Track record and a Trifecta for Rod Clark

By Peter Quilty

Oriental Amber was a ‘gem’, breaking Horsham’s 410-metre track record yesterday.

Trained by Rod Clark (pictured inset), the “Toolleen Tornado” semaphored a sparkling 22.64sec – slicing 0.02sec off the previous mark of 22.66sec, set by Benchester on November 10 last year.

A greyhound with abundant ‘cut and polish’, Oriental Amber ($2.30F) led in a kennel trifecta defeating Helen’s Memory ($3.20) by 7.51L, with litter sister Oriental Jade ($6.30) a further 0.56L away third.

And Clark wasn’t surprised on two fronts: the record and the trifecta.

“She’s the real deal… I thought she’d eventually pinch a record”
