Incident Reports
Race Number | Race Name | Incident Report |
---|---|---|
Race 1 | Anglo Upholsterers Ltd C4 - C4 - 305 | LITTLE BLACKSPOT was handy enough going to the first corner but was checked losing five lengths when HOMEBUSH JAG shifted in and he never recovered and finished in 2nd last place. |
Race 2 | Commercial Plumbing - Auckland C1 - C1 - 305 | HOMEBUSH BERRY was checked on the first corner and dropped back onto ANOTHER DRIZZLE who also lost ground. |
Race 3 | Bakery Stop - Silverstream C2 - C2 - 305 | One of the favourites CATCH A DREAM was slow to begin losing three lengths and she then ran wide over extra ground on the bend and finished in 5th place. |
Race 4 | Westview Aluminium - Upper Hutt C1 - C1 - 520 | NIGEL THE LEGIN went up with the box lids and lost three lengths. WALTZING FIREFLY was unable to keep up with the early pace and dropped back to be several lengths last but she did make up ground and finished in 2nd last place. |
Race 5 | B & P Engineering - Upper Hutt C1 - C1 - 305 | TONY'S PEDRO was away well from the start to be in 2nd place on the first corner but then ran very wide on the bend and into the straight and faded to finish in 2nd last place. |
Race 6 | Thorntons Auctions - Penrose C1/2 - C1/2 - 520 | JAYDEN'S COURAGE began well to be near the lead around the first bend but began to drift down the back straight and dropped out to finish four lengths last. It was observed that the dogs recent racing had been over sprint distances and fitness may have been the reason for the poor run. |
