PRESS RELEASE:
Country Winnebago Puppy Auction Extra Series
Dapto Greyhound Racing Club today announced that as part of their on going commitment to the Country Winnebago Puppy auction series that an additional series will now be conducted for greyhounds over 297m.
This new $10,000 series will be open to greyhounds that have had their full nomination fees paid up. Eligible greyhounds, commencing with graduates from the 2007 auction will be able to compete in both the 520m and 297m series.
Chairman of the DGRC Mr Jack Primmer added “this series is once again a commitment to participants who have supported the auction over the long term and also gives the opportunity for greyhounds unable to compete over the 520m distance an opportunity to race for excellent prizemoney”.
The series will be held in February of each year, following the 520m series which is held in November of each year.
Also, for the upcoming 10th Country Winnebago auction interested parties will be able to watch the auction live online for free via a link on our Puppy Auction website.
For people unable to make it to the auction an online bidding service will once again be available.
To view the auction live people will need to register via the website link that will be available by April 18.
Interested bidders will also be able to register via the website to bid online for pups in real time. However, to bid online people will also need to deposit sufficient funds to cover their bids in advance with DGRC.
