GBGB is delighted to announce the nominees for the eight greyhound categories at the upcoming 2023 Greyhound of the Year Awards.
The annual Awards celebrate the outstanding performances of greyhounds across Great Britain throughout the year, as well as the commitment of the hard-working individuals who support their racers.
The nominees represent the breadth of top talent which graced our tracks in 2023, from dual Golden Jacket winner and TV Trophy heroine Bellmore Sally to last year’s Marathon Performer of the Year Space Jet and British-bred new kid on the block King Memphis, to name just a few.
This year’s Nominations Panel comprises Jonathan Hobbs (GWA Chair), Dave Baldwin (Arena Racing Company), Joe Conneely, (GTV), Darrell Williams (GWA), Steve Nash (GWA), Liz Mort (BGBF), Mark Burridge (Burridge Trophies), Scott Harvey (GBGB), Mark Moisley (GBGB), Duncan Gibson (GBGB), Peter Harnden (GBGB Trainers’ Rep) and Ian Foster (GBGB Owners’ Rep).
Scott Harvey, GBGB Racing Operations Executive, said:
“There were some outstanding performances in 2023 and we didn’t have to wait long with Links Maverick landing the Northern Puppy Derby at Newcastle at the start of the year, the first in his trilogy of Cat One wins. Droopys Clue has been sensational too and the judging panel have had their work cut out for them in certain categories thanks to another great year of action on the track.”
The winners will be unveiled at the Awards ceremony which will be held at the DoubleTree by Hilton Brighton Metropole on Sunday 3rd March 2024.
