Wichita Greyhound Park on the outskirts of Wichita, Kansas, has a half dozen racers that are currently the class of the facility. One had an exceptional beginning to her career, another dominates the routes and had the third most wins in the entire nation in 2006, and the rest are accomplished sprinters. Wichita Greyhound Park runs a total of six performances per week, and is in the process of getting slot machines, just needing voter approval, which is expected to be a mere formality.

That will mean that the dogs will be running for higher purses, as the kennels will certainly get a piece of the slot pie. That's good news for the owners of Chevita, who so far in 2007 has won twenty-one of his twenty-six starts. The red male, a November 2004 son of Kiowa Sweet Trey, has been a star since breaking his Wichita Maiden last year. A winner of twelve consecutive races earlier this spring, Chevita flies to the front in the 1,650 foot sprints and then extends the lead, as few at Wichita are capable of hanging with this 76 pound runner. In a recent encounter with fifteen race winner I'm Feelingmyoats, Chevita forged an early lead and won handily for his twenty-sixth triumph, as he leads all Wichita dogs in firsts this season. Oats is no slouch himself, and is in fact Chevita's full brother, with a similar running style that has been quite successful at the Kansas track.
