Stewards spoke to trainer M Kirillidis regarding the greyhound’s racing manners in the event, after hearing the steward’s observation, reviewing the video replay and the trainers’ submissions, stewards deemed that Weblec Marquise did make head contact with the greyhound to its outside therefore invoked GAR 123 Marring. As this was the greyhound’s 1st offence under this rule Weblec Marquise was suspended from racing at Albion Park for 28 days and until the completion of a satisfactory steward’s trial prior to racing next.
