Stipendiary Stewards Report


Auckland Greyhound Racing Club

Manukau Stadium ON FRIDAY 03 Mar 2006

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

Judicial report: Weather: Overcast Trainers are reminded that when a greyhound is scratched from a race meeting every effort should be made to present the registration papers and veterinary certificate for the greyhound to the Stewards for endorsement at the applicable race meeting.
**************
It was reported to the Club and Stewards that theft had occurred from several unlocked vehicles in the trainers' car park. The police were advised by trainer N.Udy.
**************
Race 7. Trainer L.P.Joyce (Spring Storm) was questioned by Stewards in relation to the substantial weight variation registered for this greyhound at this race meeting ( 35.2kg up from 32.6kg at it's previous race start on 09.02.06). Mr Joyce advised that as the new trainer for the greyhound he considered tonight's weight to be the optimum for the greyhound and he had wanted the greyhound to race at this weight level for some time. Under Rule 69.12 where a new trainer races a greyhound for the first time no penalty is applicable for any weight variance.
It was the intention of the Stewards to monitor the race performance of this greyhound very closely however the late scratching of the greyhound due to an injury detected during pre race preparation prevented this taking place on this occasion.
**************
The Officiating Veterinary Surgeon was C.Boyce from Central Districts.
