Track Record and Fast Times at Gawler
It was Gawler’s turn today for a track record to fall after there were two recorded last month at Strathalbyn.
The Art Verhoef trained Cash Or Credit made it back to back wins for the inform trainer over the 400m today at Gawler and along the way claimed the short course track record. Cash Or Credit ran a brilliant 22.34 after leading all of the way defeating Avid Tyson by 6 lengths. Interestingly it was Avid Tyson’s track record that he broke of 22.44 which was set in March of this year.
Fast times were the order of the day at Gawler with Emerley Lover for trainer Troy Murray taking out the Katakasi Veterinary Services Gawler Future Stars Final in a blistering 30.36 for the 531m journey after leading most of the way which was only .13 outside Regional Image’s track record which was set 10 years ago. This was followed in the very next race by reigning SA Greyhound of the Year Hope’s Up for Cameron Butcher who lead all of the way in race 9 to record an even quicker 30.31. The fast times at Strathalbyn, Gawler and Angle Park could be attributed to recent track turnovers which seem to have improved greyhounds performances.
