Best racing greyhound

The top-ranked Karen Legg Kennel has produced many champions, but few are as thrilling to watch as Shootyz Groove, a two-and-a-half-year-old sprinter with a dazzling burst of early speed. In the winter meet at Wembley Park (aka Mile High Kennel Club), Groove hit the wire first in fourteen of his twenty-three starts, including the Winter Sprint Championship, and he won seventeen of 21 this spring at Cloverleaf, in Loveland. Upon returning to the Big Store June 9, the brindle son of P's Raising Cain out of MJ's Shadow promptly won the Inaugural by more than seven lengths. His next big test will come July 8, when he'll likely go off as the favorite in the Colorado Classic.
