Havnt seen the footage but condifent most of the dogs willl be ok, in one ear out the other All dogs r different. Many dogs who say hit running rail heavily will remember it some never wanting to go past that point again on that track. They r all different.

Yeah that's why I was thinking, I was sure they caught it at the end and the of a race but I normally stop paying attention once they hit the line, especially if the dog I've backed hasn't won lol. I wonder where the newscaster got his info from to make him say that.

Paulyt NZ is the only place they catch it in Australasia to my knowledge but dont take notice of me on this one Someone mentioned Qld? They trialled it in NSW, Dapto???? but I think it did not proceed Someone on here will no where they do and where they dont.

I'm sure I've seen them catch it at the end of a race before. Maybe it was greyhounds from NZ or Queensland.

Just found this during a search to see where they do it.

Brisbane Greyhound Racing Club and Greyhounds Queensland are delighted to be the first in Australia to introduce the “finish on” lure after a trial of the system, which has been running at Albion Park since September, was favourably received by all concerned and results were deemed successful.

Final phase testing involving full field trials will be run at Albion Park on December 15th.
