< Back TUVIA TAKES DUBUQUE CLASSIC Sep 9, 2021 Competing against a balanced field in Iowa Greyhound Park’s Dubuque Classic final, the winner would need to have to work hard and have things fall the right way. Superior Tuvia was up for the task, as she claimed the title during the afternoon card on Sunday, Sept. 5. “She needed a little luck,” said trainer Jerry Cole. “I knew she had to be close. She doesn’t run turns all that great but once she hit the front stretch on two’s (Cheer For Me) tail I knew she had a chance.” Cheer For Me grabbed an early lead and Tuvia, of Superior Kennel, broke fourth. Tuvia got to her preferred part of the track with Cheer For Me about 3 lengths ahead. “There wasn’t a whole lot of early speed,” Cole said. As she moved up and gained the lead, Cole had another thought. “When she got clear, I asked ‘where’s Rasta?’” Cole said.“That lead gave her enough to win. Rasta and Cheer For Me can be lights out.” Rasta, the defending champion from Copper Kettle Kennel, had some problems during the race which prevented him from hitting the board. He finished fifth. Tuvia earned her seventh win of the season. She also won the Au Revoir last year. “She doesn’t give up,” Cole said. “She’s pretty tough. I had a feeling she could do it.” Cole said Tuvia, from Kiowa Sweet Trey and Superior Samba, will stay on the track for awhile. “As long as she keeps doing what she’s doing, we’ll keep her running,” Cole said. “We’ll keep letting her do it.” Tuvia paid $14.60, $3.60 and $3. She posted a 40.20 to win by nearly 4 lengths. Cheer For Me, of Plum Creek Kennel-Oxbow Trow, placed. Kennel mate Cuspof Greatness showed.Dutch McGruff, of Copper Kennel, was fourth. Other finalists were O Ya Jewel (Superior Kennel) in sixth, XT’s Wild Turkey (Xtrem Hess Racing) in seventh and Eager Erlene (Copper Kettle), eighth. The purse is $30,000, with a breakdown of $12,000, $6,000, $3,000, $2,400, $2,100, $1,800, $1,500 and $1,200. Rasta was the top qualifier, Cheer For Me second, Cuspof Greatness third and Superior Tuviav fourth. Fathree, Copper Kettle, won in 2018, and Superior Tora, Superior Kennel, won in 2019.

< Back $100,000 MOUNTAINEER CLASSIC HIGHLIGHTS 2021 WHEELING STAKES SCHEDULE Stan Pawloski Aug 4, 2021 In last year’s championship final of the $100,000 Mountaineer Classic at Wheeling Island, West Virginia-bred sprinter CG’s Penny Shoe closed deep in the stretch to give the Abrahamson Kennel and trainer Tom Engle their biggest stakes victory ever. CG’s Penny Shoe went on to earn 2020 first team All-American honors from the National Greyhound Association as well as a spot on the all-Wheeling team. The $100,000 Mountaineer Classic is back this year and highlights the 2021 stakes schedule for Wheeling Island. The racetrack’s featured stakes event is scheduled for October and is sandwiched between a pair of West Virginia Greyhound Owners and Breeders Association championships – a juvenile and a middle distance stake. The stakes schedule has been approved by the West Virginia Racing Commission. Just like last year, there is no start requirement for greyhounds coming in from other racetracks as well as Wheeling-based racers for the Mountaineer Classic. Greyhounds must only have one schooling race and need not have reached a certain grade to enter the stakes event. The winning greyhound will receive approximately 40 percent of the total stakes purse – a check of $42,000. Runner up is worth $18,000 with the third place finisher receiving $13,000 and fourth place getting $10,000. Fifth and sixth place will receive $5,500 each while seventh and eighth will get $3,000 apiece. There will be three qualifying rounds – Sunday, Oct. 3, Friday, Oct. 8 and Wednesday, Oct. 13 – before the semifinals on Sunday, Oct. 17. The championship final will be on Saturday, Oct. 23. The 2020 Mountaineer Classic had an opening field of 88 sprinters. The $35,000 WVGOBA Juvenile Stakes (5/16th) will be held in September. The first round is set for Friday, Sept. 10, the second round on Wednesday, Sept. 15 and the semi-finals on Sunday, Sept. 19. The juvenile stakes final is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 25. The $65,000 WVGOBA Keystone Championship (3/8th) starts on Friday, Nov. 12, with the second round on Wednesday, Nov. 17. The semifinals will be contested on Sunday, Nov. 21. The Keystone stakes championship is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 27. Previous Next

< Back CET DIRTY DILLY REPEATS IN RURAL RUBE, FGF DAVYCROCKETT SELECTED FOR FLASHY SIR IN 2022 AWARDS Jim Gartland Feb 21, 2023 A West Virginia speedster and a Southland distance star have been chosen as recipient's of the NGA’s annual Awards; CET Dirty Dilly returns as the repeat winner of the Rural Rube and Southland distance star, FGF Davycrocket t has captured the Flashy Sir. With no major stakes scheduled in 2022, the NGA awards took on a different look and voting method but, no doubt, the two winners were obvious selections. A 2018 daughter of SH Avatar-CET Dirty Nicki , CET Dirty Dilly continued right where she left off in 2021, tearing up the competition at Tri State on her way to a North American leading 40 wins on the year. Three different times during the season, she would go on seven race win streaks and would end the year on December 30th with an impressive ten length romp. She would finish out of the trifecta only once in all of her 48 starts finishing 7th in a race back in October where she encountered early trouble. She was also voted Captain of the All American team by the NGA. Owned and raced by Carl Tomblin II, Dilly was, obviously, the most consistent sprinter in the land over the past year. She won her first start in January and would win 39 more times including that last start in December. Dilly would finish the year with a 48-40-3-4-0 record, missing the pay sheet only once the entire year! A much deserved award for this fabulous sprinter. Congratulations to Carl Tomblin and all the connections of CET Dirty Dilly . FGF Davycrockett was a unanimous choice for the Flashy Sir award finishing the year as the win and money leader at Southland running strictly distance races. Crockett is a July 2019 son of Trent Lee-FGF Jamboree and was a Southland distance star for the Charter Kennel. Racing exclusively at 660 and 703 yards, Crockett was equally tough at either distance. His first win of the year came in January at 703 yards and his last at 660 yards in December. In between he would miss the pay sheet only five times over the course of the year. He finished with a 45-18-9-5-8 record and earned well over $300,000 for his efforts. Crockett , who was also named to the 2022 All American team, was raised and is owned by Kevin Fulton. Congratulations to FGF Davycrockett and all his connections! The 52nd Annual NGA Rural Rube and Flashy Sir awards will be presented at the awards ceremonies program at the Greyhound Hall of Fame on Thursday night, April 27, during the NGA's Spring Meet.
