Champion Puppy now a heat and final series
The Champion Puppy three week series was to have kicked off on Wednesday 9th July at Angle Park however GRSA only received 7 nominations for the heats on Friday. With the conditions being heats, semi finals and then final it was decided that 7 runners were insufficient to run the heats. The series will now just be a heat and final series due to a tight schedule of racing in the next few months with the heats now being run where the semi finals would have been on Thursday night 17th July. The heats will be worth $4,415 and is for those greyhounds whelped on or after 1st July 2012. The $6,875 final will still be run on Thursday 24th July. Those greyhounds that nominated previously will get preference into the heats so long as they nominate however it would be GRSA’s intention to give as many greyhounds as possible a start.
Nominations for the heats close at 9.00am on Monday 14th July with GRSA.
