the greyhound EARLY SETTLER received in the 1st race. Mr Cassidy stated that the greyhound had
trialled well at Ipswich 2 weeks prior, and that he had supported the
greyhound today and was confident considering it drew the box 1. Mr CASSIDY
further stated the greyhound is a dog that enjoys racing to the rails which
made him even more confident in today’s race. The greyhound

injuries were found. The greyhound
