Charity support and regional community engagement are the cornerstones for Greyhound Racing Victoria’s (GRV) race day activations as the sport prepares to race on Good Friday for the first time in 2022.

Champion trainers Andrea Dailly and Jason Thompson loom as key players in Saturday night’s $450,500 Group 1 TAB Australian Cup (525m) at The Meadows, but the prolific feature race specialists will take very different records into the $300,000 to-the-winner showpiece.

Greyhound Racing Victoria (GRV) today announced the resignation of the Chief Executive Officer Alan Clayton PSM, with effect from today.

Chasing a second Group 1 Gold FM Sale Cup (650m) title on Sunday night, Jeff Britton is cautiously optimistic it will be a case of third time lucky on the G1 stage for TAB’s $2.10 favourite Mepunga Ruby in the Boxing Day showpiece.

Melbourne Cup hero Koblenz needs to overcome Box 8 to break Australian greyhound racing’s prizemoney record in Saturday night’s hugely anticipated inaugural $1.145M TAB Phoenix (525m), the world’s only greyhound slot race, at The Meadows.

Superstar sprinter Koblenz was bred to win the Group 1 TAB Melbourne Cup and after surviving a drama-charged dead heat to qualify for the world’s greatest race, the blueblood looms as the main danger to favourite Aston Rupee in Friday night’s $762,500 final to run at 8.53pm.
