When questioned on the improved performance of MADAM MEDUSA trainer Mr. B McNamara advised stewards that over the last fortnight he had been putting extra work into the greyhound and he believed that its fitness was improving, as well as the greyhound maturing. He also made reference to its recent fall which may have affected confidence, and in regards to its last start at Ipswich he advised that he believed the greyhound had struck its head on the starting boxes in this event and this may have contributed to the poor performance.
