Stipendiary Stewards Report


Christchurch Greyhound Racing Club

Addington Raceway ON WEDNESDAY 07 Nov 2012

Weather: Fine
Track: Good
Scales: Correct at all weights
Health and Safety comment:

Judicial report: Bob Cairns the handler of KING OF CLUBS contacted Stewards in relation to the weight recorded for this dog in his Cup heat. He indicated that he didn't hear the weight during the kennelling process so didn't ask for a reweigh and was confused when the Stewards questioned him about the increase. The dog was reweighed at Shirley Vets on Friday and it became obvious that the weight recorded on the night was incorrect. This weight has now been deleted from the dog's record. Handlers are reminded to be vigilant at the weighing stage of kennelling. WALK DA TORQUE was presented to the Vets on Tuesday to be rechecked under Rule 82.5 but was found to still have soreness to his wrist. The dog was then withdrawn from tonight's event.
