so true,how can you be sacked for looking after the welfare of your dogs ,its hills that are not concerned for the dogs welfare ,they just want 6 runners a race so its harder to predict

I believe Carly said the vet is no better qualified to assess ground than Carly herself is.
When you think about it she is right. Vets are trained to administer care to animals, not to assess the suitability of a track. Does the doctor conduct pitch inspections at football matches ? |

A few years ago when i was a kennel hand i was walking around a frozen ngrc track with the trainer during an inspection .There was no possibility of racing going ahead.The vet was inspecting the track and he whispered to my trainer "what do you think" .Trainer replies "unraceable".The vet ambles away a few paces,turns to the RM and calls out "its unraceable".Meeting abandoned.

what a shame the rest of the track trainers didnt stand together. not a lot the track could do if they all withdrew, just seems
strange all the other trainers must have been happy with the ground.?? i wonder if there were any more injurys that night. shame 4 staff layed off.  |

Poor jimmys knackered now
I think his kennels are north of Newcastle So the only local tracks that you can train greyhounds and attempt I make some type of living is Newcastle and Sunderland Both owned by hills so no chance of getting in at Sunderland He got sick of open racing about 3 or 4 years ago and stopped going to placed like sheff and notts stating a1 prize money at Newcastle was nearly as good Ok he got a better racing strength now than then But I gues he will get sick if all the travelling etc |
