ANGLISS MEATS TOWNSVILLE MAIDEN 380M

MR. MERVE was the best to begin.  WILDASH ONE DAY commenced to lose ground on the turn out of the back straight to finish a distant last.  A veterinary inspection of the greyhound revealed no abnormalities.  Stewards acting under the provisions of GAR 71 stood WILDASH ONE DAY down from racing until the completion of a satisfactory trials for an unsatisfactory performance.

FV ARUNTA MAIDEN 380M

Stewards reviewed the film of the race prior to “ALL CLEAR” being semaphored.  After viewing the film, in particular in relation to the lure after turning out of the back straight, stewards were of the opinion that no greyhound was advantaged or disadvantaged at this stage of the race and the “ALL CLEAR” was semaphored.

 

Even start with TARA ROSE slow to begin.  SLIPPERY COIN was tightened for racing room and lost ground shortly after the start.  FLYING MOZZIE was tightened for racing room and lost some ground on the turn out of the back straight.  POPPY CHOOKY and WINNIE’S ROSE bumped entering the front straight resulting in both greyhounds losing some ground.
