Darren Weir has fallen agonisingly short of 300 winners for season 2014-15.
Australia’s leading trainer for the season, Weir has finished on 298 after a winless final meeting of the season at Pakenham.
Weir saddled seven runners at the meeting with Shakespeare and Say Something both filling runner-up positions.
Last weekend Weir secured his second Melbourne trainers’ premiership after winning doubles at Caulfield and Geelong.
His 298 winners this season was a personal best for Weir who operates stables at Ballarat and Warrnambool, eclipsing the 253 winners he prepared to win the Australian trainers’ title for the first time last season.
