Angela Harrison won a thrilling Gain Greyhound Nutrition GTA Trainers Championship at Sheffield on Saturday night.
With the winners spread between five different kennels, and only four points between them, the title could have gone to any of them going into the last leg.
But with Droopys Verve and Droopys Expert proving her final two aces, the Newcastle trainer got home with two points to spare over Kevin Hutton.
