Without A Trace rewrites the record books in stunning TRFM Sale Cup triumph

Without A Trace has etched her name into Sale folklore, delivering a breathtaking performance to claim the Group 1 TRFM Sale Cup and shatter the 640-metre track record.

Stopping the clock at an electrifying 36.06 seconds, the brilliant stayer lowered the previous benchmark – set by Canya All Class – by two full lengths, producing a performance that left seasoned racegoers in awe.

Trained by Peter Presutto, Without A Trace showed all the hallmarks of a champion, settling into her rhythm before unleashing a powerful finishing burst to overwhelm her rivals.

Local Ascend Geranium set the tempo early but finished third behind Texas President.

Tonight’s victory capped a remarkable run for the daughter of Sale Cup winner Houdini Boy, who has now claimed three Group 1 titles in the space of just three months during an unforgettable campaign through the Sportsbet Dream Chasers Festival late last year.

It was another emphatic statement from a greyhound who continues to rise to every challenge placed in front of her.

From just 26 career starts, Without A Trace has already amassed more than $400,000 in prizemoney, a testament to her consistency, durability and elite staying prowess.

As the Sale crowd rose to its feet, the performance felt like more than just a Cup win – it was a defining moment in the career of a greyhound rapidly building a legacy.

Without A Trace (7) wins the TRFM Sale Cup in track record time.
