High Earner’s 2009 WA Derby Win
The 2009 Group 2 Brittons Formal Wear W.A. Derby confirmed Queensland’s next group greyhound racing star when High Earner ($2.80) won the Britton’s WA Derby by 2 lengths in 30.29 for trainer Christine Robartson.
Robartson and her husband Dave are formerly from WA and won the WA Derby in 1992 and 1994 with Eljay and Michael’s Tears before heading across to QLD.
Reports are that this young dog may be even better than Australian Greyhound of the Year El Galo who they bred before selling to Melbourne connections.

I work at casino landfill nsw and have came across the trophy of janarlee tiger the 1986 winner of the wa canning show cup . do you have any intrest in the cup as it was thrown out on the tip.
Yes, I definitely would. Do you have any idea how it arrived there? Would like to do a short story for the website if you can get a photo of you guys with the cup and a little background to it.
