all positive but we been here before and a few on here called it right with the old towcester could see that coming a long way out.now this time you have a man who been in the game a while but with me either henlow or towcester will have to close down the line the only way towcester will survive is for other projects to work to subsidise the greyhound side the main way for me would be a music festival with top bans around the world but that would have to be 3 or 4 day festivals but the main problem with towcester and will always be is its in the middle of nowhere now the only way to get people to towcester is like dubai and that cost billions plus no sea or man-made beaches at towcester

Last week 1500 dogs mooted doc thst he can lay claim to. With henlows busy schedule an open race night at towcester he would need similar amount of meetings towcester to let all dogs get a run. From listening to todays interview think gona av couple meetings to start. So no need for all that racing strength. Maybe some disappointed trainers. I do hope it works for him. I,m hopeful not confident.

Instead of starting at 8am maybe Henlow can squeeze a few more in by starting at 6am.

I went to Towcester for the 2018 derby, car to Glasgow airport, plane to Luton, taxi to Northamton, then taxi to the track, pretty grim, but the track,restaurant and viewing was exceptional, loved it. cheers.

He has signed a deal with SiS. My op is that henlow will shut in the next couple of years. All finances will go in to towcester.

Sad to see so many negative comments surrounding it

if his aspirations for greyhound racing don't come off he is laughing all the way to the bank
in my eyes he cannot lose one shrewd cookie I wish him well but only on the hound side |

If the expensive reconstruction of the running surface at Towcester, and also the much needed track alignment improvement, isn't a success, then it will signal the rapid terminal decay of this sport imo.
