Shakey Jakey Scratched From Magic Maiden
Greyhound racing's newest star, Shakey Jakey, has been withdrawn from this Friday's semi-final of the Sportingbet Magic Maiden series at Wentworth Park.
Trainer David Pringle informed ARG that his flying son of Collsion and Kiacatoo Pearl (History Lesson – Naughty Thoughts) was in doubt on his way home from Dubbo this afternoon, where he landed another track record with his brother Long Range.
“I will have a good look at him when I get home, but it is not looking good,” Pringle said, before recently confirming that he would not take his place on Friday night.
“He hurt himself in the catching pen after the heat and we are still hoping to get him up for the semi. The dog is definitely not retired though. We want to show people what he can really do. Imagine this dog at a one bend track, it could be scary.”
Shakey Jakey was phenomenal on his way to a 29.07 run which included a scintillating run home of 11.32.
The series has now been thrown wide open with a huge amount of chances now in the hunt for the $25,000 to-the-winner Group Three event.
Those catching pens are dangerous places
Terry Kingcott
I reckon its sold
Offerd half a million for him he’s probably sold
Already knocked back 750k
Not sold
Far out, I must admit is run was bloody quick
Hope he’s back into work soon
Yet ha
No worse than a finish on lure
Oh the pressures of racing a freak how stressed out would you be ? every decision you make is scrutinised , debated then the keyboard heroes with the benefit of hindsight attack… When the money is there sell i say lol
Would’ve been a risk tonight from poor draw. Get him to bulli and maitland on big tracks. Will break those records then retire to stud.
If my dog wins by 20 I would have him out of the CP real fast, first mistake
