the litter with Flamingo Flyer’s litter brother, Barrio Blade winning the Anzac
Day Trophy.
Congratulations to Greg, Michelle and Rylee
Stella on the win of Rylee’s Revenge in the final of
the Ipswich Auction Series on Tuesday night. It is a mighty effort for a dog to
get through this series and win – and it couldn’t happen to a nicer family! The
Stella’s have had success at

Winter Carnival – Group 1 Nights
The VIP Petfoods Gold Cup Final will
be held on 8 June and the Garrards
Horse and Hound Winter Carnival Cup Final on 20 July. We are planning two spectacular nights both
on and off the track.
Silks will be open on both nights providing an excellent smorgasbord
dinner and a great view of the nights’ racing. We need the support of the
greyhound industry to ensure that we can maintain the viability of opening
Silks on these occasions. The cost will be $32.50 per person. Bookings are
essential – please phone 3262 2044 ASAP to reserve your table. The menu for the night is attached to today’s
Albion Angle.
There will be plenty of entertainment on both nights, with the Gold Cup
being themed around “A Magic Night“.
While we’re certain of seeing plenty of magic on the track, the off
track entertainment will include roving magicians, The Phoenix Fire Tribe, kids
entertainers, a jumping castle, the Afghan Hounds racing, raffles and more.
The Winter Carnival Cup night will have a “Carnivale”
atmosphere with circus performers, jumping castle and more to be announced.
We plan to make these nights a highlight of your racing calendar.
Please tell your friends and organise a table or two in Silks and make a big
night of it.
