MISS
SPICY
RESUMES
THIS
WEEK
It
has
certainly
been
a
cold
winter
in
Adelaide
,
but
things
should
warm
up
at
Angle
Park
this
Thursday
with
the
return
to
the
track
of
Miss
Spicy.
Local
fans
will
get
to
see
the
reigning
Adelaide
Cup
and
Australian
Cup
winner’s
return
from
injury
and
hopefully
the
start
of
another
successful
Group
race
campaign.
Miss
Spicy
took
all
before
her
between
November
and
April,
winning
the
two
Group
1
features
at
Angle
Park
and
the
Meadows,
along
with
the
Group
3
Bunyip
Gawler
Cup
and
Advertiser
Interstate
Challenge.
Then
following
a
win
in
her
heat
of
the
Golden
Easter
Egg
at
Wentworth
Park
on
April
1st,
injury
struck
meaning
an
enforced
layoff.
In
a
30
start
career,
Miss
Spicy
has
won
19
races,
including
6
out
of
7
at
Angle
Park
.
Her
earnings
have
already
topped
$235,000
and
she
currently
leads
the
Australian
Greyhound
Racing
Association
Rankings
for
2006.
This
must
make
her
one
of
the
early
favourites
for
the
Australian
Greyhound
of
the
Year
Award.
Trainer
Troy
Murray
has
been
trialling
her
over
recent
weeks
and
reports
from
track
watchers
suggest
that
she
has
been
working
extremely
well,
so
she
shouldn’t
be
far
away
from
her
best
on
Thursday
night.
The
quality
of
Adelaide
’s
sprinting
ranks
has
been
on
the
improve
over
recent
weeks
and
she
meets
a
strong
field
this
week.
This
includes
kennelmate
Quinyana
and
reigning
SA
Greyhound
of
the
Year,
Magic
Lee,
which
won
the
Port
Augusta
Cup
on
the
weekend.
The
meeting
also
includes
the
$11,500
Metro
Holden
Champion
Puppy
Final
and
a
strong
supporting
card.
The
first
of
11
races
starts
at
6.44pm
.
