The Transportation of Greyhounds Policy and Hot Weather Policy have recently undergone their annual review. Information on proposed changes to these policies, as well as other issues which have been raised during the review, are as follows. Feedback on the proposed changes to these policies will need to be lodged with GRV by 5.00pm Thursday 18 October.
Greyhound Racing Victoria wishes to notify all participants that clause 26 of the GRV Hot Weather Policy has been amended.
In accordance with the GRV Hot Weather Policy, the Shepparton, Ballarat and Traralgon Meetings for Monday 21 November, have been marked as ‘Heat Affected’ due to the forecasted temperature of 37, 33 and 37 degrees respectively.
As you can see from this issue of Greyhound Monthly Victoria there’s a lot happening right now in the sport across the state. This year’s Australian Cup at The Meadows drew one of the biggest crowds ever seen there, to watch Dyna Double One become just the third greyhound in world history to win $1 million in prize money. And in April the heats start for both the Warrnambool Classic, which introduces a new generation of racers to the sport, and the Warrnambool Cup.
