Palm Beach Kennel has annual "Pooch Predictor" Super Bowl race on Friday

Palm Beach Kennel Club will hold its annual Super Bowl Pooch Predictor Race Friday afternoon.

One Greyhound will sport the blanket of the AFC champion Pittsburgh Steelers while the other dons the colors and logo of the NFC's Arizona Cardinals.

They will compete on the Royal Palm Course in an official schooling race. There will be no wagering on this event.

The teams the Greyhounds will represent were randomly selected. Representing the Pittsburgh Steelers and breaking from the one post will be ZE’s Jourdantown (ZE’s Akbar - ZE’s Beegrumbles) while racing for the Arizona Cardinals and breaking from the eight position will be his brother ZE’s Jaziel. Both Greyhounds race for Rader Racing Kennel.

The race will take place after Friday afternoon’s fifth official race at approximately 2:10 p.m.

The Palm Beach Kennel Club canines have correctly predicted nine of the last 12 Super Bowl champions, including two of the last three Bowl winners, the Indianapolis Colts and Steelers in 2007 and ‘06, respectively, according to the Kennel Club's news release.

On Sunday, the Poker Room will hold its first-ever Budweiser Tailgate Zone Super Party, which includes a special game-day buffet plus plenty of big-screen TVs.

In addition, Super Bowl high-hand cash prizes will be awarded every time the Cardinals score (one winner drawn for $500) and each time the Steelers put points on the board (two $500 winners). Eligible players will receive drawing coupons starting at noon by making a full house or better.

Tickets can be purchased in the Poker Room for $8 in advance or $10 on Super Sunday.

Palm Beach Kennel Club will end simulcasting Super Sunday and close the rest of the track at about 6 p.m.

Palm Beach Kennel Club is owned by the Rooney family, which also owns the Pittsburgh Steelers.
