I would like to apologize to all for ' cracking ' under the pressure of being Santa's pick for that race.
It's an honour bestowed upon the strong and bold.
Of which I failed.
 
I also want to apologies for ruining greyhound racing for the future.
 
Not only have we just lost 30% of our viewers.  But stakes are now to be cut back to pay for all law suits and councillor services required for 44.6% of viewers on Xmas eve.
 
I think now turning the tv off and listening to trevs calls are sounding more appealing by the day.
 
Merry Christmas and happy new year to all.

Nice to see James and Alysha have a good day at wanganui with Davey Boys dogs.
Well done.

as ive said before the dress code is a joke and has gone way past the relms of sensible.it appears that there are sox checks taking place randomly.maybe the stipes need to take the sniff test as well........also a handler was spoken to today because his BLACK cap had a tiny bit of writing on it.........collars on womens shirts that aren't up to standard,I thought a collar was a collarand there are different SIZE COLLARS........soon we will be standing to attention in the kennel block before the meeting for an inspection.....and here was me thinking this industry was about the greyhounds and punting........and theres the stupid tie thing at chch.......maybe aron X could start up a cause for under privileged and downtrodden greyhound folk

I was spoken to regarding this in race 10 by the starter and reminded to be a bit quicker next time. 
I'm trying to get my dog to set nicely to give them the best opportunity possible to earn a stake for my kennels. (Not something I have been told to do by my employer )
I will make sure I am quicker to box, for your satisfaction whoknows. 
It's something I don't purposely do, trying to give myself an advantage. But to have my dog set and ready to jump when the lids open. 
 
Feel free to give me any pointers after watching my next few performances

Just for arguments sake. We will only use winners getting swab bed not random ones or performance related.

If they swab 7 winners a meeting.
12 races. 58 % of the winners are swabbed

4 wins out of 7 is 57% ratio. Which I think is fair.

I don't see them targeting you Gary or Wendy. Just the way it is.

Maybe if the little girl stopped winning then you won't be swabbed.

She's doing great. So just enjoy the success and don't worry bout the little things.

What else would you like in the magazine MM
I think we need more articles like back when the magazine was the size of an a4 sheet of paper and there were always write ups.

Seems the only write ups with trainer comments after feature races are on our website.

I think it's .06 per length

Be
What happens when a trainer takes 8 dogs to the races and has a shocking day. All 8 unplaced.

How does that trainer then payout his owners the petrol vouchers when he is restricted on the first 5.?

I credit vouchers as a payment from the owner. So it comes off their bill.

I've only the one dog.
but what happens if I 8 and have the shocker?

Divide the vouchers amongst the owners. ?

Remember this initiative is for the owners.

why should some miss out ?

They have their place. But better thinking towards their use and distribution is needed in my opinion.

why dont you give the petrol vouchers to nz bred dogs only lets face it  if you can afford to send a dog to nz you wouldnt be worried about pv's that should save a fair bit

Shaky,  The trainers that come on here that obviously do not care about their dogs welfare because they do not rush off to a hose immediately after a race include your boss who didn't appear to be worrying about the same  when Brando won the collar.

But in the heats they aren't on the dias for 15 minutes with the big presentation.

Of course they needed it.

Officials were present for the hose down so no integrity issue there.
