With a record of 17 wins from 35 starts, he has brought pride and joy to his ownership group, which includes Ryan Papenhuyzen, from rugby league and AFL player Tom Papley as part of the Punters HQ Syndicate.
Hayley Moffitt, the daughter of trainer Andy Lord, shared her joy and gratitude following the race.
She highlighted the importance of this victory for their family and praised Nangar Larry's performance.
Moffitt noted his start and strategic positioning during the race, crediting these factors for his win.
Looking ahead, Nangar Larry is aiming for success in the Temora Cup, with a prize of $40,000 (457m) set to kick off on March 3.
While Nangar Jim's second place finish was commendable, recognition should also go to Swindled, a greyhound owned by Keith and Lisa Hellmuth who faced some challenges during the race.
With anticipation building for Nangar Larry's competition at the Temora Cup, his star continues to shine in the world of greyhound racing.
