Stipendiary Stewards Report
Christchurch Greyhound Racing Club
Addington Raceway ON TUESDAY 23 Sep 2008
Weather:Track: Good Good
Scales: Correct at all weights
Health and Safety comment: As detailed in this report the 295 m start for Races 1 and 2 was manually started as a result of the electronic sensor not activating the box lids. The lures were changed with the subsequent starts commencing electronically. This lure sustained a problem to its brushes and was changed after Race 9, reverting to the original lure. It operated satisfactorily until race 10 to 14 but again failed in Race 19 which was started manually. The club electrician is fitting a different sensor today in an attempt to isolate the cause of this problem.
Judicial report: Weather: Overcast RM McKENZIE was fined $50.00 for a breach of Rule 69.11 when THRILLING FURY, a starter in Race 7 weighed in 1.3kgs under his last race start weight.
JT McINERNEY was fined $50.00 for a breach of Rule 69.11 when BOTANY ROY, a starter in Race 19 weighed in 1.2kgs above his last race start weight.
A charge under Rules 64.1 and 88.1.a against trainer JT McINERNEY into the late scratching of JANDERRA APACHE, a starter in Race 2 was opened.. The trainer's representative on the day, J McINERNEY pleaded not guilty to the charge which was adjourned until 25 September 2008 pending further inquiries.
