Stanley the orse and Jimmy the goat.
I think the people who race their dogs at Wenty are quiet because they are all tense. I must admitt that I was. To race a dog at one of the Premier tracks in the country is the reason everyone is quiet. I think their only concern is their dog and hoping they perform to the standards of greatness and they do, (well some do.)
I admire all those greyhound trainer who get their dogs to those standards. Maybe one day I can say that about myself.
As for the stewards, they are trying to do their best for all concerned. I must admitt they do speak to you nicely. They are there to enforce the rules and as trainers we must abide by those rules and thats fair enough.
