If Summer Quinn can match her namesake’s popularity, trainers Peter Lagogiane and George Farrugia have a winning greyhound on their hands. Named after a character from Baywatch, Summer Quinn has shown promise with seven wins and five minor placings in her young career. Recently, she finished second in a Group 1 event and is set to compete in the prestigious Flying Amy Classic.
Lagogiane humorously reveals that Summer Quinn’s name was inspired by the Baywatch character, chosen by Farrugia. Despite initial doubts, Summer Quinn has exceeded expectations, impressing with her performance and box manners. The decision to send her to Queensland for the racing carnival proved fruitful, leading her to the final event.
Summer Quinn’s rise through the ranks has been swift, with Lagogiane noting her improved performance and growth since her debut. Initially accompanying another greyhound for the carnival, Summer Quinn’s standout performances secured her a spot in the Flying Amy Classic final, demonstrating her potential.
During the carnival, Summer Quinn showcased her speed and agility, recording impressive split times and securing her place as one of the fastest in the heats. Lagogiane emphasizes the importance of a strong start for her success in the upcoming race, highlighting her track suitability and racing style.
With the Flying Amy Classic limited to young greyhounds, Summer Quinn’s agility and racing prowess have positioned her as a strong contender. Lagogiane acknowledges the tough competition but remains optimistic about Summer Quinn’s chances, especially if she can replicate her previous performances.
The Lagogiane kennel also boasts Badger’s Beast, who recently performed well in a race at Capalaba and is set to compete in the Grafton Thunderbolt. Lagogiane hints at the possibility of Badger’s Beast and She’s That Girl returning to Queensland for future races in the carnival.
As the racing scene unfolds, Summer Quinn’s journey in the Queensland Greyhound Racing Carnival continues, with high hopes pinned on her performance in the Flying Amy Classic. Lagogiane’s strategic approach and confidence in Summer Quinn’s abilities set the stage for an exciting and competitive race.
