All pups get second chance at Spring Meet
Due to a relatively small number of entries (258), the NGA Board of Directors has approved a plan that will allow all qualified entrants to come back and run a second race on Thursday or Friday.
Once entrants in the regular stakes have been determined (i.e., Main, Flite I, Flite II, Borchers, Cooler and Warmer), the remainder of the 4th, 5th and 6th place greyhounds will be drawn, according to their age groups and divisions, for a series of consolation races on Thursday and Friday.
One intent is to get a second line on all pups and to allow a pup who had bad racing luck in Round 1 to once again show his or her talents during the Meet. This will give auction bidders on Friday and Saturday a better opportunity to gauge the true potential of each pup and bid accordingly.
