Transition of racing to Q2 Parklands

RQ advises that the Q2 Parklands picnic meeting on Monday, April 28 has been cancelled due to insufficient nominations.

Greyhounds that were nominated for the picnic meeting will be given first preference to trial at a Q2 Parklands trial session next week. Please contact QGRC to book.

A picnic meeting needs to be conducted on Q2 Parklands prior to an official race meeting. As a result, Q2 Parklands race meetings scheduled for May 5 and 8 have been cancelled and will instead be conducted as picnic meetings.

The Q1 Lakeside meeting for Thursday, May 8 will be conducted as a night meeting.

There will be no 520m/600m/710m racing at Albion Park after the race meeting on Thursday, May 1.

Participants are encouraged to clear their greyhounds to race on Q2 Parklands as soon as possible.

The condition of nomination at the Q2 applies, requiring a greyhound nominated for an event at The Q to have successfully trialled out of the starting boxes to the satisfaction of QRIC stewards and/or QGRC officials, at the specific track it is to be nominated for (Q1, Q2 and/or Q Straight).

• Tuesday, April 29 - trial session;
• Wednesday, April 30 - trial session;
• Friday, May 2 - trial session;
