Angela Harrison has withdrawn from Premier Greyhound Racing Judgement Night at Perry Barr on Thursday April 6. Her place in the event – which replaced the old ‘Trainers Championship Meeting’- will be taken by David Mullins.
Assistant Trainer Jimmy Wright said: “There are two reasons really. From a personal point of view I have been struggling with a few aches and pains lately which means I am having to step back a little bit.
“That won’t affect the kennel in any way, but we are aware that we don’t really have a team of dogs good enough to take part. The loss of (Move Over) Cha was a huge blow to us. He was a wonderful dog, still very young, and this was going to be his year.
“Some of the other dogs haven’t made up as well as we would like, and some might get there but are going to need longer to develop. (Coolavanny) Aunty has been suppressed but we have taken her off the pill and she will be retired as soon as she comes into season.
“So we are in a process of rebuilding. There is money in the bank to spend on good dogs but finding them isn’t that easy.”
David Mullins will join the field that includes Mark Wallis, Patrick Janssens, Kevin Hutton, Liz McNair, and his brother, John.
