‘Wonder woman’ Wow She’s Fast has enjoyed a low-key training regimen in preparation for the Group 1 Adelaide Cup final (530m) at Angle Park on Friday night. “Team Greenough” (Jackie and Kel) has avoided the ‘lure’ of trialling Australia’s No. 1 sprinter since her track record-breaking SA vs All Stars Match Race Challenge win at Angle Park on September 22.
