GREYHOUNDS:  ZaZa does it again

SCOTS 2/1 shot ZaZa stormed to her fourth sprint win in a row at Gretna's Halcrow Greyhound Stadium at the weekend.

The home-bred three-year-old black bitch, owned and trained by Rob Hyslop of Hawick, has turned in some impressive performances in recent weeks.

She won all her heats and the final in the 2016 Easter Sprint Handicap and on Friday night powered home with a comfortable five lengths lead.

The early leader, she was followed home by Magic Shift from the Little kennels at Carlisle.

In the following 280 metres race another consistent winner Hiawatha, trained Carlisle-based McCumskey kennels, won by two lengths from a fast-finishing Maisie Moo from Peter Waugh of Gretna.
