NRs in 6 dog races seem to occur so often in the last 6 months.
Is it lack of dogs, costs incurred owning dogs, state of tracks, too much racing?
Maybe it's just me not noticing it in years gone by.

not enough dogs to sustain the amount of racing per week
should be maximum of 3 tracks per session, ideally 2 for morning & afternoons 12 races per card is plenty, ideally 8-10 put more hcaps on massive cull of sprints fri and/or sat night racing for all tracks promote the sport basics |

Thank you, everyone.
------- Two strange occurences today: T2 at Sunderland, I think, veering off right at the first bend (for seemingly no reason) and leaping over the fence into the countryside. Poor guy looked to have a long way to catch it. 100/1 Bf winner at Sheffield 95 £27.46 100 £71.25 110 £26.37 |
