Macro Meats A Popular Sponsor At Virginia Coursing
Owners and trainers were most appreciative to the sponsorship provided by Macro Meats (AKA Ray Borda) where the Club was able to double the prizemoney for every event. Kangaroo products were also provided for the BBQ and these were well received.
Carole Scott led the training charge when Noble Quoted and Lola Montez greeted the judge; Justin Penn's Howzat Colmar took out the main event from Miss Eva Mai; Kim Johnstone's West on Wallis withstood a late challenge from Oval Avenue and the remaining events were shared among some new faces.
Owners and trainers are reminded of our meeting on 2 August – the Ruby Loans Rising Star Prelude for SA BRED greyhounds will be conducted (for greyhounds whelped on or after 1 July 2007). Nominations close with GRSA on Wednesday 29 July at 9 am.
