Charity cup winner a model of consistency

The Mount Gambier Cancer Support Group Tara Tipsters Cup presentation at Tara Raceway last Sunday.

Representatives of the Mount Gambier Cancer Support Group, looking resplendent in their distinctive tops, were out in force last Sunday at Tara Raceway for the running of the Tara Tipsters Cup (512 metres).

And it was Bourne Model, having only her fourth race start for Allendale East trainer David Peckham, who led all the way from box seven for a three length win over Aston Colette in 29.96 seconds.

The daughter of Feral Franky and Sweet On Me also won the long-running John Reid Memorial Maiden (512 m) last month for the locally-based Bourne Team – Peckham, Kevin Douglas, Kevin Patzel and Christine Yourgules.

Peckham is now preparing Bourne Model, a September 2022 whelping, for this month’s $6500 Cadillac Racing Winter Classic (512 m), an age restricted classic for dogs and bitches whelped on or after July 1, 2022.

Sweet On Me, currently this year’s leading dam at Tara Raceway with 18 winners, won the Mount Gambier Greyhound Racing Club’s companion event, the Summer Classic, back in 2020.

Following the running of the cup, Lorraine Musgrove of the Cancer Support Group once again sincerely thanked the MGGRC and its participants for their generous support of local charities through the twice-weekly Tara Tipsters competition.

Winner of the Mount Gambier Cancer Support Group 19-round series was Adelaide-based Tim Aloisi, a great supporter of the Tara Tipsters, who narrowly finished in front of locals Kevin Patzel and Craig Grubb.
