Yankiwi Posted May 3 Author Share Posted May 3 (edited) It should have been declared a no-race. However, that would have been inconvenient, as it was a heat race for the Kingston Cup. The rule - 2) Following the running of an Event, the Stewards may permit a variance to the distance required by subrule (1) of this rule that occurred during an Event if satisfied that as a consequence of the variance no greyhound was advantaged or disadvantaged so as to affect the outcome of the Event The Stewards ruling - The lure was observed to be close to the leading runner leaving the home straight with a lap to run but no runner was substantially inconvenienced. Lure driver M Gallagher was spoken to in regards to this and reminded of his obligations. Convenienced or inconvenienced are not determining factors. Was any dog advantaged or disadvantaged because of the event, 100% yes. Quirk should be stood down immediately pending retraining and numerous satisfactory trials.

Most if not all dogs thought the lure was slowing down, as it does just about every time they run in a race, as it was entering the catching area. Sorry Quirk, dogs don't count the number of laps.

Yankiwi Posted May 3 Author Share Posted May 3 With one lap to go - Same race, after the winning post & entering the slow-down/catching area. The decision to allow the race by the Steward was criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yankiwi Posted May 12 Author Share Posted May 12 (edited) https://www.grnz.co.nz/Files/Animal Health Welfare Committee minutes/00 2024 02 21 AHWC Minutes - Draft (2).pdf From the minutes of the AHWC's 20 February meeting. Manukau's previous 8 race meetings (prior to the meeting) injury rates (1 Jan to 18 Feb). So GRNZ's Chief Executive believes that a major injury rate of 19 dogs per thousand (KPI target is 6 per thousand) is acceptable? We now have two of GRNZ top brass that should be stood down from their duties due to incompetence within GRNZ. MD & ER. Who on the AHWC would like to be next to be exposed for what they are doing to the future of greyhound racing? Edited May 12 by Yankiwi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankiwi Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 GRNZ's media release. https://www.grnz.co.nz/News/3200/GRNZ-Media-Release-Greyhound-Racing-is-important-to-New-Zealand-and-deserves-support So Mr. Rennell, if GRNZ has full transparency as you claim, just where has GRNZ released their 2nd quarter (Nov - Jan) and 3rd quarter (Feb - Apr) injury data?

GRNZ will then "determines otherwise" for either their "preferred trainers" or more likely in all cases now that I've brought this prediction to the forefront and have the trainers issued with a mere warning. Nearly a 3-month investigation thus far. Animal welfare concern (by the RIB's own admission) involved so was it put on the back burner? https://racingintegrityboard.org.nz/racing-in-breach-of-the-vaccination-rule/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankiwi Posted May 31 Author Share Posted May 31 Yet another you can't make this shit up moment. There was a delay to the payment of dividends for this race due to a photo finish malfunction in determining the third and fourth placings. Due to the malfunction the judge declared a dead heat for third placing based on the Stewards video footage and his own observations. Every part visible of the #4 is ahead of the #8. If it was even close to a dead heat, you'd be able to see the #4's ears in the image. That judge needs to be put before a jury! On top of that, it was race fixing in one of the most important heat races of the year! Greyhound racing is truly an industry without integrity.

But you can't say that with 100% certainty as the picture is the result of a photo finish malfunction. You don't even know if the dashed line is in the right place and it obviously didn't capture completely either dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankiwi Posted May 31 Author Share Posted May 31 Race Fixing. Sally Hadn't raced since 22 Dec 23 Trialed 23 Apr Nominated for this race (had to be healthy then right?) Needed to be scratched the day prior to race day with a 5-day injury. Bernie Hadn't raced since 16 Apr Nominated for this race (had to be healthy then right?)

Yankiwi Posted May 31 Author Share Posted May 31 12 minutes ago, Chief Stipe said: Um...Clue? Is this YKGC#477? Call it what you like. I suggest Sally & Bernie were nominated for the race with the trainer having no intentions of having those two actually starting the race. Similar things happen at just about every race meeting in the CD. Always the same kennel doing that race fixing. The top 4 finishers receive nearly all the stake money from the race. That's why the kennel only started four of their six entrants. Race fixing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
