Lexi Boost goes back-to-back at Grafton
Lexi Boost was airborne as she made it back-to-back wins at Grafton on Tuesday night.
The Sonia Kempshall-trained chaser lined up in the 350m fifth-grade final as race favourite, paying $1.75 with top greyhound bookmakers.
Jumping from box four, she flew out to hit the lead and dictated terms for the entire journey.
She beat home Dustin Diesel ($5.50) and Laurie’s Jess ($6.50) by three lengths in a time of 19.86.
Lexi Boost – Grafton, August 22
Last time out, on August 15, Lexi Boost took out her heat of the fifth-grade series by one and a half lengths as a $1.33 favourite.
Lexi Boost’s trainer said that she had other qualities that made her a great racing bitch.
“She is a nice bitch with impeccable manners and attitude,” Kempshall said.
From six runs at the 350m Grafton journey, she has three wins and two placings.
Her career started on December 12 last year in a maiden heat over the Shepparton 385m trip where she finished fifth.
Lexi Boost would break her maiden a week later over the same journey, beating home Jayville Bolt and Tat Kenny.
From her last 16 starts she has only gone unplaced twice showcasing her 75% strike rate of racing into placings.
The Zambora Brockie x Fancy Minter bitch has nine wins and nine placings from 24 career starts and has earned $27,010 in prize money for connections.
