best to begin. Shortly after the start

LITTLE RAMONA was tightened for racing room, checked and lost ground. Entering the back straight LITTLE RAMONA
was tightened and momentarily hampered. The greyhound LITTLE RAMONA was

When questioned Trainer Ms. M Johnson stated that LITTLE RAMONA was
returning from being injured at its previous race start on 29 February
2016. The greyhound had trialled well
leading up into today’s race and she was expecting a forward showing. She stated that after receiving a check
entering the back straight LITTLE RAMONA is not a strong greyhound and was
effected by that interference. Whilst
the greyhound finished in last position she was not disappointed with its
overall performance. Ms. M Johnson the trainer of KNAVE
stated that KNAVE was returning to race after it was injured at its previous
start on 17 March 2016 where it has split its webbing. She stated that KNAVE had trailled well
over the 395m distance and was expecting a forward showing. She further stated that the greyhound would
benefit from today’s run and it will be her intention to step it up to the
520m distance in the near future.
Stewards noted her explanation however, advised her that they expect
KNAVE to race over a consistent distance in the near future. |

GARRARD’S
HORSE & HOUND 5th GRADE HEAT 3 395M FABULOUS WALL was best to
begin. AZTEC FLASH was extremely slow
to begin. Approaching the turn into
the back straight BAZZA’S ISSUE, MAGIC PASS and OBIN TOMMY were all tightened
for racing room, checked and lost ground.
AZTEC FLASH raced wide in the back straight. Rounding the turn into the front straight
AZTEC FLASH was held up for clear running and short after bumped OBIN TOMMY. The greyhound AZTEC FLASH was vetted
and no apparent injuries were found.
Trainer Mrs. K Hoggan when questioned over its performance stated that
AZTEC FLASH was very excitable prior to the race and appeared to be fractious
when placed in the boxes which may have contributed to its poor start. She stated that once the greyhound had missed
the start and received an early check from BAZZA’S ISSUE in her view directly
affected its racing position and therefore where it finished in the
event. She further stated that AZTEC
FLASH had been returning to race since the previous start on the 27 January
2016 due to some minor injury and she was satisfied that the greyhound was
fit to race and expected a forward showing in today’s event. She stated that AZTEC FLASH is a greyhound
that finishes on in its races and will benefit from today’s event. Stewards noted Mrs. Hoggan’s explanation. |
