Amity Bale Is November’s Greyhound Of The Month
November started with a super win in the final of the Group 2 Hume Cup not only did she win the final effortlessly by broke the Meadows track record in the process. Next it was back to Wentworth Park for the heats of the Summer Cup she had no trouble making yet another final winning in the fastest time of the night 42.14.
In the final a week later she had to work hard but once in the lead she raced away to win her sixth Group race in a row holding off the fast finishing Forty Twenty.
The win was also her nine straight victory. Back in Melbourne Amity Bale contested the Bold Trease Carnival Cup, this year the race had to be made a final only after a lack of nominations prevented the Sandown club staging heats and the final on Melbourne Cup night. Starting a $1.70 favourite she final tasted defeat for the first time since early September. Having no much luck in running she finished third behind Drill ‘em in a fast 42.08.
