examination and no apparent injuries were found. Stewards questioned trainer Mr. D. Titmarsh
on the below market expectation performance of the greyhound. Mr. Titmarsh stated the he believed the interference
that CLASSIC TERRA suffered in the top turn severely hampered the greyhound,
and was the only reason he could offer that the greyhound finished at the
back of the field. Mr. Titmarsh stated that he did not support the greyhound
on this occasion and he believed the greyhound’s starting price was a
reflection on the box as opposed to the greyhound’s ability. Mr. Titmarsh undertook to inform stewards
if anything comes to light with the greyhound in the coming days. |
