RACE REPORTS

 

1.

UBET – DOWNLOAD THE APP MAIDEN 331M

The ‘all clear’ was delayed to allow stewards to view the available patrol film to determine whether any greyhound was disadvantaged in the front straight when there were birds on the track.  After viewing the film stewards were satisfied that no greyhounds’ chances were  materially affected and therefore gave the ‘all clear’.

 

Even start.  Entering the back straight BIG MAN RUSTY and SASSY OAKS were both tightened for racing room, checked and lost ground.  Rounding the turn out of the back straight VESTIARIUS shifted out which hampered the running of BIG MAN RUSTY.  SASSY OAKS which was trailing was checked as a consequence and lost ground.  Leaving the turn out of the back straight to approaching the turn into the front straight BIG MAN RUSTY and VESTIARIUS collided on a number of occasions resulting in both greyhounds to be checked and lose ground.  SASSY OAKS which was trailing was checked as a consequence and lost ground.
