GRNSW and GWIC are pleased to announce that a race meeting has been scheduled at Richmond on Sunday 25th August, 2019 and will be conducted under the auspices of Finish on Lure (FoL) racing. This is a first for the greyhound racing industry in NSW and is seen as a measure to support many participants and their greyhounds who have advocated this type of racing for some time.
Over the past six weeks complimentary trials have been conducted at the Richmond Race Club after race meetings on Wednesdays and Fridays and the feedback from all participants involved has been positive.
GRNSW and GWIC have been working closely together with the Richmond Club and industry participants to ensure that all operations of a race meeting for FoL racing have been covered and considered.
Nominations for the Richmond meeting will be conducted under normal GRNSW conditions. Further information for nomination closing times and race programming will be available within the next 48 hours via the thedogs website
Participants are advised that all nominations for the 25th August is for FoL racing only, however, GRNSW reserves the right to alter conditions if there are insufficient nominations to conduct a FoL race meeting.
GRNSW and GWIC plan to conduct further race meetings and also extend the FoL trial at other racing venues in coming weeks. FoL racing in NSW will be constantly reviewed to ensure best practice.
