ARC are inviting trainers with intended runners for the forthcoming Puppy Classic the option of trialing on Wednesday at Nottingham.

Spokesman Dave Baldwin said: “With the Towcester racing being put back a week, it only gives eight days before the Puppy Classic starts. Since greyhounds would need to have trialed or raced at Nottingham prior to the closing date, this would give them that opportunity. John Mullins has already booked a couple in for Wednesday. I would ask anyone else who requires trials to get in touch as soon as possible.”
