Steward's Report
Stewards spoke to Mr Clive McLennan, the trainer of Forever Cousins, regarding the length of time the greyhound has had between races. Forever Cousins last raced on 2 July 2017 and is returning to racing following injuries to both metacarpals.
Mr Alexander Whitehead, the trainer of Sudoku Buddah, declared a new weight of 34.0kg for the greyhound in accordance with GAR 39(2). Sodoku Buddah last raced at 32.3kg.
Sudoku Buddah was slow to begin.
Dr. Colt and Sudoku Buddah collided soon after the start. Cullquin Abbey and Undercover Viv collided soon after the start. Blazin' About and Forever Cousins collided approaching the 300m mark. Dr. Colt checked off Forever Cousins at the 300m mark. Allen Ernie checked off Cullquin Abbey at the 250m mark. Bushman's Legend and Cullquin Abbey collided at the 100m mark. Forever Cousins eased at the winning post.
Stewards spoke to Mr Clive McLennan, the trainer of the greyhound Forever Cousins, regarding the greyhound’s racing manners approaching the winning post. Forever Cousins was vetted following the event. It was reported that the greyhound sustained injuries to the right sartorius (pencil) muscle, a seven-day stand down period was imposed. Acting under GAR 69(B)(1), the stewards charged Forever Cousins with failing to pursue the lure with due commitment (by reason of injury). Mr McLennan pleaded guilty to the charge, Forever Cousins was found guilty and stewards directed that the greyhound perform a Satisfactory Trial (all tracks) pursuant to GAR 69(B)(1)(a), before any future nomination will be accepted.
Cullquin Abbey was vetted following the event. It was reported that the greyhound sustained injuries to the right long head triceps (monkey) and left gastrocnemius (calf) muscles. A 14-day stand down period was imposed.
Stewards issued a warning to Mr Richard Anchen, the trainer of Cullquin Abbey, regarding the greyhound’s racing manners at the 100m mark.
A sample was taken from Blazin' About, the winner of the event.
