Don't you know the new rules? No structure and no incentive
Cater for all who nominate for 300m races first, and f$%k everybody else

Gillian,
Changing the prize money structure will fix most of the problem.

When the grading in NSW was changed a few months back it was virtually a directive to send your dogs out of NSW. After 4 wins in the same distance category your greyhound is 4th grade AT ALL TRACKS. This results in your dog being drawn against FFA dogs or not obtaining a start. This is the same grading system that was got rid of 10 or twelve years ago. No longer can your greyhound go through its grades at all tracks.
