Trainers

IT was inevitable that Hayley Wooler one day would be entrenched in the business of conditioning greyhounds for racing.

EACH month Chase publishes a trainer’s column that offers industry newcomers and/or regulars insights and advice that may help guide them to success. This month we highlight a man who is as heavily involved in greyhounds as anybody else but has never held a trainer’s licence.

JOHN Martin has been educating greyhounds since 1976, but admits it has been in the past 15 years that he has ‘got much better at it’.

In a tribute to Bill Elson and his skills as a master trainer, Chase repeats the Trainer’s Column published back in July 2016:

MARK Partland, who began training only four years ago, has made giant strides with the lead and collar this year.

VETERAN trainer Steve Woods says he lives in one of the ‘most popular greyhound streets’ in Queensland.

SONIA Kempshall, who has battled health issues for many years, is having one of her best seasons with the lead and collar.

Premier Queensland trainer Tony Brett and his wife Fleur are on their dream holiday in Europe. While they are enjoying a very rare break from the day-to-day rigours of greyhound training we thought it would be timely to run the very first Chase Trainers Column, which appeared in our November, 2015, edition.

RUSTY Dillon has just experienced an extremely rewarding Winter Carnival as caretaker trainer of Victorian sprinters Dundee Rebel and Dundee Smokey.

BOBBIE-Jean Chaffey, or BJ as she is known to her friends, is somewhat surprised by her success so far this year.
