2 Another Level – compounded over the concluding stages. A post-race veterinary examination did not reveal any abnormalities. Stewards spoke to trainer Mark Partland regarding the greyhounds’ actions over the concluding stages. Mr Partland said that he believed the greyhound was travelling well when rounding the home turn and in the early stages of the home straight, however appeared awkward in its action when approaching the winning post. Stewards noted the greyhound ran a time of 29.46 seconds, which is close to its most recent start. Mr Partland advised he expected the greyhound to finish the race more strongly and was disappointed with its finish. He further added he would monitor the greyhound but would continue with its racing pattern. |
