If the Senor does come over for the Thousand I reckon he will give Damek windburn, they have had similar amount of starts now I think and EGS has earned bout $400,000 an Damek only about 50k!!!! I'm not knocking the dog at all I just think that if he wants to stay in Tassie and keep beating moderate opp. then he will never gain the respect of the greater greyhound community?? He just maybe a once in a lifetime dog!! If a dog like Magpie Lomar can come over a be a good city dog then I'm sure Damek could!!
magpie lomar was bred on the mainland went to tassie and won some good races and went back to mainland to win more races and why does every good dog from anywhere have to be compared to victorian standards wherever you race you can only race against what you are drawn in and they in most cases are not MODERATE dogs if you go by your statement egs is only beating the same dogs every time but are they moderate opposition i think not ,
