Mountjoy Osprey thunders his way to victory in the 400m Coral Puppy Trophy Final
Mountjoy Osprey comfortably nabbed the victory in the 400 metres Coral Puppy Trophy Final Open Race at Romford on Friday, January 13, 2012. All hounds that took part in this event were less than two years of age, and the prize money for the winning
puppy was £750.
There was not much competition at the top of the order, as Mountjoy Osprey was in no mood to mess around. He was also the favourite dog to win the race, and he lived up to his reputation in the end.
The result would have pleased all the bettors, who put their money on the favourite greyhound.
Mountjoy Osprey completed the race distance in 24.07 seconds, after going in from trap number four. He had a starting price of 1 to 3, and did not disappoint his trainer, M A Wallis.
