Rule 23 Greyhound - age calculation, minimum age to run, Puppy definition
The age of a Greyhound shall be reckoned as beginning on the first Day of the Month in which it is whelped. A Greyhound under the age of 15 Months shall not run in any Race or Initial Trial; (e.g. a January whelp not before 1st April the following year). A Greyhound shall also be termed a Puppy for a period of 24 Months from and including the Month of whelping; (e.g. a January whelp until the end of December the following year). |

Puppy Stayers are quite hard to find. Harlow and Romford do them but they are both less than 600m. Monmore had one last Sat night.

Don't think so particularly. I think we entered one at Oxford a few months ago and it didn't fill. You are almost as well off going in a maiden stayers. After all if a dog hasn't won an open by the time it's say, 2 and a half, it's not that great.

True, often these maidens are filled with desperate connections trying to get a win. We stole a 545 maiden at Mildenhall once, with a fairly experienced ** who needed that particular c and d, against some pups 'they' thought may need the trip. 5l and many of Bunny's quids later...
I would just say, avolid Farloe Rocket if you can! GL |
