Yes, Joe is a greyhound racing fan. The lightning fast decision-making and pure athleticism of the dogs are simply phenomenal to watch.

Saturday night the top pups at Derby Lane in St. Petersburg square off in the 70th annual Gold Trophy Juvenile stakes. It’s a 550-yard sprint and the feature race of the night.

Joe really likes Backwood Nan, a 59-pound female who should benefit greatly from a clear shot on the rail from the No. 1 box. The race goes off about 9:25 p.m. Saturday night’s card starts at 7:30 p.m., following the 12:30 p.m. matinee. Good luck.
