Supplementary Report 

GRV Stewards today (19 April 2019) concluded an inquiry into the eligibility of Bad Ones to race since incurring a marring offence under GAR 69 at Muswellbrook NSW, on 24 March 2019. Evidence was taken from Victorian Trainer Mr Justin Hetherton and information supplied by NSW Greyhound Racing Officials.  It was established and is not in dispute, that Bad Ones marred at Muswellbrook on 24 March 2019 and was penalised under GAR 69 by NSW Stewards. The mandatory penalty for such offence was issued on a first offence basis; that being a 28-day suspension at Muswellbrook and one (1) satisfactory trial before racing again. There was no such evidence of the completion of any satisfactory trial by Bad Ones either before leaving NSW or since coming to Victoria. Due to an administrative error in NSW, the penalty from 24 March 2019 was not recorded into the racing systems (Oz Chase) and as such, Bad Ones was not prevented from being nominated and raced in Victoria: By virtue of Bad Ones not completing the satisfactory trial component of GAR 69, the Stewards of GRV deem that Bad Ones was ineligible to compete in this event. As a result, Bad Ones has been disqualified from this event, the results, placings and prizemoney have been amended accordingly, in accordance with GAR 64. Bad Ones must trial to the satisfaction of Stewards prior to racing again.
