Got space on your couch, Bendigo The Greyhound Adoption Program (GAP) is

coming to Bendigo for the first time; bringing

more than 30

beautiful, placid dogs for you to meet (and

potentially take home!)

It’s the first time we’ve arranged one of our

famous adoption days in Bendigo, so it might be

your first chance to see – and perhaps adopt – a

former racing greyhound. They’re great pets;

lazy, affectionate, low-maintenance and flat-out

funny.

GAP has re-homed more than 7,500 former

racing greyhounds in the past 21 years; which

makes us one of the most successful greyhound

re-homing agencies in the world.

We provide everything you need to begin your relationship with your dog; advice, background – even a collar and

a lead – for the full adoption price of $75.

So make space on the couch, then come and meet these beautiful dogs!

Sunday, August 13 – at the Bendigo Greyhound Club from 11am – 1pm.

Even if you’re not ready to adopt right now, we’re more than happy to answer your questions and talk about some

of the other greyhounds we may have available. Please note that due to high demand, there won’t be any cat-

tolerant greyhounds at this event.

Prevention is better than cure, right?

With breeding numbers down by around 60%, and an

estimated 30-40% of pups not being named, I would

like to start a new service... early education.

I'd like to see this become my main, if not only service.

I feel it's a critical step our industry has neglected for

too long, and with the poor percentages above, its

important we become more efficient with what we

breed.

I'll provide details in a day or so, but basically this

program is for 3-9 month old pups, with a minimum of

12 weeks to gain real benefit from the intense one-on-

one education. But longer the better!

There will be 6 stages of which your pup will go

through, all designed to ensure your greyhound is a well

-rounded, forward, confident and keen chaser, with his/

her prey-drive fully unlocked! They'll still get all the

standard rearing, but will also get exposed to the kennel

life as well as lots of bullring, box and drag lure work.

For older pups, at stages 4, 5, and 6, your hound will be

a junior race dog, they'll even compete against another

pup behind the drag and on the clock, so that'll be great

for syndications to keep clients excited!

With early and consistent positive reinforcement, I can

safely and confidently offer a full refund on the extra

service if (IF) your pup doesn't break-in. That's $15 per

week refund, even if you use the full 40 weeks, or

minimum 12 weeks. (*conditions apply).

GAP SA helps de-stress Flinders Uni

GAP SA spent a couple hours on 4 days at Flinders

with our Doggy De-Stress Clinic.

Due to the success of our 'De-Stress with Dogs

Clinic' in Rundle Mall in May, we were approach by

Flinders University to set up a similar stand during

exam weeks for exam-riddled students.

It was also a great success generating media

appearances on channel 10 and in local Messenger

newspapers. The students loved having a welcome

distraction from study and exams while the greyhounds

lapped up the attention. With the success of the stand,

GAP SA have now been invited back to Flinders to

setup for a day during their O'Week on Tuesday 25th

July.

We are in need of some volunteers for this day to

bring their beautiful greys along to give out cuddles and

pats to all the students. We will be there from 11 until

2:30pm. If you think you can help and have a

greyhound that is more than comfortable with a heap of

attention then please call the office on 8243 7124.

Beautifully bred litter

We received an email from Harry Manolitis during

the week about a beautifully bred litter of pups he

whelped on 21 June.

The pups are by international stud success, Kinloch

Brae* (August 2005 Craigie Mo Town x Greys Free

Style) from the beautifully bred bitch, Dasha (March

2014 Go Wild Teddy x Outlandish), whose dam is by

Collision x Tocsin (Pure Octane x Sound Lee).

Harry sent us this profile on the litter.

Champions. Record Breakers. Group stars.

That's the recipe behind this mating ... a recipe for

GREATNESS!

4 Dogs, 6 Bitches.

Whelped June 21.

Kinloch Brae-Dasha

(Craigie Mo Town-Greys Free Style)

The US sprint champion, champion sire in Ireland,

England and a phenomenon in Australia.

His damline traces directly to TWO US Hall of Fame

superstar Brad Hill Billy (G2 Launceston Cup, G2 Bob

Payne Sprint Sprint, 2nd G1 Golden Easter Egg, G2

Richmond Derby, 3rd G2 Sandown Shootout. Finalist

G1 Topgun, G1 Hume Cup, G1 Paws, G2 Bob Payne,

Horsham Cup, 3rd G1 Vic Peters, G1 H-Dawson,

finalist G1 Perth Cup, G1 Aust Cup, G1 Winter Cup, G1

Bris Cup, G2 Wgl Cup).

Dasha's second dam Tocsin is a litter sister to Regal

Blaze the dam of Absolute Stunna.

Kinloch Brae has a proven "nick" with broodbitches

with Collision in their dam. This is the cross found in

G1 Easter Egg winner Moreira and G1 Paws winner Aza

Flying Spur. Dasha's dam Outlandish is by Collision.

Dasha's second dam Tocsin is also a sister to Aston

Dream the dam of Aston Bolero (Geelong TR, G2 Ben

Cup, G2 Shep Cup, G3 S-Bullet, 2nd G1 Topgun, G2

Mait Cup, G2 Wgl Cup, G2 Ben Cup, finalist G1 Aust

Cup twice, G1 H-Dawson, G1 Temlee, G2 Wbool Cup,

G2 Hor Cup).

The overwhelming majority of Kinloch Brae’s very best

progeny in Australia have at least one, and sometimes

more, crosses of Malawi’s Prince in their dam.

Dasha has THREE crosses of Malawi’s Prince in her

pedigree.

EVERY single aspect of the mating between Kinloch

Brae and Dasha is proven to the ultimate level ... Group

1. The sire is a sprint champion and stud dog great. The

dam a multiple winner, half sister to superstars, from a

family of greats. And the cross is proven, proven,

proven. It stands every test.

Shima’s Swansong By Michael Floyd Racing & Media Manager SGRC

Shima Song’s finest race track performance is also

her last with connections immediately announcing

her retirement following her brilliant all of the way

victory in last Thursday night’s group 2 McKenna

Memorial.

Race favourite and five-time group 1 winner Fanta

Bale began beautifully from box three however Shima

Song ($8.10), drawn ideally in box 1, took full

advantage of her rails draw to push through and lead

through the first turn.

The pair was joined by Bella Shima as they

cleared away from the chasing pack down the back

straight.

Positions remined unchanged as they charged

through the driving rain, but as they turned for home

Shima Song rolled off the fence and Fanta Bale

switched to the rails. It set up a thrilling run to the line

with Bella Shima chiming in down the middle of the

track but Shima Song refused to buckle and held on

record a memorable victory. Just a length separating the

placegetters as they crossed the line.

“She’s the nicest girl, you couldn’t get a better

dog,” said handler George Dailly.

“She always tries hard and to hold off a dog like Fanta

Bale is a huge effort.”

The win was Shima Song’s 28th in 66 career starts

and the $40,000 first prize catapulted her career earnings

to $288,475. She has also been placed on 21 occasions

throughout her remarkably consistent career which

began more than 18 months ago, the last 12 months of

which have seen her racing exclusively in top grade.

Dailly believes that consistency is testament to her

outstanding attitude and will to work.

“She goes out and works and does exactly what

she needs to do. She does everything, she’s just

beautiful.”

It was a sentiment echoed by Shima Song’s elated

owner and breeder, David Gleeson, who had identified

her as a talent very early in her education.

“She was an incredible dog, you’d open the back

of the boxes and she’d run in. She was always down at

the front and she’d fly out, you saw it tonight she began

like a rocket. She very rarely misses the start,” he said.

“I thought down the back they’d start to take

ground off her but they didn’t. The two strongest dogs in

the field were sitting behind her and for her to show that

toughness was so thrilling. I’m thrilled to bits.”

Gleeson also bred the third-place getter Bella

Shima who is a half-sister to the winner, and also raced

their mother Shimaguni, a group 3 winner that finished

fourth in this race in 2011. Claiming the club’s premier

595m event was a special thrill for the long time

Sandown director who breeds and races his greyhounds

in partnership with good friend Bob Cummings.

“He will be absolutely over the moon. He couldn’t

come down tonight because he won’t leave the dogs at

home on their own. He’s the best man in Australia when

it comes to the handling of young dogs, there’s no one

better. I’m sure that Bob will be thrilled to the back

teeth.”

Despite only recently turning three years of age

and racing in the best form of her career, Gleeson was

certain that was the last time we’ll see her on the track.

A home on the couch beckons before embarking on a

breeding career.

“I wanted her to go out on a high. We’ll ease her

out of the racing kennel and give her the rest that she

deserves. I’m sure she’ll produce a few winners because

she’s a faultless dog.”

Later in the evening, Worm Burner returned to

Sandown Park for the first time since a career

threatening stomach muscle injury and reminded all why

he’s regarded as one of the country’s most exciting

chasers. Despite finding trouble throughout the run,

Worm Burner pushed his way between runners to

claim his 43rd career victory and take his career prize

money beyond $350,000.

Shima Song is a Black bitch whelped May 2014

by Dyna Tron from Shimaguni (Primo Uno x Messines).

Shima Song is raced by David Gleeson & Bob

Cummings and trained by Andrea Dailly at Corio in

Victoria. She has raced 66 times for 28 wins and 21

placings. After adding the $40,000 first prize for the

McKenna her stake earnings stand at $288,475.

AGRA News

The history of the McKenna Memorial

The McKenna Memorial was first run in 1971 and

acknowledges the contribution to the Sandown Club

by legendary administrator Jack McKenna.

McKenna came to Sandown and took the job of

Club secretary in the 1940’s from Tatura in central

Victoria. He had held the position of secretary of the

Tatura Plumpton Coursing Club and he made a major

impact after arriving in the city. He was instrumental in

the club’s advancement in many ways but importantly

its move across the railway line and the purchase of the

land of the current site. McKenna’s ability as an

administrator is still to this day talked about in revenant

terms and the sport and particularly Sandown will

always be in his debt. The honour roll listed below of

past winners is a classy one it starts with National

Distance Champ Saki Dasher trained by Aussie Rules

superstar Bob Pratt and includes recent winners,

another superstar Xylia Allen, 2015 winner Lady Toy

and last year’s winner Bruce Tycoon. The race has been

conducted over 595 since 2010. Prior to that the staying

event was conducted over the 700 and the list has some

of the best stayers of all time.

About Jack McKenna

Years involved in industry: 60

NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS:

Tatura Coursing Club Secretary 16 years

Sandown Greyhound racing Club secretary 35 years

Negotiated purchase of land on which the Sandown

GRC exists today.

When greyhound people hear

the name ‘McKenna’ they

think of the Sandown

Greyhound Racing Club’s

prestigious Group 2 distance

event, the McKenna Memorial.

However, precious few

these days know a lot about the

man after which the race is

named, the great John

McKenna, who was a big

advocate for distance racing in

his heyday.

Born in 1901, McKenna was a country boy turned

staunch Sandown GRC administrator who was not only

a hero of the Sandown club, but in the community at

large. An outstanding country footballer who captained

Tatura as a feared ruckman. McKenna’s leadership

qualities were apparent throughout his entire lifetime.

His involvement in the administration of

greyhound racing began when he was only 18 as

Secretary of the Tatura Coursing Club, a position he

held until he was 34 when he moved to Melbourne. It

was at this point, in 1935, that he was appointed the

Secretary of the Sandown GRC, and he stayed in that

role until 1970.

The Sandown club experienced some interesting

times during McKenna’s reign, particularly in the

1950s when the club was confronted with some major

issues. One of those included the club’s move from its

current location to a site on the other side of the nearby

railway line. Also, Sandown was abolished as a

proprietary club in 1955 only to get a new license under

the sport’s controlling body, the National Coursing

Association [NCA] in 1956. A few years later, in 1959,

an infamous split occurred between Sandown and the

NCA which created significant turbulence.

McKenna was a devoted family man who had

four children, and his wife Anne also spent many years

involved with Sandown and was an icon at the race

club in her own right.

Not only was McKenna a great provider for his

family during difficult economic times, but he also

helped many others.

“He was a fantastic humanitarian and had a very

strong association with St. Josephs Catholic Church in

Springvale. He was like the godfather of the Springvale

community”, said McKenna’s grandson Mark O’Brien.

His role at Sandown included being the club’s

Grader.

In his time as an administrator, McKenna was

determined that Sandown would provide the best

standard of racing in the state, if not the nation.

AGRA News

An occasional series featuring members of

the AGRA Hall Of Fame.

Rod Deakin In the late 1940s, Deakin

and his parents shifted to

Noble Park, and a few

years later he established a

five-acre property in

Keysborough.

At the peak of his greyhound breeding powers he had

more than 100 greyhounds on the complex. Deakin

considered greyhound breeding an art and a science.

His breeding philosophy was to select his best

race-performed brood matron and breed with her before

she turned two years of age.

He would then repeat the process a few more

times from that dam line, with a futuristic theory of

producing pups around eight years ahead of their time.

"It is no good breeding from an ordinary

performed sire and dam and hoping for the progeny to

be six to eight lengths better than the parents as this just

doesn't happen," Deakin once said.

From the 1960s through to the 1980s in

particular, Deakin bred, reared or raced a myriad of top

class greyhounds including Plunder Road, Corcoran,

Landena, Fawn Scout, Jefferson, Citizen Band, Tegimi,

Sargood, Wonoka, Crete, Titus, Incus, Varley, Bolta's

Gift, Plunderola, Balkan Chief, World Acclaim, Rod’s

Advice, Supplier, Tesoro Mio and Stetson.

A major player during the sport's golden era,

Deakin also had an eye for business and let it be known

to all and sundry that "every dog on his property was

for sale".

"He sold a lot of good dogs. I think he sold

Plunder Road and Corcoran to US interests for $10,000

and $20,000 respectively," said his son, Ross of Narre

Warren.

"But I wouldn't let him sell Tegimi; he was one of

my favourites." Ross added that his father was "bored"

after selling his Keysborough property in the early

1980s and "put his hand up" for an administration/

grader position in Macau.

"They were just starting up, and his knowledge

and experience was invaluable. He stayed there for

around five years," he said.

Deakin bred a veritable production line of

champions including the winners of four National

Distance Championships, two Sandown Cups, five age

classics, five coursing classics, and a Hobart Thousand.

He also divided the 1972 Victorian Derby with

One By One, Slim Design and Tinkering.

"Greyhound racing was his whole life, and he did

a lot for the sport.

He conducted seminars around Australia with

friend and legendary trainer Ned Bryant, and many

people asked him for advice," Ross said.

Deakin also was instrumental in the import of

Irish sire Lively Band to Australia.

He also stood top sires Fawn Scout and Second

Stage. Ross said his father would have been "over the

moon" with his induction into the Victorian greyhound

racing Hall of Fame. Rod Deakin passed away on

October 5, 1999, aged 75.
