PUDZIANOWSKI

Pudzianowski named after a strong man showed his own strength with a track record win in a heat of the Greg Fahey Mid Distance Championship over the 599m trip. Owned by Greg Swann and trained at Moorleah by leading trainer Russell Watts.
This red fawn dog took out the Greg Fahey Mid Distance Championship Final in style. There was some concern as to whether he would be able to cross the field from the 8 box, but he showed great race sense and crossed without any interference and then put a gap in the field going down the back.
Pudzianowski won by 6L. We will see many more wins from this very talented greyhound.
