The greyhound HAPPY HASWELL underwent a post race veterinarian examination and no apparent injuries were found.  When questioned trainer Mr. N Catchpole reported that the greyhound had trailled well leading up to today’s race however, hadn’t started since the 27 November 2014 and he was expecting a forward show and was of the view that HAPPY HASWELL was tightened in the early stages of the race and then wanted to shift in and had suffered interference throughout the race which was a direct influence on where the greyhound had finished.  He stated that HAPPY HASWELL will improve with future racing and it is his intention to give it a short let up before producing it over the longer distances.  Stewards noted Mr. Catchpole’s explanation.
