Boxing Day Greyhound Racing Wrap.

By Hamish

Boxing Day 2009 was a great day’s great day’s racing with big racing happening on the country circuit in Sale and many semi–finals of the Silver Chief happening at The Meadows.

Mantra Lad won the Sale Cup and Zenith, Kilrush, Rev Limiter and Sheoak Ian all won their heats of the Silver Chief at The Meadows. Sheoak Ian is a special story. As the winner of the Great Chase, for every race that Sheoak Ian wins, Greyhound Racing Victoria will donate the equivalent of 10% of its prize money to Scope Victoria. If he can get through the final of the Silver Chief next week, this could be a substantial chunk of change.

Also, imagine how exciting these results are for the owners of these dogs. Greyhound owners are every day people like you and me. They start out wanting to experience the excitement of ownership, stay involved, and get lucky when they find a dog that can take them to that next level.

This is not beyond you. Greyhound ownership is extremely affordable, especially when you consider the option of greyhound syndication. If you buy a share in a greyhound syndicate, then you experience the full benefit of greyhound ownership for a fraction of the cost. Many of the greyhounds running at Sale or The Meadows last nigh would have been greyhounds owned in syndication- why can’t you be one of the owners next time they run around?
