Star Pelaw launches sales owners bonus

International Greyhound Services Sale

Thursday morning will see the latest International Greyhound Services Sale, this one at Star Pelaw. The track announced an owners bonus this week for any greyhound who has five runs at the track. Once five runs are in the book, the track will give the owner 10% of the purchase price back, up to £250.

Offers have been made along these lines in the past as tracks look to not only find new dogs for their kennel strength but also to try and encourage owners back into the sport who might have fallen by the wayside in years past. Sheffield offered part bond payments to any greyhounds staying at the track to run on the graded strength last year as one such example.

Hopefully, it will prove to be a popular offer and add to the runners at the track. Star Pelaw have been working hard to improve things for owners and trainers, hosting an evening for them earlier in the year to go over plans for the future. It is going to be an exciting time to be associated with the track.  

The Sales Catalogue and preview were released earlier in the week. We went over some of the lots that we think will be the most interesting in a preview ourselves and are looking forward to a day at Pelaw on Thursday to see how the day goes. There will be a report on the sales later on in the week.
