Victoria
GOTBA Vic is committed to being an open, transparent organization for its members, one that enhances and projects the voices and interests of greyhound racing participants at every level for the benefit of all of them. We best do that by hearing from you and from your active membership with us.
This is my first report to you as President of GOTBA Vic. By way of short introduction, I am a barrister and have been a GOTBA Vic committee member for several years, including the last one as a Vice President. I have been a greyhound owner since 1999 and have a keen interest not only in all aspects of the greyhound and the sport of greyhound racing, but also the people in it. In September 2018, after heading GOTBA Vic for about 5 years, Sandra Reed decided to step down as President to spend some more time with her family and on other duties. Sandra has been a force for the greyhound racing participant, often behind the scenes, actively working to promote the interests of owners, trainers and breeders small and large alike. GOTBA Vic will not lose her experience and advice. Sandra will continue as a committee member and as one of two Vice Presidents (with Robert Britton), and will continue with a great deal of her work for participants. I congratulate her on her time as President and hope all those who read this will join in thanking her too. The year ahead is a significant one for the sport of greyhound racing in Victoria. Change continues apace.
WHAT IS THE GOTBA? The Greyhound Owners, Trainers and Breeders Association (GOTBA) of Victoria is a not-for profit incorporated association, run by a committee of volunteers who work towards the constant improvement of the sport on behalf of member and their greyhounds. GGOTBA Committee: Lynton Hogan (President) Robert Britton & Sandra Reed (Co-Vice Presidents) Gayle Osbourne (Secretary) John Reid, John Cheeseman, Karen Leek, Geoff Miles, Stan Ralph and Brian Selleck (General Committee). Are you a member of the GOTBA? If not, please contact us via the channels below. Website: gotbavictoria.wildapricot.org General enquiries: gotbav@gmail.com Phone: 0423 357 620
What most matters to GOTBAVic, irrespective of change, is that all participants are fairly treated and fully rewarded for their participation and success in a sport that hears and acts on their input and undoubted expertise. In 2018/19 GOTBA Vic will be both active and visible in many areas: from assistance to participants in the lead -up to the January 2020 commencement of the Code of Practice for the Keeping of Racing Greyhounds to advocating forcefully for participants’ interests with GRV (and others) in matters as diverse as grading, breeding, licensing and disciplinary matters, planning issues and (in particular) increasing the economic returns of all participants. - 13 -

Copley’s Corner Training my first champion By Andrew Copley Warrnambool trainer Mathew Wright made the inevitable call to retire his dual Group 1 winning sprinter Lightning Frank last month. It’s a decision that didn’t come easy. Lightning Frank took Wright to places he had only ever dreamed of. A win in last year’s age-restricted Silver Chief Classic was one thing, but to return to The Meadows six weeks later and blitz an invitation-only field in the Temlee provided the thrill of a lifetime. “For years I watched a lot of big races on Thursday and Saturday nights on the TV and wondered what it would be like to one day have a dog that is good enough to compete in those sorts of events. You just want to be part of it,” Wright said. “Then, with Frank, it finally happened and his whole career went like a blur. I never really sat back and thought I was training a champion. But when he won the Temlee and then stepped out a week later and won an Australian Cup heat (in 29.53sec Best) it was pretty special knowing he was one of the best dogs in Australia at that time.” Lightning Frank retired with 22 wins from 47 starts and $338,787 in prize money to his name. He started favourite in more than half of his starts, in part because of his immense talent and also because he had a cult following. Wright said the high expectation came with the territory of training an elite greyhound and that is was something he embraced.
that he was probably a bit more prone to injury because he’s that little bit quicker than all the other dogs I’ve trained, so he was putting a lot more strain on his body. Because of that I just had to manage him a bit more carefully,” he said. “The only time I felt nervous training him was on the way to the track for a major race. You’d be on the freeway and you’d see some crazy driver on the road and think to yourself am I going to get there safely? We always did, and he always travelled beautifully because he has got such a great temperament, but travelling to the races to compete in an important race like a Group 1 takes a bit of getting used to.” During time injured on the sidelines Lightning Frank spent a period at Paul Westerveld’s stud property alongside champion sires Fernando Bale and Barcia Bale. While a lack of strong interest from breeders meant things didn’t quite work out as planned, Wright hopes his greyhound’s second stint at stud will be different. “The three things in his favour are his temperament, his ability and the Black Magic Opal factor. Black Magic Opal is no longer in Australia but he produced some freakish greyhounds from limited opportunity. And the fact that Westy (Westerveld) took Lightning Frank on and believed he had a future at stud was probably the greatest endorsement of all. He is the best (studmaster) in the game, but few breeders are taking a chance with unproven sires these days. Lightning Frank has a few litters on the ground, but they are too young to race just yet. Hopefully they can make an impact when they get to racing age and his stud career can take off from there,” Wright said.
“You feel a bit of pressure but it’s a good pressure because people genuinely wanted him to do well. He is Lightning Frank is standing with Wright while he is owned by a few guys from around Warrnambool and he getting over some “niggling injuries” for a stud fee of $800. gave a lot of people some great times. His owners (the Hashtag Syndicate), his owners’ friends and family and basically the entire local community took such a close interest in him. I always took him to the races but I hear there were some pretty big celebrations in the local pubs when he raced and he made the back page of the local paper (The Warrnambool Standard) a few times which was good for the sport.” A fencing contractor by trade, Mathew owes a lot to his father, Kevin, who “does a heap of work with the greyhounds most nights, which allows me to work later.” And with his dad by his side, Mathew always had confidence in his ability to train at the elite level. “As a hobby trainer you’ve got to be extremely thorough Lightning Frank wins a neat of the 2017 Australian Cup in 29.53 BON to compete with the professional trainers. The main difference I found with training Lightning Frank was - 18 -
Copley’s Corner Yellow dogs make 10K in hay If you are thinking about bringing a greyhound into your life or simply want to find out more about greyhounds as pets go to:
gap.grv.org.au Rory The sport of greyhound racing raised $10,000 for struggling Aussie farmers on Thursday with a brand new campaign supporting Rural Aid’s ‘Buy a Bale’ program. For every greyhound that won wearing the yellow number five rug on the night at Albion Park, Angle Park, Dapto, Hobart, Mandurah and Sandown, $1000 was donated to ‘Buy a Bale’, which delivers hay and other essential items to farmers who have little or no feed left for their cattle. A total of eight greyhounds won in the yellow rug across the six race meetings, including a nation-wide high three at Sandown, while Greyhound Clubs Australia donated $2000 to the cause which took the total up to $10,000. The three Sandown Park winners in yellow were: - Orson Allen (Correy Grenfell) - Blackjack Neo (Robert Neocleous) - Swift Rain (Steven White) The national fundraising effort was performed collaboratively by Greyhounds Australasia in conjunction with GRV, GRNSW, Racing Queensland, GRSA, Tasracing, Racing and Wagering Western Australia and Greyhound Clubs Australia.

This is Ellie It is Ebby’s GAP Day anniversary I was so sad to see this girl go off to GAP all those years ago...hated leaving "Cheeky Girl" But I am so glad she finally found Anne Maree Kuhn who loves her to bits Noel McMahon
Danielle Forlivesi says: https://www.rspcapetinsurance.org.au/.../dog-groomingguide This page here is helpful for bath tips! They don't require regular baths. Due to the size of my grey and his unwillingness to step up onto things (like the Petbarn DIY dog baths), it's easier to wash him in the backyard. Just keep him on his leash *See more comments on the facebook page.
