Thanks for your comments Daryl. And I agree with all of them 100%.
It seems like complaints fall on deaf ears. I heard Mr Mestrov this morning on sky radio saying the changes were received incredibly well. I know a lot of people who voiced their disapproval.
The boxing procedure is stupid. The horses with jockeys are in the stalls for longer than a trainer is next to another puttingba dog in a box. Its all bullsh@t to be honest. More pressing though is giving country greyhounds a fair go & letting trainers place their dogs where they choose. In NSW there are around 350 active cases that the authorities know of. That equates to 0.004% of the population. I am happy with caution being applied but if one area gets 10 tracks to race on and another gets 3....then thats not real fair.
Anyway, lets hope theres a resolution sooner rather than later.
