Sunday afternoon opens at Sheffield will become the new norm from January.

There will be new routines for many tracks starting in in the new year and the Sheffield racing office are among those who are having to readjust their thinking

Racing Manager Andrew Mascarenhas said: “We are racing Tuesday and Thursday morning, Friday and Saturday evening, the latter being a non-media meeting, and Sunday afternoon.

“To be honest, the four days in a row, Thursday to Sunday, isn’t ideal, particularly since the introduction of the four day rule.

“We are planning open races for every Sunday afternoon from January 7 onwards. The first meeting will include the start of a dual distance competition and we are advertising for ten opens in total.

“Overall, the open race entries haven’t been very good recently, despite the fact that we pay more prize money than most. I have no idea why.

“On the plus side, the restaurant is sold out until the New Year and we are even taking bookings for the first Sunday meetings.”

– The recent charity meeting in aid of Sheffield Retired Greyhounds raised just short of £9,000.

Andrew said: “It was a good effort and will go to a great cause. I gather they are around the ‘90 rehomed’ mark for the year which is pretty good in challenging times.”

– Handicap racing has been temporarily suspended at the track following a recent void race.

Andrew said: “The handicap traps are being refurbished and fitted with new springs. It will probably be next weekend at the earliest before we are ready to use them again.”

WINTER BOOST AS GBGB ANNOUNCES OWNERS’ BONUS SERIES

Graded racing is set for a boost in December as GBGB today confirmed that each track will be asked to stage an Owners’ Bonus Winter series for greyhounds on their graded strength.

The “Owners’ Bonus Series” races, which have been developed by the GBGB Racing Committee, will be funded from money secured by the committee to support racing at graded level. This will enable tracks to each stage gala meetings across 24 graded races, aimed to benefit as many owners and trainers as possible.

Each event will feature:

Extra prize money of £50 to the winner, and £10 extra to also rans, in addition to the track’s existing prize money for that grade over 24 races.

A trophy will be provided for each of the races for the connections of the winning greyhound.
The grades of each event will be determined by the track’s Racing Office depending on dog strength to ensure competitive racing, and to cover as many grades as possible. These races cannot be Opens or Inter Track races. Where greyhounds owned by Racecourse Executives, Track Owners, Senior Management and/or their spouses, partners or children at the same track are taking part in the enhanced prize money races, they will forfeit the additional prize money.

Each Owners’ Bonus Series event will be held at customer-facing meetings on evenings or weekends where possible to maximise opportunities for owners to attend.

Scott Harvey, Racing Operations Executive at GBGB, said:

“This additional funding towards graded racing will help provide a highlight at each track during the festive period. We’ve had a busy schedule of open race competitions already this year and this is a good opportunity to support and reward racing at a more local level. The Owners’ Bonus Series brings people together and puts graded racing in the spotlight.”
