9 Dancing Bear (8) – Very slow to begin. Checked off the heels of another runner approaching the turn off the back straight. Finished the race a distant last. Underwent a post-race veterinary examination that revealed no apparent abnormalities. Stewards spoke to trainer Mr Matt Evans regarding the performance of Dancing Bear at box rise and throughout the entire race. Mr M Evans stated that the greyhound has limited ability and has begun poorly in both race starts to date. Mr Evans is hoping for improvement over the next few race starts or will give consideration to Dancing Bear’s racing future. However, Stewards acting under the provisions of GAR129(a) deemed the run as unsatisfactory and the greyhound must perform a satisfactory trial prior to future nomination.
