FFS you are as bad as @Yankiwi !! I think this is least of Greyhound Racing problems not that it's actually a problem. The Thoroughbred online database is exactly the same. They keep the information online for breeding and performance tracking purposes. For example I know of a horse that went to the knackers yard about 38 years ago. Probably fed a few Greyhounds. The NZTR database has it as being 47 years old. Tracking horses from the service to the grave is a complete and utter waste of time. Just as it is for Greyhounds done to appease a bunch of woke muppets who say they actually care. Which I doubt they do care. Instead of using a slug gun to shoot yourselves in the feet why not be done with it and use an elephant gun!! -
When I first got involved with training, breeding, rearing, and racing Greyhounds the year was 1985, there was 1 suit along with one secretary to run the entire Greyhound industry. No Chairman, no board of Directors, no racing Manager, and no CEO. Full tote racing had been in existence about 7/8 yrs and there was about 100 meetings a year. Everything was done efficiently with very few problems. When I finished in 2017 the NZGRA had grown to 17 full time suits. CEO, Phil Holden. Head of Racing, Greg Kerr. Head of Welfare, Mairi Stewart. Head of Finance and Administration. Bridget Ng~Wai Head of Marketing and Communications, Katherine O'Connor. Special Projects, Stuart Cashen.tant Assistant Racing Manager, Roger Moore Racing Administrator Officer, Matt Claridge Registrar and Administration Officer, Jo Finlay Office Manager/Executive to CEO Board Chairman, Craig Rendle Directors, Mauro Barsi Graeme Calverly David Emerson Sean Hannan Dave MacAuley Trevor Taylor All members of the board are paid members with expenses. The above list was August 2017, goodness knows what it is today. Now with all that man women power on the payroll, we now find their data base for tracking dogs are full of 30 year plus old dogs that have long dropped of the perch. F#ken brilliant. -

County Meath natives Jordan Kidd and Tara Carroll were announced on Sunday as the latest recipients of scholarships from the Gerry Dilger Equine Scholarship Foundation, awarded in the memory of Irish pinhooker and successful breeder, Gerry Dilger. The scholarships are open to Irish citizens, with the recipients earning a place on the Irish National Stud programme which Dilger himself completed. It includes fully paid tuition, room and board at the famed Kildare nursery. “Jordan impressed the board with his passion and enthusiasm as he seeks to obtain bloodstock experience having worked primarily on the racing side of the business,” read a statement from the Gerry Dilger Equine Scholarship Foundation. “As a young amateur jockey he has ridden winners for Gavin Cromwell and John McDonnell and has also worked for Pat Martin and Noel Meade. Jordan looks forward to increasing his knowledge of breeding at the Irish National Stud.” The statement continued, “Tara graduated from University College Dublin with a degree in Agricultural Science – Equine and has already for such a young person, immersed herself in bloodstock internationally. She has competed successfully in Eventing in Ireland and enjoyed roles at trainers in Chantilly with Tim Donworth and Francis-Henri Graffard, Lexington with Andrew McKeever and in County Meath with Sheila Lavery. “On the breeding side Tara has worked at Springhouse Farm in Lexington and gained invaluable sales experience with many consignors and bloodstock agents at Tattersalls, Goffs, Fasig Tipton Saratoga and Keeneland. Tara's impressive resume also includes breeding her own mares and raising young horses.” The post Recipients of Scholarships Awarded in Memory of Gerry Dilger Announced appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
