The greyhound MAGIC MAIDEN was vetted and no apparent injuries were found.  Stewards interviewed trainer Mr. E Kleinhans in regards to the reasons for him dropping the greyhound back to the 395m considering its previous race starts over the 520m.  Mr. Kleinhans stated he dropped the greyhound back to this distance as the previous company of races were more difficult for the greyhound.  After reviewing today’s performance Mr. Kleinhans will now be stepping MAGIC MAIDEN back up to the 520m as a result of today’s somewhat disappointing performance.
