They denied the track was dug up did they not.......
from Greyhound Star The first round of the Blue Riband took place this afternoon at Hall Green, shocking weather conditions and newly laid sand meant the track was going to be extremely slow.Estimates start at -60 and it seemed to get progressively slower as the sleet fell, we will have to check the going reports but -100 is going to be a close prediction for the later races races. They denied any bias did they not......... Heat 5 and the weather just did not let up, the monster that is Jaytee Pedro brushed aside a slow break to emerge unscathed off the second bend, he unleashed unreal backstraight pace to storm away from his field for a mightily impressive win in 29.42. It should be noted too that he ran virtually on the hair rail all the way up the home straight...much the slowest part of the track. |

The track wasn't dug up and no new sand was laid
Do you believe everything you read in the press you faceless dickhead As for the bias it's down to opinion, you really are the biggest idiot I have ever had the misfortune to come across |

i believe if the greyhound star has printed the wrong information then the hg management need to have a word in the right ears because i dont think the ppl at the star realise there are idiots out there i.e the dark side who live and breathe each day for a negative comment about hall green then jumpon there computer with a wooden spoon ready to stir then sit on the rocking chair for the rest of the day saying the racing managers name again while putting pins in a voodoo doll

Greyhound Trainer Mr A Pearson was found in breach of rules 152 (i) and (ii), 174 (i)(a) and 217 of the GBGB rules of racing, in that a pre-trial urine sample taken from the greyhound STOMPY PHIL at Kinsley Stadium on 22 October 2011 was analysed by LGC Ltd as containing the presence of morphine *Kinsley Stadium – STOMPY PHIL – Greyhound Trainer Mr A Pearson Mr Pearson apologised for his non-attendance. Mr John Curran, Authorised Representative Kinsley Stadium, apologised for his non-attendance. The racing manager Mr A Mascarenhas also apologised for his non-attendance. 5 The greyhound STOMPY PHIL was having a requalification trial after being lame. In the opinion of Mr A Mascarenhas, the time of 28.90 was in line with what would have been expected The Committee noted the ‘Statement of Opinion’ from the Drug and Medication Advisory Panel, in which morphine was noted as being a Class A drug having effects in pain control and central nervous system action. It does not have a veterinary marketing authorisation for use in dogs but can be prescribed by veterinary surgeons under the prescribing cascade. The Disciplinary Committee heard that Mr Pearson was at a loss to explain how the positive sample had arisen. The dog was not on medication at the time of the positive sample and was not kennelled with another greyhound that was receiving medication. Mr Pearson said he had always fed stained meat and brown bread to greyhounds in his care as part of their diet, but had been assured by the bread supplier that the bread did not contain poppy seeds. Mr Pearson suggested a possible explanation that some of the meat could have been contaminated, but produced no evidence to support this supposition. Mr Pearson stated that he had been treating STOMPY PHIL for a wrist injury five weeks prior to the trial with rubbing oils and liniments. The Committee noted that the injury had subsequently caused the greyhound to be retired after his first race back after the trial in question. Mr Pearson stated in his written evidence that, since being notified of the positive sample, he had stopped feeding stained meat and brown bread to the greyhounds in his care, and also now uses named feed that has ingredients printed on the bag. The Disciplinary Committee pointed out that the GBGB Rules of Racing impose strict liability on the Trainer. Having considered the circumstances of the case and the presence of a banned Class A drug in the dog's urine for which no explanation could be produced, the Committee ordered that Mr Pearson be severely reprimanded and fined the sum of £600. In fixing the penalty the Committee took into account the following mitigating factors: i. that Mr Pearson had taken prompt action to change his greyhound feeding regime in case this was a cause of contamination; ii. that there had been no previous breaches recorded against him; and iii. a letter of support provided by Mr John Curran, Authorised Representative of Kinsley Stadium. The Disciplinary Committee recorded that under the new Penalty Guidelines the severe reprimand should be treated as being of equal importance to the fine, and that any further breaches may result in a more severe penalty, which could include the loss of Mr Pearson’s licence. |

A question for Hall Green regulars. Is it me are the 480m traps not level to the ground on the inside? Have watched a couple of meetings in the shops lately and the traps seem to be slightly in the air on the inside. There definitely is a gap between the traps and the sand in traps 1 & 2 levelling off by 5 & 6. Not saying it has any effect on results, but just looks strange to me. Do I need to go to Specsavers?

By:
If it wasn't so sad, it would be hilarious - you really could not make it up.
The move to Monmore can't me soon enough for me, nor I'm sure for my fellow owners, the trainer and all associated with the kennel. |

Just remembered - wasn't the reason for stopping the graded handicap hurdles races the unreliability of the 480 handicap boxes, after a few void races?

Dave
What do you suggest they do then? If it is not certain that the traps can be fixed before Friday night (the pole holding the traps collapsed apparently and needs to be concreted back in) What do you suggest, isnt handicaps better than cancelling the meeting? The handicap traps arent ideal but it has to be better than nothing hasnt it? |
|
By:
Using the handicap traps is probably the best of a poor set of options, I'd agree - but isn't this a symptom of a far more fundamental problem with a lack of care, attention and, I guess most importantly, investment going back years rather than weeks or months?
The blame can't be laid totally at the door of the current management team who are operating under severe constraints, but IMO Hall Green had, and probably still has, the potential to be a fantastic venue for greyhound racing. Unfortunately, all the signs are that it isn't going to happen. I doubt that there will be many sadder than I about this situation - I really do wish that the track could be put into a position to thrive. |
