SKY FIXTURES

BAGS yesterday announced the remaining SKY fixtures for 2016. There is a good variety of races with few surprises – with no decision made on the St.Leger, bringing the total annual coverage up to 37 meetings.

“Coverage keeps building and building,” said Scott Harvey, race programme controller for BAGS. “And that’s good news for trainers, owners and breeders alike. It is vital that we keep this, the sport’s shop window, wide open for all to see. Thanks to the continued support of bookmakers we are able to do this and these Sky nights present owners and trainers across the country with a chance for a spot in the limelight. Everyone dreams of seeing their dog run on Sky.”

BAGS chairman Dominic Ford added: “We are delighted that our partnership with Sky continues to deliver top class Greyhound Racing into people’s living rooms.”
