2013 Nitro Burst x Flying Liddy), whose dam is by

Flying Stanley* x Crazy Jo (Trendy Leigh x Crazy

Habit).

She is from a litter of eight named, with the six

who raced winning more than 60 races, led by the

outstanding, six time group winner, Zambora Brockie.

Her contribution to the litter’ success, was eight

wins and nine placings, from her 29 starts.

She won three times over 400 metres at Geelong

(22.43), with single wins over 400 metres at Mt

Gambier (23.36), 315 metres at Traralgon (18.09), 311

metres at Cranbourne (17.88), 390 metres at Ballarat

(22.03) and 390 metres at Warrnambool (22.35).

Her damline is exceptionally strong, through her

sire under-rated sire, Nitro Burst (Bombastic Shiraz x

Hotburst), then back through Black Shiraz, Ginger,

Eaglehawk Star, Tangaloa and Temlee, which is just

about as good as it gets, ever.

ZERO TEN* litter NEXT we have a nice litter of

nine pups by the highly rated

Irish sire, Zero Ten (May 2009

Kiowa Sweet Trey* x Express

Mist, whose dam is by Honcho

Classic x Airport Express

(Roanokee x March Queen.

His combination of U.S,

Australian and Irish bloodlines make him an exciting

stud prospect.

According to my records this is only his second

litter whelped in Australia, after Two Wells breeder,

Judith Hurley, registered a litter of four dogs and four

bitches, from her well bred brood bitch, Emerley

Senorita, whelped in April this year.

Talbot breeder, Troy Scott has this litter, which

has four dogs and five bitches, from the beautifully bred

bitch, Daintree Sugar (March 2011 Bombastic Shiraz x

Daintree Lady), whose dam is by Light Of Fire x

Honchytonk Girl (Head Honcho x Tenthill Melody).

She is from a handy litter of four named, all

winners, which included Coral, Daintree Arcade and

Daintree Mustang, with the four, winning 25 races

between them.

She raced 95 times, for seven wins and 19

placings, winning over 595 metres at Sandown (34.89),

600 metres at The Meadows (35.09), 513 metres at

Traralgon (30.37), 520 metres at Cranbourn (30.90) and

440 metres (25.25), 520 metres (30.02) and 650 metres

(38.06) at Sale.

She has one lightly raced named offspring on file,

from her December 2015 litter of four dogs and four

bitches, by Paddy Whacker*, named Chaddy Whacker,

who is already a winner.

Her litter sister Coral has proved herself as a

producer as well, with winners from both of her first

two litters.

Her November 2014 litter, by El Grand Senor,

produced Blue Reef, Fortune Favours, Grand Maximus,

Miller’s Court, Red Hot Fox, Rosanna and Tristesse.

She then whelped a September 2015 litter, by

Barcia Bale, which includes, Boil Over, Kid Ringo,

Nareen, Oleg and Sergei.

Revised Prize Money & Breeding

Sustainability Package

Following the valuable feedback received from the ICG,

Clubs, GOTBA and other stakeholders on options for

distributing additional prize money, GRV has revised its

proposal to provide for a more equitable distribution of

the increased prize money and additional funds to

stimulate breeding with the new package comprising of:

$2.55M p.a. to be added to minimum prize money; and

1.40M p.a. in new prize money and bonuses available to

be shared between owners and breeders of VicBred

greyhounds in a new Sustainable Breeding Package

The original proposal to increase trainers’ starters fees to

$80 per runner has now been removed from the package.

The new prize money proposal will mean Travel &

Starters’ Fees remain at their current levels of $70 per

trainer plus $10 per starter at all meetings. Two prize

money package options are now under consideration

which focus directly on increasing prize money to be

shared between owners and trainers at the lower levels of

racing.

The increases are to be implemented from 1 November

2017. All Vic Bred greyhounds of all ages will be

eligible immediately for the Breeding Package with no

nomination fees payable to be eligible.

sustainability package can be found at:

Talking Breeding

New South Wales

THIS week’s review of litters from the NSW Whelping

Report for the week ending 11 June starts with a litter

of six pups by Banjo Boy (April 2011 Vee Man Vane x

Off Springer).

Registered by Bathurst breeder, Tanya

Nieuwendyk, the four dogs and two bitches are from

the well bred, unraced bitch, Avondale Dancer

(November 2012 Mogambo x Avondale Miss), whose

dam is by Elite State x Miss Teddy Mint (Go Wild

Teddy x Franklin Mint).

She is from a litter of six named, of which the

five who raced, won 14 races between them.

She has five named offspring on file from her

first litter, all winners, Coolbes Valley, Manilla Traffic,

Metro Manilla, Oren Ishii and Thrilla Manilla, who

were whelped in May 2015, by Fabregas.

Two Barcia Bale litters TWO litters on the list this week by leading national

sire, Barcia Bale, March 2010 (Go Wild Teddy x

Princess Bale).

Molong breeder, Toby Weekes, has the first of

the two litters, which has three dogs and six bitches,

from the well bred, Group 1 placegetter, Kerrigan Bale

(July 2012 High Earner x Maple Bale), whose dam is

by Spiral Nikita* x Vista Bale (Golden Currency x

Luana Bale) and worth recalling, Luana Bale is by

Grove Whisper* x Red Fire Bale.

She is from a very good litter of nine named,

whoall won, with 89 race wins between them, lead by

the prolific winner, Lamia Bale, who won 23 times

with 19 placings, from 80 starts.

Kerrigan Bale raced 53 times, for 14 wins and 17

placings, winning five times over 525 metres at The

Meadows (29.69), four times over 515 metres at

Sandown (29.48), three times over 520 metres at

Wentworth Park (29.73) and also over 450 metres at

Ballarat (25.39) and 520 metres at Cranbourne (30.12).

She ran third in the Group 1 Paws Of Thunder

final, third in the Group 1 Sandown Laurels and was a

finalist in the Group 1 National Futurity.

She has two named offspring from her first litter,

whelped in December 2015, by Brett Lee, then has a

litter of two dogs and five bitches on file, by KC And

All*, whelped in October 2016.

Trevor Thompson, from North Lismore has the

other Barcia Bale litter, which unfortunately has just

the one bitch pup, from the well bred bitch, Tarks

Black Rose (February 2017 Oaks Road x Hot Spur),

whose dam is by Bombastic Shiraz x Skrat (Big Daddy

Cool x Dash Of Burgundy).

Brett Lee litters BRAIDWOOD breeders, the

Truclass Racing Syndicate have a

nice litter of nine pups on the list

this week that should create plenty

of interest, by former champion

sprinter and successful international

sire, Brett Lee (January 1999 Gun

Law Osti x Sobbing Sal).

Brett Lee died on 29 August

2010, so every litter which comes

through must be closing in on the

end of the semen stored before he

died.

The three dogs and six bitches in this litter, are

from the beautifully bred bitch, Saint Tifi (March 2011

Where’s Pedro x Tifi), whose sire was of course, by

Brett Lee x Elusive Rebel) and her dam by Bombastic

Shiraz x Chili Berger (Elle’s Commando x Alice

Dooley).

Saint Tifi is from a litter of eight named, who all

raced and won, winning 79 races between them, led by

Double Twist, 26 wins, Glama Pak, 13 wins, Stiff Arm,

12 wins and Somebody Tifi and Tifi For Me, with ten

wins each.

She was lightly raced, with just 15 starts, from

which she won twice, with two placings, winning over

520 metres at Nowra (30.43) and 400 metres at Bulli

(22.55).

She was reported to have started her career on par

with Double Twist but injury forced her early

retirement.

She has winning offspring on file from her first

litter, whelped in January 2015, by Collision, then has a

litter of three dogs and six bitches on file, by Zulu

Zeus, whelped in September 2015.

Certainly plenty to like about this litter,

particularly with future breeding in mind.

GRV NEGATIVITY PUTS INDUSTRY AT RISK

By Bruce Teague

Editor….

For just the second time ever, Victoria (GRV) has

officially recognised that it is running out of

greyhounds. A few weeks ago GRV announced it

would be recasting programs to better cater for the

declining demand. This week it made a formal appeal to

trainers and others to bring marginal racers to the track

to fill all the empty boxes. In both cases the reference is

to slow dogs which would not otherwise make the

grade.

While GRV has guaranteed no overall loss of

races, it is promising an increase in prize money by the

end of the year, implying that more cash in flowing into

the till. Fewer dogs and more money don’t quite fit

together but we will have to wait and see. Meantime,

there are overlapping influences.

1. For over a decade the Australian greyhound

population has been falling and the proportion of pups

in each litter making it to the track has been rising.

While 2016 official figures are scarce those trends

appear to have intensified recently.

2. In the last few years, lower grade events have started

appearing on major city programs and from 2010 cut

price races for slower dogs (Tier 3, Class C, etc)

bolstered or replaced normal TAB meetings.

3. The proportion of all races which are run over 400m

or less has been steadily rising and some short trips

have been freshly added to club programs (Albion Park,

Lismore, Angle Park). This trend is consistent with (1)

and (2) above.

4. In 2015 and 2016 alleged over-breeding was

identified by four inquiries, some state CEOs and GA

as the root cause of what was seen as excessive

euthanasia rates. Clearly, they were all wrong, which is

not surprising as they all failed to study the subject

properly or at all. Current GRV actions confirm the

problem.

5. Post live baiting, GRV (and others) elected to cut out

all breeding subsidies although, paradoxically, GRV

continued with races limited to “VicBred” dogs. The

combined effects of live baiting and cancelled subsidies

would certainly have discouraged some intending

breeders. (Whether those subsidies were sensible in the

first place is a different question again).

6. In all likelihood, government-enforced cost increases

will ensure NSW runs out of money in the medium

term and will have to cut back racing. That will prompt

an even greater shift of dogs to the south than has

occurred in the past. Temporarily, that may help

Victoria a little.

It is therefore obvious that the dog shortage is a man-

made problem, partly due to foolish live baiting

practices, partly due to overreaction by governments,

but mostly due to ineffective policies from state

authorities. But now GRV has created a new and even

bigger problem. The impact of all these changes is to

further reduce average field quality. Bottom level dogs

don’t all stay there but gradually filter through to

normal graded races – and so on up the scale (which is

why we have already seen standards drop at major city

venues).

Excellence has become a dirty word. Any old dog will

be able to get a run. That may help reduce euthanasia

numbers marginally but it will come at a cost. Serious

punters will be even more dismayed because you can’t

bet well on bad dogs. So the already significant trend

towards income from mug gamblers in pubs and clubs

will continue or perhaps accelerate. The existing poor

public image of the industry will persist. Not a happy

outcome.

The solution? Well, it is hard to see any magic wands

being waved. However, a light at the end of the tunnel

could emerge when or if the existing state racing

bureaucracies are replaced by livewire commercial

managers.

The status quo is never an answer – forwards or

backwards are the only options.

seconds and 10 thirds with stake earnings to date of

$377.945.

He is the undisputed king of Angle Park, having

won 13 races in a row there midway through last year.

He has been doing his racing in Victoria of late,

until last week when he returned home for the cup

heats, beating High Eden Snow by 4.75 lengths,

stopping the clock at 29.59.

He has a P.B of 29.17 on the track, which far better

than any of his rivals in this year’s Cup.

The box draw hasn’t made it any easier for him

either, but there is little doubt he is more than capable

of taking the crown this year.

He is certain to be the sentimental favourite if not

top pick in the betting order as well.

Cameron and Yvonne Butcher, who own and

trained him for most of career, certainly deserve the

win, as does.

It would be a fitting reward for a brilliant career

as he heads to s blossoming career at stud.

FLEAS

Fleas are the most common external parasite of

dogs. Even the best-kept dogs can be infested with

fleas, especially if they regularly leave their

property. Left untreated the infestation quickly

becomes a much bigger problem and can lead to other

things such as tapeworm infection, anaemia (low red

cells in the blood) and skin conditions such as flea

allergy dermatitis.

At the track, the on-track veterinarian will be on the

look-out for fleas, and infested greyhounds will be

scratched from racing and sent home. It’s such a pity

to have the dog just right, make the field and get

scratched going over the table because your dog has

fleas.

But I bathed the dog

Many dog owners and trainers think that simply

bathing their dog will solve the problem, but this is not

the case. To understand how to truly keep on top of

fleas, you first need to understand their lifecycle.

Fleas are a little bit like a mosquito in that they feed on

blood. Without a feed of blood, they are unable to

mature and lay their eggs. So to the flea, your

greyhound is simply a moving restaurant – they jump

on, have a feed, leave and then lay their eggs and

die. The majority of the flea lifecycle takes place away

from the dog – in the bedding, kennels, or even in the

carpet of your house if your dogs come inside. So what

you see on the dog is only the tip of the iceberg.

How does the dog get fleas in the first place?

Even if your property is completely flea-free, your dogs

can become infested if fleas are brought onto the

property. This can be via a new dog coming into the

kennels, through straw-type bedding (often infested

from rabbits that live in hay sheds), or from yours or

the neighbour’s cat that has been off wandering and has

picked up a few fleas on their travels. Dogs, cats and

rabbits all share the same fleas. Your dog may also

pick up fleas when off your property.

The flea simply jumps onto the dog as it goes

past. Once on the dog, the flea will usually head

towards the rear, often spending most of the time in the

hair above the base of the tail. This is why the best

place to look for fleas is in this area, or in the less hairy

parts of the dog such as the belly area or inside the

thighs. Seeing fleas with the naked eye can be hard as

they don’t like light, so if you part the dog’s hair the

fleas will scramble into the dark areas.

Sometimes the only thing you will see is ‘flea-

dirt’. This is simply the waste matter the flea passes

out after digesting its meal. Flea dirt looks like normal

grains of dark dirt in the coat, but if you wet it, it

dissolves and turns a reddish colour. Similarly, if you

are bathing the dog, and the water hits the flea dirt, it

will turn into a reddish stain. If there is flea dirt, there

are fleas, whether you can see them or not.

What happens once the flea is on the dog?

Once on the dog, they start feeding. The flea will suck

blood from the dog, injecting saliva as they do it. This

flea saliva can cause allergic reactions in some dogs,

and they will quickly start to bite and scratch at

themselves – similar to a person who is allergic to

mosquito bites. This can lead to severe coat problems,

dermatitis, and damage to the skin from biting and

scratching.

Once the flea has had its meal of blood, it will start to

lay eggs which simply drop off the dog. Each flea can

lay hundreds of eggs, and these eggs can survive in the

environment for quite a long time (even years) and are

quite hard to kill. Because the eggs drop off the dog,

common places for egg infestation are bedding, resting

areas, and kennels – all places where dogs spend a lot

of time.

Hatching of the eggs occurs when the temperature and

humidity is right. The hatching can also be triggered

by vibration. This explains why people who move into

an empty house that has previously had pets often end

up with flea bites – their movement triggers the eggs to

hatch and the fleas have no pets to jump onto, and end

up biting the people instead!

Flea eggs hatch into larva, which look similar to a

microscopic maggot. They are not as tough as the

eggs, and need warm, humid conditions to mature. The

larvae then spin a little cocoon for themselves and turn

into the next lifecycle stage – the pupae. The pupae

can survive for months before hatching into adult fleas,

so even if you think you have got rid of all the adult

fleas, you will still have pupae waiting to hatch when

the conditions are right.

FLEAS Continued

How long does it take? The whole lifecycle of the flea – from adult to eggs to

adult can take as little as 2 weeks in the warm, humid

months, meaning one flea can turn into hundreds which

can turn into thousands in under a month! That is why

flea problems tend to be worst in the spring and

summer months when the weather is just right.

What should I do to keep my dogs flea-free?

Only 5% of the flea problem is adult fleas on the dog,

so the only way to be successful in controlling fleas is

to address the environmental infestation as well. In the

past, people used flea combs to remove the adult fleas

from the dog’s coats, but when the dog goes back to its

kennel it gets re-infested.

Similarly, bathing the dog with a flea shampoo, or

using a flea rinse will certainly kill the fleas on the dog

at the time of the bath and rinse them from the coat, but

it will do nothing to stop the dog becoming re-

infested. Add to this, many of the ‘old-fashioned’ flea

rinses are quite toxic, and there is little point to using

them if you want to truly solve the problem.

These days there are many ‘spot-on’ products that not

only kill the fleas on the dog when applied, but go on

working to kill the fleas for up to a month. This can

work quite well as you are basically using the dog to

clean the environment – the eggs hatch, the fleas jump

on and die, no new eggs are laid. The environmental

store of eggs gradually all hatch and you end up with

reduced environmental contamination. There are also

products that have an added ingredient that stops the

eggs from hatching. The product crystallizes and small

crystals fall off into the dog’s bedding and elsewhere,

causing any eggs there to become sterile.

Finally, addressing the environmental contamination

can also reduce the burden. Regularly vacuuming

carpets will remove eggs, but remember to empty the

vacuum bag into the bin as the eggs will still be alive in

the bag. Regularly washing dog blankets and bedding

in hot water for more than 10 minutes, or completely

replacing carpet used in the kennels will also keep the

environment cleaner. Avoid giving your dogs access to

areas such as under the house, where the humidity and

temperature are right for a fast flea lifecycle and where

cleaning is almost impossible.

Finally, make sure that any new dogs coming onto your

property are treated for fleas. Treating the arriving dogs

yourself with a good quality flea product will ensure

you keep the fleas away. Ask your greyhound

veterinarian for advice on which products would best

suit your kennel.
