Make all c1 sprint tier races. $500 and put that money into middle distance and distance racing. So bored of watching meeting after meeting fill of c1 sprints. If they are no longer viable, people will look to breed and rear stronger dogs. Than over a ten year period, start getting rid of the 300 m distances altogether and make 400 minimum.
Just trying to breed for stronger dogs should help increase the numbers over middle distance and the flow on affects would also mean more distance dogs aswell
let's be honest, ring the bell has shown us just how weak our distance racing is over here right now and I personally feel as though that the number of dogs being breed and only racing in c1 sprints is apart of the problem.
