Stipendiary Stewards Report
Palmerston North Greyhound Racing Club
Manawatu Raceway ON MONDAY 08 Feb 2010
Weather: FineTrack: Good
Scales: Checked and Correct
Health and Safety comment: Nil
Judicial report: Race one was started over two minutes later than the advertized time due to the grooming machinary still being used on the track as the runners were attempting to make their way to the start. The Stewards cancelled stirrups for the remainder of the day and requested that the Club address the matter of grooming and watering the track during meetings as the present situation is unacceptable and is impacting on the start times for races and has resulted in some stirrups at recent meetings being abandoned.
