Ellie is in Race 2, Box 5. Jack is in Race 6, Box 3. Poppy is in Race 7, Box 6 and Tiger is in Race 10, Box 5.

24.01.2022 Merlin succeeded in beating a very strong field to take out tonight's feature at Sale. Managing to run down future star Fortuna Bale who had won her past 5 just shows how good he is. So proud of our boy! We will now prep him for a Ballarat Cup assault. Video of tonights win below. https://fasttrack.grv.org.au/RaceVideo/RaceVideo/606648448

23.01.2022 Nice debut from Tiger (Call Me Tiger). He was a little green but has speed to burn. Been a challenge to get him healthy but all worth it when they perform like that! Well done Tiger! Video of his win below. https://fasttrack.grv.org.au/RaceVideo/RaceVideo/592284208

22.01.2022 Big Mike went within 2 lengths of the Ballarat 450m track record held by Shima Shine in his huge win tonight. He went 25.08 on Saturday in a trial and having had the look went almost 4 lengths quicker tonight to beat a very strong field. Next stop for him is the Ballarat Cup heats which run next Saturday. Hopefully he can repeat the effort next week! So proud of our boy! Video of his win is below! https://fasttrack.grv.org.au/RaceVideo/RaceVideo/614923902

22.01.2022 Really great to see Jack returning to his best at Sale tonight. So close last week and determined not to be beaten tonight. Link to view his win: https://youtu.be/U2nCG3sWsHU

21.01.2022 This is how to start a weekend! Merlin (Dream Wizard) just won a very strong 3-6 Win Final at Bendigo. Even had a nice bonus on it. What a way to break your run of seconds and get back on the winners list! Very proud of our boy! Video below. https://fasttrack.grv.org.au/RaceVideo/RaceVideo/587943808

20.01.2022 Super run from Merlin in a best of the day win at Healesville. Can't go much faster than that in these blustery conditions. So proud of him. Video of his win below. https://youtu.be/IGQZ-49ASxU

20.01.2022 Have you ever wanted your very own pet Tiger? Tiger is a 2.5 year old whose body has decided it can't cope with the rigors of racing (he has an ongoing wrist injury that affects his racing career but not his zest for life). Often described as one of the happiest dogs you will ever meet, Tiger loves going for a walk (often knocking his lead and muzzle out of your hand in his enthusiasm) and has not met a greyhound he hasn't loved. We have not tested Tiger with small dogs, ca...ts or children but we will take him along to the Hastings Greyhound walk on Sunday to test his socialisation with other dogs. He will be booked in for desexing within the next fortnight (he only retired from racing on Friday) and we will be rehomed with a current C5 vaccination. He is currently located with us in Devon Meadows, if you are interested, please feel free to message us through this page. We do not know if he is cat friendly and as we don't have a cat, we won't be testing this. See more

20.01.2022 Super win to Big Mike at Sale tonight in the Grade 5 Final. The fact he was only just over 4 lengths outside the track record shows just how ridiculously quick that run was. So proud of him! He had his box (unbeaten from Box 8) and made the absolute most of it! Video below. https://fasttrack.grv.org.au/RaceVideo/RaceVideo/596021164

17.01.2022 Merlin capped off his Ballarat Cup preparation with a gutsy win tonight in the FFA at Sale tonight. Had to do it all the hard way but so proud of him. Well done Merlin. Video below. https://fasttrack.grv.org.au/RaceVideo/RaceVideo/615326201

17.01.2022 Another great run from Mike (Gotham Duke) tonight at Sale. Copped some bumps and accelerated away in the straight.

15.01.2022 What a great weekend! Poppy (Niccali) has got up for a very gutsy win at Sale to give us and owner Noel a cross track double. She keeps getting stronger and that was her most impressive win so far. She may be a handful but I don't think there is a dog around that loves racing anymore than her. Video below. https://fasttrack.grv.org.au/RaceVideo/RaceVideo/592702053

10.01.2022 Had been a pretty unlucky night for the kennel tonight at Sale so Merlin took luck out of the equation and pinged the boxes on his way to a fantastic all the way win. Great effort and time from the Wizard. Well done Merlin. Video below. https://fasttrack.grv.org.au/RaceVideo/RaceVideo/606283149

03.01.2022 We love a happy ending! After over 8,000 views of Facebook, Tiger has found his forever home. Within hours of starting a trial stay, he knew he had arrived at his new house. He was resting on the couch, eating alongside his new brother and sister and loving his new life (including a bath and a trip to Bunnings!). The best part is he now has a human sister who will spoil him rotten! Thank you Nic, Ben and Ruby for opening your house to our beautiful boy, we know he is in the best of hands!

03.01.2022 Everyday is a bit of a challenge with Milly. She has had some injury set backs and is just a little bit enthusiastic about everything she does. Nice to see her finally putting her training together to break through for a win in her third start today. Congratulations to her and her owners!... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVf7Zl_n3HU

03.01.2022 Not often do you have days like this so we better enjoy it. Our first ever treble (across two tracks) with Mike, Jack and Poppy all winning impressively! Here is Jack's brilliant win in 22.43 at Geelong. Link below. So proud of the team. https://fasttrack.grv.org.au/RaceVideo/RaceVideo/589810771
