Kent Plate champion back in action
Scooby The Lady returned to the track with a slick 16.24sec (-10) for the 285m trip in a solo trial at Hove today.
Richard Rees's bitch, the track-record breaking winner of the Arc Kent Plate at Central Park earlier this year, reached the semi-finals of the Star Sports & Orchestrate English Derby at Towcester before returning on final night for a titanic duel with Strike It Skye in the Derby Consolation, going down narrowly.
Being aimed at the Coral Sussex Cup at Hove next month, Scooby The Lady is set to be one of the leading contenders for outright honours in the £10,000 Category One annual.
The Coral Sussex Cup over 515m is once again staged alongside the Premier Greyhound Racing Regency over 695m.
Entries for both major 36-runner events close at noon on July 13 with the heats of the two competitions on Saturday, July 18.
The semi-finals are a week later with the finals on Saturday, August 1.
