Greyhounds Catch Lure

Thought this would be interesting to share. It's from a Tassie race where the greyhounds manage to catch the lure.

Greyhounds catch bunny - ninemsn Video

the lure broke down and it was a heat of the devonport cup my mates dog was just bout to hit the lead to not happy

wouldnt be a happy camper then. so wat happen wit that race ? i no its a no race but wats the go with the heats for the cup ?

I'm trying to see if there's any news about what will happen in the Stewards report (nothing on the main page of the Tassie racing website) but the website is being a prick and taking forever to load.

EDIT: Finally got it to work.

This event was declared a no race when the lure broke down approaching the home turn. All greyhounds were subject to a veterinary
examination. Stylish Bernie was found to have spike wounds to the left hind leg and stood down for 2 days. Chinatown Chief, no apparent
abnormalities. Punk Tastic, spike wounds to the left hind leg, stood down for 2 days. Admiral Bale, no apparent abnormalities. One
Wheel, grazes to the left hind leg, stood down for 2 days. Akka Boy, grazes to the left hind leg, stood down 2 days. Hellyeah Geoff, no
apparent abnormalities. Munich Monelli, no apparent abnormalities. **Due to the mechanical failure of the lure, all races were delayed
considerably with the start times for all races amended. After considering the No Race, Stewards abandoned Race 3 and acting in
accordance with GAR 57(2) a random draw was conducted of all greyhounds that competed in this event with Munich Monelli being drawn
as the greyhound to go through to the final.

there u go m8 munich monelli got random draw out even though it was no where near the two leaders thats racing though i suppose

thats hectic isnt it, thats good for munich monelli very lucky, who was ur mates dog ? so do u train greyhounds ? how many u got ?

no i dont train my mates dog was akka boy he has heaps he just retired big moose cause of injury i only have one at moment and it not real good lol

What do you guys think about those greyhound future chances? Do you think the guy on the news was right and they might not chase it now they know the lure isn't real?

Paulyt, are you kidding how many times do ya think it happened, squillions In NZ they catch it aftre eveyr race

paulyt one things is that they mighth look for it to pull up in the same place ... not good
