Chris Munce has a double-barrelled chance to take the next step in his training career and win his first stakes race.He will saddle up Nicconi Leggera and Snow Fields in the Listed Mode Plate (1200m) at Eagle Farm on Saturday.The former champion jockey retired to take up training in Brisbane in January 2015 and has since trained nearly 80 winners.He has started the 2016-17 season well with 19 winners and is in the top 10 city trainers.Munce is satisfied with his efforts but believes it is time to take the next step.I havent had many stakes runners but winning black-type races is obviously important to all trainers, Munce said.I have gradually been able to build up the strength of my younger horses. I have several ready for the Magic Millions Two-Year-Old Classic but it would be great to break my stakes winning duck at Eagle Farm.Munce said Nicconi Leggera was an honest horse who should have won her previous start.She had a bad barrier but she is drawn in barrier one on Saturday. I have got Larry Cassidy to ride her and he is back in his best form, Munce said.I have always had an opinion of Snow Fields and I scratched her from the Sunshine Coast on Wednesday for this.In the long term I am hoping Snow Fields might be an Oaks filly and she will have to show something on Saturday to back up my opinion.

Mike Edwards Womens Jersey .J. -- Pitcher Carl Pavano is retiring after 14 major league seasons. EAST LANSING, Mich. -- Michigan State is re-evaluating its quarterback position this week after struggling on offense in three consecutive losses.Head coach Mark Dantonio said Tyler OConnor, Damion Terry and Brian Lewerke will each get a chance to earn playing time in Saturdays homecoming game against Northwestern. Dantonio said he doesnt plan on deciding who or how many will play until the end of the week of practice.Pure and simple, they have to demonstrate in practice exactly what theyre going to do [in a game], he said. As difficult as that is to say, thats where were at because I think a case can be made for all three of those guys.OConnor, a fifth-year senior, started the first five games of the season after earning the job early in Michigan States training camp. He has completed 60.9 percent of his passes and thrown eight touchdown passes.Dantonio said OConnor and the offense in general have not been as productive as they need tto be.dddddddddddd The Spartans are averaging 21 points per game this season, which ranks third-to-last in the Big Ten and 112th among all FBS teams.Terry replaced OConnor during the fourth quarter of this past Saturdays loss to BYU. He completed six of 10 passes with one interception and no touchdowns. Lewerke, a redshirt freshman, did not play last week. He has attempted four passes this season and completed two of them.Lewerke is a young guy with a lot of talent, but he may not quite have the experience that the other guys do, Dantonio said. I think to exclude him right now from this would be wrong.The coach said he wants to be decisive this week in order to avoid a quarterback controversy, but he needed to reopen the competition for the job because Michigan State needs more production from the position.
