Hoggan in regards to the greyhound’s performance, particularly in the concluding stages of the event.  Mrs Hoggan acknowledged that the greyhound did fall away over the concluding stages and noted that she had expected the greyhound to finish in a stronger fashion and that in her opinion both of her greyhounds in this event, FABULOUS SHOW and COPPER MINER are of a comparable ability.  Mrs Hoggan advised stewards that she had not noticed anything amiss with the greyhound leading up to the event but that the recent hot weather conditions may have played a part in the greyhound’s performance.  Stewards noted the trainer’s comments and Mrs Hoggan undertook to inform stewards should anything come to light with the greyhound in the proceeding days.

BOX 1 PHOTOGRAPHY 4/5th GRADE 395M
