Steward's Report
Dyna Virion - Late scratching at 17:10pm on the advice of the On-Track Veterinarian (GAR 37) due to pyrexia. A 5 day stand down period was imposed. Stewards spoke with trainer Ms Cassendra Jayakody with regard to the circumstances surrounding the late scratching of the greyhound, noted the trainers advice and further ordered a veterinary certificate of fitness pursuant to GAR 20 (3) (v) before any future nomination will be accepted.
Gotham Duke and Sharky Shark were quick to begin. Mepunga Spectre was slow to begin.
Mepunga Spectre and Sharky Shark collided on the first turn. Aussie Secret galloped on the heels of Sharky Shark on the first turn. Gotham Duke visibly eased and shifted out colliding several times with Coco Nova approaching the home turn; both greyhounds raced wide as a result.
