Stipendiary Stewards Report

Palmerston North Greyhound Racing Club

Manawatu Raceway ON TUESDAY 26 Mar 2019

Weather: Cloudy
Track: Good The track was presented in good order and the meeting proceeded smoothly but finished 17 minutes behind the advertised schedule due to the problem at the TAB.
Scales: Checked and correct
Health and Safety comment: Nil

Judicial report: Due to a technical problem with Raceday Control, the meeting was put back by one race for the entire program. The Vet was held up and arrived late and this resulted in some runners being kenneled prior to vetting and being examined and cleared to race as they were removed from the kennel to prepare to race.
