Seven Yakutian Laikas chased the lure into the AKC Fast CAT rankings in 2022, and Northstar's Second Coup D'Etat blazed to the front at 24.58 mph — 100 yards in a flat 8.32 seconds, just off 2021's 24.90 mph best — the 2nd straight year planting a flag atop the Yakutian Laika rankings, edging Northstar's Steel Curtain by a whisker (0.12 mph). The field grew from 5 ranked dogs the year before. Behind the leader, the top 7 averaged 22.3 mph.
