Veteran Sydney s[printer Dances on Stars is expected to respond to a new training regime when he begins his seventh Queensland campaign at Eagle Farm.Seven-year-old Dances on Stars, a regular visitor in the summer and winter, will be having his 17th start in Queensland in Saturdays Open Quality (1500m).His best win in Queensland was the 2014 Gold Coast Prime Ministers Cup but he has run minor placings in races such as the BRC Sires, Queensland Guineas, Ken Russell Memorial, Champagne Classic and Gold Coast Guineas.Dances on Stars has been well beaten at his two starts this campaign in Sydney but trainer Gerald Ryan is expecting an improvement on Saturday.It is probably the easiest race he has been in for some time. Also I have changed his training about and I am looking at running him in longer races such as Saturdays this time, Ryan said.He is yet to win past 1350 metres but I think he can get further with the change in the way we have been getting him ready.One thing he always seems to race well in Queensland.Ryan was able to get Kerrin McEvoy, who is in Brisbane for the State of Origin jockeys series, for Dances on Stars.Meanwhile Ryan said he did not want a really wet track for his filly Suspenders in the Listed Mode Plate (1200m).I know she has won two from two on soft going but I dont know if she will get through the really heavy, Ryan said.She has had a trial when placed behind Winning Rupert since her last run in October. She has been in Queensland for a while and I just hope we get the right conditions, Ryan said.South East Queensland has been hit by storms this week but the weather is expected to be clear on Saturday.Dell Curry Hornets Jersey .Y. -- Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone has drawn on his Syracuse connections once again by hiring Rob Moore to take over as receivers coach.

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Jersey .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable.ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Assistant coach Eric Studesville walked into the running backs room at the Denver Broncos headquarters when the Super Bowl champs reported for their offseason program, scribbled the number 18 on the grease board and circled it.Were going to go at that pace. And were going to pay attention to detail like that, running back C.J. Anderson recalled his position coach declaring on that day back in April.Anderson smiled.If we do it like 18, he said, were doing it the right way.Even with Peyton Manning retired, the Broncos insist his legacy lives on at 13655 Broncos Parkway.I wouldnt be surprised if Baltimore is not trying to do things like Ray Lewis up there, and when Tom Brady decides to leave New England people wont try to do it like that, Anderson said. When you find someone whos been doing it at a high level for that long, its hard to say: `OK, Peytons not here. Now we can relax. Its already been engrained and embedded in us. Were wired to strive to be perfect. And if were not perfect, we have to do it again until we get it right.Manning was Denvers de facto drill sergeant over the last four seasons, and as they begin the post-Peyton era, the Broncos say theyre just as fastidious in his wake as they were in his presence.I dont think therell be any fall-off because we are progeny of Peyton, suggested tight end Virgil Green. We have guys who worked with Peyton and thats the only way we know how to work, thats the only way we know how to do things. Being around Peyton, just being accountable, he taught me a lot about what it means to be a true professional. And a lot of guys here have that same mindset. We learned from the best guy to ever do it.Like fellow sports icons Michael Jordan and Nolan Ryan, Manning, who retired a month after Denvers 24-10 Super Bowl win over Carolina, demanded excellence and unparalleled preparation not only of himself but also from his teammates and coaches.Loathe to cross him, colleagues and coaches devoured the playbook like college kids pulling all-nighters before finals, certain that Manning would quiz them about this nuance or that, or demand to know the reasoning behind calls and formations.They had to be on time, on point and on top of their game lest they fall from his favor.With Manning hitting the links now instead of eluding linebackers, cornerback Bradley Roby said the Broncos have to guard against collectively exhaling and losing a little bit of that razor-sharp edge that helped them reach the Super Bowl two of the last three seasons.ddddddddddddDefinitely, because I think Peyton demanded that, just being around him and his perfection and his aura. Hes a legend, one of the greatest ever. So, when everyone in the room realizes one of the greatest ever is in here right now, everyone acts different. Its just an irreplaceable presence thats hard to replicate, Roby said.That said, Roby pointed to the seven games Manning missed last season when then-backup Brock Osweiler was the starter, and attention to detail never slipped.There is a danger, but I think coach Gary Kubiak, he demands perfection and excellence himself, Roby said. Because even when Peyton wasnt around, we were still on the same level, so I dont think itll be a problem.Several veterans suggested the Manning Effect is as strong today as it was when Manning was hollering all those Omahas from the line of scrimmage.Peyton was always a big part of this, GM John Elway declared after Mannings retirement.It definitely helped me out going against him every day, knowing you cant have an off day. But I still cant have those off days, cornerback Chris Harris Jr. said. Im still going against Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders every day. So, Ive still got to bring my A game.Sanders said the same goes for the offense.I think Peyton showed us the blueprint, Sanders said. I think once someone shows you the blueprint, then its instilled in you.Kubiak said hes seen no signs of his team letting up with Manning gone but not forgotten.If anything, I think Ive seen it carry over, Kubiak said. Im watching guys that are more vocal because hes not here. I think those guys had the privilege of being around the best for so long from that standpoint, and I think you can see it.Well, there is one thing that Manning took with him into retirement, Anderson said.His famous fuse.The only thing were not doing is yelling at people like he used to, Anderson said with a hearty laugh. We dont want to get on to people like he used to. But were just easing guys into it and letting them know: `Hey, this is how we do things and youre going to jump aboard right now because were not waiting for you.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton ' ' '
