Good Friday form now out for Eggstravaganza

Draw/news is now available for Good Friday's March 29 Egg finals at Monmore via bagsracing.com ;

full form http://bagsracing.com/assets/29-march-advance.pdf

THERE has never been a greyhound meeting like the one that will take place at Monmore on Good Friday, March 29. A day when there is no UK horseracing is being termed the Easter Eggstravaganza, with the action officially described as “groundbreaking”.

There will be a record 16 finals on the lunchtime/after noon card with the current 16 Bags tracks each supplying a team of six winners from local heats, angling for a share of the total prize fund of £125,000. It is thought no single meeting has ever seen representatives from so many different tracks.

Designed to give every Bags track a shot at glory, each Good Friday race, over a variety of distances, carries £2,000 prize-money, half of that for the winner.

The team element gives five points for a win, three for the runner-up and one for third place. The top points total will give the winning track £6,000, to be shared by the trainers, with another £10,000 to be paid out in additional prizemoney at the track.

Second prize is £3,000, with £6,000 in track prize-money, while the team taking third receives £1,000 and £4,000 in prize-money for their track.

To determine the qualifiers, local heats have been be staged at each Bags track in a 15-day non-stop spell from March 2-16.

Each track’s six qualifiers have entered a GBGB-supervised draw for appropriate separate races. Greyhounds must have competed in a minimum of five graded races at their home track to be eligible to take part, one of which must have been run at a Bags meeting.

New is a dispensation for runners to be allowed one open-race win, intended to open the door for maiden race winners, although the concession applies to any category of open.

Scott Harvey, Bags’ race programme controller, said: “We’ve listened to track managements, owners and trainers following the hugely popular Track Championship and have come up with a competition to keep team spirit and camaraderie flowing.

“The Easter Eggstravaganza now gives smaller tracks who struggled at the group stage of the Championship a chance for their teams to shine and win big on the day.

“And whereas the Easter Bunny [which it replaces] had no overall winner, and no team element, just a series of finals, the new format transforms the event and hopefully should generate plenty of interest on and off the track during the month of March.”

Last year’s Easter Bunny saw winners from Hove (three), Oxford (two), Poole, Sheffield, Sunderland and Yarmouth on finals day; this clearly promises to be even more inclusive.

Travel allowance of £1,000 will be paid to each team making its way to Monmore.

A key pay-off for all owners is the prize-money boost for the top three teams. For example, Newcastle, celebrating its success in the recent Bags Track Championship, over a two-week period across some 100 races, increased win money by £25, and each runner payment by £15. “That way everyone gets a look-in,” said boss Ian Walton.
