General: Stewards spoke to trainer Bruce Mackie, after identifying that all 3 of the greyhounds in his trainer ship had been clipped and had the tail hair removed. Mr Mackie entered a plea of guilty and was reprimanded in respect of a charge issued pursuant to GAR 156 i(ii) removing, or allowing to be removed, hair from a majority of a greyhound, or any part of the tail of a greyhound, and preventing the collection of a sample will amount to a breach of this rule unless a person has obtained the permission of the Stewards.
