Bag The Cash makes it six in a row with Townsville win
Bag The Cash served up a huge performance to take the victory in Townsville on Tuesday, notching up his sixth-straight win.
The Mark Partland-trained dog was the race favourite, paying $2 with online greyhound bookmakers.
Out of box five, he jumped well and was joined by the Brad Belford-trained Lady Steps ($6.50) for most of the trip.
In the straight, Bag The Cash looked to be running short of puff with Lady Steps taking a slight lead.
But Bag The Cash took back the lead in the shadows of the post, running on to win by 0.75 lengths in a time of 22.09.
