Dubbo Greyhound Club hosted what is claimed to be the richest middle-distance race in the world at Dawson Park on Saturday night.
The Stockman & Paddock Country Classic Final winner Zipping Kyrgios trained in Orange by John Finn took home $125,000 while his kennel mate Zipping Alabama added $15,000 after finishing third.
Dubbo President Shane Stiff was a happy man.
“On Friday we unveiled our new broadcast tower with state-of-the-art facilities for stewards and judges. Our photo finish is top of the range and our caller Michael Dumesney was falling out of his seat with excitement. The best seat in the house, literally.”
The Brother Fox Carnival will be another draw card next month and then in May the Dawson Park track will light up on the eve of the South Sydney/Canberra Raiders NRL clash.
