Angela Langton will head into Friday nights Geelong Winter Cup as the only trainer eligible for the $1,000 Beckley Centre bonus with her greyhound Hit The Runway (pictured with trainer Angela Langton before the Group One Rookie Rebel earlier this year).

Back-to-back Geelong Winter Cup winner Wind Whistler (pictured in a heat of the Group One Sandown Cup in 2016) will have to watch the running of his prized 596 metre feature event from the couch this year after retiring from racing six months ago.
