MILLION DOLLAR CHASE

In 2018 Greyhound Racing NSW introduced the Million Dollar Chase, the richest greyhound race event in the world, and one which culminates with a Grand Final at Sydney’s Wentworth Park in late October, the winner to collect a $1 million prize.
The Million Dollar Chase is more than just one race however, with the series weaving its way through Regional NSW, greyhounds are able to qualify for semi-finals which are run at Wentworth Park. From there eight greyhounds qualify for the Grand Final, where one becomes the sport’s latest millionaire.
The event also has a strong focus on the welfare side of the industry, with 100% of all entry fees donated to the GRNSW charity, Greyhounds as Pets, to help with re-homing of greyhounds after their racing careers.  A gala luncheon is also held prior to the Grand Final, with money raised at that event, also going to GAP NSW.
In its inaugural year, the race was won by Mystic Riot, trained at Llandilo in Western Sydney by Jodie Lagogiane, whose husband Peter was her handler that night and produced emotional scenes as he danced up the home straight in jubilation.

A year later, and this time it was Western Sydney couple Frank and Tracey Hurst celebrating as their greyhound Good Odds Harada took out the world’s richest race.

Interstate dogs have dominated in recent times with Queenslander Double Gee winning in 2019, and in the 2020 edition of the Summer Plate, Jeff Britton – who won the race with Dublin Bull in 2017 – prepared True Detective to take out the feature stayer event.

RICHMOND RICHES

The Richmond Riches took its first steps in 2014 when the Richmond Riches Puppy Auction was held. A total of 325 pups went under the hammer yielding a gross amount of $1.4 million. The lure was that pups going through the sale could race in two years’ time for $100,000 in the Richmond Riches race series. The inaugural race in 2016 was taken out by Tony Brett’s Thirty Talks, purchased at the sale for $30,000. Jason Mackay’s Mister Twister would win the Richmond Riches in 2017, while in 2018, the scratching of Uncle Donuts allowed first reserve My Mate Fox to gain a start and the Peter Barnes-trained roughie saluted. In 2019, a young dog from the kennel of Forbes trainer Jack Smith who was about to become the next big thing, a dog named Feral Franky, claimed the Richmond Riches.

In a major revamp the club put down a new loam surface and track re-shape in 1999 and the Derby is now run over the new distance of 535 metres. In yet another track development in 2022 the distance is now 520 metres. In yet another track development in 2022 the distance is now 520 metres.

RICHMOND STRAIGHT CUP

2023 Prince Creed

BLACK TOP

The NSW NCA could not have selected a better name for this on going feature at the Gardens. The race is now operated by the GBOTA Black Top by Top Linen from Classy Jane was an icon of the sport, he was raced by Frank Holmes of Highfields (near Newcastle) and his breeder Mrs. Edna Hanson bred him in Birmingham Gardens the suburb in which the Gardens track is located. He raced in the early 60’s only contested 20 races for 17 wins and two seconds. He retired as Australia’s highest stakes winner with 5352 Pounds. His introductory stud fee set at 65 pound was a record service fee in Australia. A breeding success of extraordinary proportions Black Top created his own dynasty which continually re-wrote the record books on greyhound racing in this country. The feature races his progeny won and the stars he produced are too numerous to list, he served a record 1326 bitches and sired 6000 puppies earning approximately $150,000 in service fees. There is no doubt we will never see another Black Top, he was the one and only. Black Top was inducted into the AGRA Hall of Fame at the AGRA Awards night at Sandown in March 2008 and again in March 2009 in Perth when he went into the Sires category.

BOB PAYNE WINTER STAKE

First run in 1961 the Winter Stake is a time honoured GBOTA feature sprint event. It was sponsored for many years commencing in the early 80’s by Bradshaw’s Waste one of Greyhound racings major contributors during that period. The company shared a long affiliation with former GBOTA Chairman of eight years (1978-1985) Bob Payne and following his retirement from that position Bradshaw’s requested the Winter Stake be named after Payne to commemorate his massive contribution to Greyhound racing in New South Wales and in particular the GBOTA, he had first joined as a member in 1943. The feature race has remained named in his honour and is now held as a memorial following Bob Payne’s passing nine years ago. For the first and only time the event was conducted twice this year as the Summer Stake in January but has now been moved to late September and renamed the Spring Sprint with the cross over period causing no race to be run in 2011. The race has been won by some of the sports finest sprinters and listed below is the honour roll. The feature was conducted at  Harold Park 457m on the  Grass Track 1964 -1987,  at Wentworth Park 520m on the  Grass Track 1988 – 1991 and Wentworth Park 520m on Loam since 1992.

LISMORE CUP

The Lismore Club has enjoyed 33 years of being sponsored by the Lismore Workers Club, something quite rare these days furthermore the association is set to continue in 2013.

The Cup has been won by some fantastic sprinters over the years, since it was first run in 1968 when won by Bonnie Beaver, the prizemoney was the princely sum of $50. It was worth $500 when John Scholten took over the reins in 1978 that year the cup was won by Deb’s Jewel and rose to $8000 when Rapid Journey won it in 1998.

The Association has gradually increased the prizemoney and this year the first prize to the winner is $40,000 and holds Group 2 status. The race was first awarded Group status (Group 3) in 2001. The event is open to the best 32 greyhounds nominated and below is a list of Cup winners since 1968.

TWEED HEADS GALAXY

The Border Park Galaxy was the brainchild of legendary club administrator Harry Pledger, Pledger severed a record number of years as club secretary now in his 80’s he is still Club president. The name of the race was conceived by Harry and meant a galaxy of stars racing under the stars. It has been a most sought-after feature since its inception in 1971 and has been won by a number of quick dogs over the horseshoe circuit of 420 metres. Not only do they need to have high speed but also the ability to back up on the Monday after winning their heat on the Saturday. The race is just as famous for its winners as it is for the cavalcade of top liners that have got beaten trying to win it. It remained the richest non-TAB feature race in Australia a mantel it had held since King Doolittle won in 1971. The race had to drop prizemoney and Group status in 2010. The last Galaxy held was won by Pierino for John and Glenda Dart in 2013. Sadly, the land the venue raced on was sold to be used for the nearby Gold Coast Airport in 2016 and a replacement racing venue for the Tweed Heads club has yet to be found.
