Allan Joyce had been training greyhounds for 30 years before he produced the first three place-getters in a race. Now, he has achieved the feat twice in seven days.

Joyce and his training partner of 10 years, Michael May, produced Star Gun, Rule Judge and Tie My Tie to finish first, second and third (the trifecta) in a c2 310m race at Forbury Park yesterday.

They had achieved the same feat with Waterhouse, Rule Judge Judy and Cot Case Cutie in a similar race at Forbury Park last week.

Jinjarango maintained his unbeaten record in three starts at Forbury Park when he won the $8000 Graduation Final yesterday. He had won a heat at Ascot Park on September 4.

He is trained at Balcairn by Dave and Jean Fahey for the Pave The Way syndicate. Jinjarango has won 12 of his 20 starts.

The Faheys also won races yesterday with White Air and Sretror. Their 17-year-old son, Sean, and Ross Mathes had charge of a seven-member team.

White Air is owned in Australia by Tim Caines, who races Star Gun.
