The greyhound SON OF PRADA  underwent a post race Veterinarian examination and no apparent injuries were found.  When questioned over the performance of the greyhound trainer Mr. G Holmes advised that SON OF PRADA was having its 1st race start since 21 March 2016 and had trailled well leading up into today’s race and he was expecting a forward showing.  He stated the SON OF PRADA races best when on the lure and in his view is not a strong greyhound and has had a tendency to give ground over the concluding stages.  He further stated that 395 would be the maximum distance he would like run the greyhound over.  He  stated that in his view the field that SON OF PRADA was racing in today was of superior quality and whilst he rated the greyhound’s chances well he did not support it in today’s event.  Stewards noted his explanation however, instructed him to advise them if there was anything to come amiss with the greyhound in that upcoming days.
