two touchdowns in a rout of the Bears.Alabamas Amari Cooper was the last receiver to be a Heisman finalist back in 2014. He finished third in the voting. The last receiver to do better than that was Pitts Larry Fitzgerald, who finished second to Oklahomas Jason White in 2003.The APs Heisman panel is still locked in on Lamar Jackson at the top of the charts, but more players are getting attention down-ballot:Lamar Jackson, QB, Louisville (21 points)Numbers to know: Jackson is sixth in the nation in rushing (133.4 yards per game), leads in touchdowns with 19 and is averaging 7.25 yards per carry.

The Cowboys are sixth in the Mountain West in run defense at 4.dddddddddddd43 yards per carry allowed.Jonathan Allen, DL, Alabama (2 points)Numbers to know: Allen is second on the team with 7.5 sacks and leads with 13 quarterback hurries.Next: Chattanooga.
