3 BARTOLO APPOINTED TO GRV BOARD One of Victoria’s most respected greyhound breeders, trainers and owners, Ray Bartolo, has been appointed to the board of GRV. Minister for Racing, Martin Pakula congratulated Mr Bartolo, a 30-year veteran of the industry, on his appointment. Mr Bartolo has held positions on the animal welfare committees of Greyhound Clubs Australia and GRV, as well as serving on GRV’s Animal Welfare Taskforce. He has also been a director of the Geelong Greyhound Racing Club and the Melbourne Greyhound Racing Association. “Ray is passionate about greyhound racing and greyhound welfare and will be a great asset to the GRV board,” Minister Pakula said. “The greyhound racing industry is entering a new era and people like Ray will play a vital role in helping the industry realise its potential.” GRV’s Acting Chair, Peita Duncan said Ray’s appointment would be a great asset to the board. “The members of the board are pleased to welcome Ray, whose experience and passion will help GRV continue to go from strength to strength,” Ms Duncan said. The greyhound racing industry in Victoria generates $500 million for the economy and helps sustain more than 4,300 full-time-equivalent jobs.

Anthony Azzopardi’s charge had been working up tables from their heat meeting one week earlier. to this, after impressive runs in the National Straight Track Championships and Victorian State Final. Azzopardi was full of praise. “He’s an unbelievable dog. He’s just a little ripper and I reckon he truly deserves this.” “He needed to get out and run and he did. He did come across, but he didn’t crash. He worked his way across and once he sees daylight he takes off. “When he hurt himself at his last start at Horsham (June 4) my main goal was to get him right for the Healesville Cup. He was ready a bit sooner than I expected so we had a go at the Straight Track Championship first. In Azzopardi’s absence, Myrniong And All was handled by Neil Jones, with the former NSW trainer indebted to the assistance of Jones and his 21-year-old nephew Jacob Azzopardi. “The dog might race in my name, but this is their win too,” Azzopardi offered.

Race 3 at Angle Park was split into four two-dog match races yesterday, each featuring a Victorian and a South Australian representative, with the Vics making it a clean sweep. After dual Group 1 winner Sennachie (Steve White) had set the time standard at 29.21sec over Angle Park’s 515m trip, Hooked On Scotch (Jason Thompson) overcame a bumping duel with his opponent Fly For Fun before clocking 29.19sec. As part of a new cross promotion between GRV and Greyhound Racing SA, the fastest greyhound across the four matches was guaranteed a place in the $75,000 to-the- winner Group 1 Adelaide Cup final on October 11, bypassing the heats. And in a further reward, Hooked On Scotch has also gained entry into the $25,000 to-the-winner four-dog Shootout Tornado Tears (515m) at Sandown Park on 14 November. Hooked On Scotch (Barcia Bale – Nicki Fields) is a 21-month- old half brother to recently retired champion Poke The Bear. Earlier in September, Sandown Park held its ninth Speed Star event, where Hooked On Scotch again took time honours, blitzing all-comers with a scintillating 29.11sec victory on a soggy Sandown surface. Probably the most memorable match on Speed Star night was between Lucy’s Milo and NSW sensation Feral Franky, with the pair almost producing a dead-heat before the former got the nod.

Held twice a year, the Speed Star sees 40 of Australia’s GREYHOUND MONTHLY VICTORIA OCTOBER 2019 fastest greyhounds compete head-to-head across 20 matches for a share in $190,000 in prize money.

So far another chance to see their mates again (and win!). almost 100 groups – about 1200 people - have had a day out at the dogs, and more than $18,000 has been donated. On the day, each group is allocated a runner in 4 races and win money based on their dog’s placing, so everyone has a chance to take some much-needed funds. Some have used theirs for more day trips or recreational equipment; some for furniture or even towards a new bus. At the Ballarat event, long-term attendees Eureka Village has even been accumulating their winnings - $500 last year and $300 this year – for a new pool table for the residents. In most cases, the residents get to chose how to spend the money. Eureka has also expanded their greyhound connection by bringing their group to the track for dinner a few extra times every year. Ballarat’s Great Chase event saw more than There’s also a social angle.

They explained the day holds more than just racing for their charges; it’s chance to socialise with old mates. “The guys make connections with other groups and make lifelong friends at the greyhounds; that keeps us coming back year after year” said Colin. “The day is so great, and we use any winnings to expand the program and provide more day programs.” Groups have been loving Great Chase so long they have started to develop experts. At the Sale club, Ohana services group came along with a secret weapon in 2019, namely John; AKA ‘Mr GRV’. Apparently, if you’ve been to a greyhound racing club in Gippsland you will have run into John, who knows every trainer, every dog and all the staff at the tracks, so has been letting everyone else know how the day works and who to cheer for in the races. Special Needs athletes from the Horsham Rockets 6 at Horsham’s Great Chase Day LATEST NEWS SO FAR, SO GREAT. POSITIVE OUTCOME FOR MAGNETO... BY PHIL WEIR For fans of the X-Men franchise, the name Magneto could foster admiration or disdain, apparently (I’m sure we’ll get letters), but when it’s applied to a 4-year-old greyhound (rather than a mutant subspecies of humanity) it’s ALL about positive attraction. Magneto the greyhound has finally found a home, after more than 200 days at GAP. You see for Magneto, there is a negative. He has pannus, an eye disorder that requires regular treatment. It doesn’t stop him from being playful, goofy and affectionate, or loving cheese and his squeaky pig; it just means regular eyedrops to stop the advancement of the pannus. Katrina and Doug Heenan of Carrum Downs fell for the big lad when he was featured on GAP’s Facebook page a few weeks ago. Doug says, “Other than being a stunning dog, it broke our hearts to read that he had been at GAP for so long and kept being overlooked simply because of his eye condition.” “I had adopted Prada (our 11-year-old German Shepard) 18 months prior to getting Magneto, and she had dermatitis Paul Westerveld pictured with Barcia Bale as well as pancreatitis, plus her age, she had also spent a lengthy time at the shelter. “Magneto is settling in really well at home.

After two more wins, tragedy struck. While doing his regular work at home Barcia Bale broke his hock, leading to his immediate retirement. He was sent to Westerveld’s Meticulous Lodge where, once recovered, he began stud duties. Among his progeny are Melbourne Cup winners Dyna Double One and Aston Dee Bee – both of which are now established at stud – Million Dollar Chase winner Mystic Riot, Easter Egg winner Zipping Bailey, group 1 winners Raw Ability, Fast Times, Barooga Brett and Mepunga Blazer, as well as a host of other group performed greyhounds. In fact, Barcia Bale progeny have won over 16,000 races and earned more than $46m in prize money, more than $12m more than his closest rival over that period, Cosmic Rumble. Barcia Bale was truly a generational sire.
