When questioned over the performance of ALOTA AMY trainer Mr. K Mackenroth stated the greyhound was having its 1st race start on 19 November 2016 at Ipswich where it was injured in that event.  He stated the greyhound had worked well since and had trialled extremely well leading up to today’s race and he expected a forward showing.  He said that ALOTA AMY had received significant interference in the front straight on the 1st occasion which in his view contributed to its overall performance.  Upon viewing the available replays Mr. Mackenroth conceded that the greyhound had eased at certain stages over the event however, he contributed to it being injured in the early part of the race.  He further stated that he was of the view that ALOTA AMY is better suited to racing at Ipswich rather than the Albion Park circuit and it would be his intention to continue racing at that venue.  After considering all the available evidence and the fact that ALOTA AMY was found to have injured its off hind leg, Stewards took no further action other than to stand the greyhound down for a period of 10 days.  The greyhound ALOTA AMY underwent a post-race veterinarian examination and was found to have suffered an injury to the off hind leg and was stood down for a period of 10 days.
