RACE REPORTS

 

1.

WWW.IPSWICHGREYHOUNDS.COM MAIDEN 520M

Even start.  Shortly after the start PANALO collided with AMUS UNLEASHED resulting in both greyhounds to be checked and lose ground.  Shortly after SATAN’S GIFT was tightened for room, checked and lost ground.  In the front straight on the 1st occasion PANALO shifted out which tightened for racing of AMUS UNLEASHED resulting in that greyhound to be checked and lose ground.  Rounding the turn out of the front straight COSMIC COPY and AUSSIE DIAMOND collided resulting in both greyhounds to be checked and lose ground.  AUSSIE DIAMOND shifted out as a result of this incident and collided with FROSTY FOX resulting in both greyhounds to be checked and lose ground.  SATAN’S GIFT which was trailing was checked as a consequence.  Shortly after FROSTY FOX and SATAN’S GIFT collided heavily resulting in both greyhounds to be severely checked and lose ground.  Approaching the turn into the back straight AMUS UNLEASHED and FROSTY FOX collided resulting in both greyhounds to be checked and lose ground.

 

The greyhound FROSTY FOX underwent a post-race veterinarian examination and no apparent injuries were found.  Stewards questioned trainer Mr. R Attard in regards to its actions rounding the turn into the back straight where it appeared the greyhound may have eased.  After considering all evidence and in particular the interference the greyhound suffered just prior to the incident taking place, Stewards could not be comfortably satisfied that a charge should be substantiated against the greyhound and advised Mr. Attard that they would be monitoring the greyhound’s performances in its upcoming events.
