What a Joke of a Track Towcestor Is

everything else there is good but the track is bad look how big towcester is they could have easy done 500 metres no wonder sis put money in

Joke of a track or not - and I disagree with that statement - Fairest Royal in the last, is the bet of the night - anywhere.

Not taking a penny on betfair at Towcester races.

£21 in total in the 21.29.

I never saw a penny last night.

Would rather have a bet at Kinsley that Towcestor it's than bad

Crayford makes a fair race seem a distance memory compared with the big T

prob with bubbly is if dog on rail in front of it it takes 1/2 hour  to manouvre its way past it ran into puma a couple of times last night ,specsavers dog imo

Year agree 100 per cent the dog

But I think the main problem with Towcestor is the dogs just seem to dive into the rails kamikasie style

Only watched last week Ravage deffo not my cup of tea tbh ,What MDM says spot on they had the room ,I was expecting a new White city type track ,not somewhere you could drive an artic round in circles,lookin at Don plans the track looks like it
would be the buisness ,sadly in reality we may never see it

think they wanted another portman park for s.i.s

u aint wrong mick

Who builds a track with no straights ffs

Trials cancelled today - no vet.  Due to be over 100 dogs trialling.

oh dear

Blimey, that is beyond comprehension.

good organisation

grade one track

The hundred seats in the restaurant will be ok

that is very poor

once again .... ? we are doomed Mannering .... doomed I say

Unbelievable.

who will be the first trainer there to leave

in january and february there will be more dogs there than people.a very cold place to go in winter,perhaps they should change to husky racing.

Possibly, slightly wider open to the elements than other tracks but don't see why it should be colder in Towcester than anywhere else, unless it's blowing a gale?

towcester is very cold in summer

woody knows it all beebs

TR told me when him and woody went dogging at Towcestor both of had to wear an extra layer of protection

I hope he meant gloves

Surely cant be any colder than further north Manchester on a wet and windy day?

Waiting on one dog in particular getting fit and racing at Towcester.  This one is as good a bend runner as there is around at present and I'm convinced the track will fir like a glove.  Will advise as and when..

only £1 matched in the 8.42 and £44 in the 8.49, not really worth put it on here

Will be ok once we have full streaming of the bags racing as rumoured

Just hope it happens

Thats a fair comment everton, does anyone know what the attendances have been like over the xmas period?

2500 there last Saturday they just said on RPGTV

over xmas every track was packed lets see in february

cannot be a joke of a track

skybet have them at 5/2 favourite to win the bags track championship 2015 .......

Practically ever race won by the dog that led early

O dear dig the track up and start again guv

Watched it on SIS last night, they have not taken a bit of notice about the camera angles and yet again came away dizzy. As for the racing, an odds on dog in 2 that would have won by 6 at Hove got beat as it couldn't pass on the giant circle of a joke track design. Heard that one top name trainer already wants to jack and unfortunately can't see it being here next Christmas if that don't alter the configuration. What an opportunity missed to make it world class, now it is a giant flying saucer that no dog man wants to take seriously!

i also heard a trainer not happy with track

new track = great
sounds like everyone delighted with the restaurant etc

unfortunately the mistakes they've made on the racing side ie track design, 8 dogs, %s on 1st night, camera angles, trials cancelled etc
making nearly every mistake going

this will never be a track for me

I heard I heard bollox name the trainer than????

Have moved one of my dogs from there already,variety of reasons tbh,cant get a trial never mind a run,no streaming,cant get recordings from the track (when you do see a race the camera angles are awful) plus hes a slow starting wide that may even struggle to grade on when they put the eclipse 3rd in A3

Absolutely love the place,facilities and betting wise (if you can win at rommers you can win here) but just doesnt suit me personally as a long distance graded owner there,how can you not get recordings of your own dogs races without going through s.i.s or the hassle of setting up your own feed?

PS SPOT ON
THERE GOING TO BE EDGE THERE
FRONT RUNNING RAILS TYPES
CANT SEE WHY PUNTERS BE CRYING ABOUT THE PLACE
OWNERS DIFFENT MATTER

who's crying riddler

how many people are actually betting there regularly other than at track?
liquidity is non existant on here
can you get a bet on with high st books?

I SAID PUNTERS ON HERE
ARE YOU ONE OF THEM ?

haven't had 1 bet there yet

don't think many punters on here could give 2 fcks about betting there tbh

Televised opens are the only times ive had a proper go there,have been one other time over xmas but just played the tote all night for fun,havent had a bet there since and doubt i will till its televised again or streamed somewhere tbh.

Them thursday night opens may as well have been run on the moon for betting purposes which is a shame when you consider the sums that were bet on the henlow guff the same night.

TV is king nowadays
people dont bring their armchair to the track

when asked to buy a dog at the track the trainer said 5grand upwards .  i see dogs who ran in a 10,000 pound final the other week were running for 145 pound last saturday night i could buy a dog for 500pound and run it around crayford for that prize money

See practically every race again on thurs was won with a dog that led early

think portman park have a better track then towcester

a few on here would be negative even in a positive situation..

but have agree even with the usual suspects in this instance so far its been a pathetic start, no streaming or vids wtf? no betting, dogs not getting runs... and the track itself yawn yawn yawn!!!

only need to be a "5 second greyhound punter" real talent and vision not required

"5 second greyhound punter"


surely patrick loves the place then

after his first night high £ am sure novelty is wearing off tho

the place has gone from hero to zero in a month..

patrick is v fickle...often a trait seen in a lot of raving puffs

lol blimey wonders you clearly mean business tonight haha

straight to the point!

I don't mess about

they could easy change track but i think S.i.S would not be pleased

Ive had it bang off there...just wish we could get more from the place for betting purposes!

its not an iq contest lads,its about £ notes

Yer I heard pat had £10K on target Harris to win a marathon at Towcestor last week

He got the 20-1 at the track but knew the other five dogs would keep running up each other arses at the bends

yes ravage,i did the bet after the race,always the best way imo

if kempton built a greyhound track like white city or wembley it would be packed there easy to get there trains nearby build it and they will come

You ever sat on that train to kempton
It's ****! Takes 50 min when it should take about 20 min left good amount coke  bottles full of piss
After day at kempton on that slow moving thing

think i go by car 30 minutes

Been away for a month, and interested by the comments made, as this new venture in my opinion will make or break the greyhound industry. I watched the big sky meeting and the one thing that occurred to me, was the width of the track. As the track was built for 8 dog racing, the 6 dog races did not suit the dogs who ran wide, as they had to cover more ground than normal.

Becca, surely only wide runners would use the full width of the track?

How dya spell it anyway? Always thought it was Towcester

Correct woodman, hence the bias towards railers. Maybe they should have an Olympic style start with a staggered start for all lanes!!
