Punk Warrior Awarded Australian Greyhound Racing Run of the Month For July 2011

's for July 2011 has been awarded to come from behind middle distance chaser Punk Warrior.

He won the award for his barn storming performance to come from last and win his heat of the on July 7th.

The son of Vapour Whirl came from a clear last just after the start, then weaved his way through the quality field, getting clear in the home straight to fly down the outside grab the lead before racing away to win by a length and a quarter in 34.53.

Punk Warrior has made a habit of being out the back in the early part of his races and is always doing his best work at the end. He has mainly raced over the middle distances with a few starts over the 700.

However amazingly he won his first three starts two at over the 390 and one at over 430. In the two final of the McKenna he finished behind the placings in fifth spot.

As usual there were some outstanding runs recorded in July but Punk Warrior got the nod for his outstanding performance running down a field of quality greyhounds in a Group 2 heat of the McKenna Memorial.

AGRA congratulates owner Christopher Perkins, trainer and Punk Warrior on being judged the AGRA Run of the Month for July 2011. He joins the previous winners for 2011. (2), Symmetry, , stayer Bobby Boucheau and Queenslander Bogie King
