Veteran Trainer Walks Fine After Cocaine Incident

A veteran greyhound trainer avoided a ban after his dog tested positive for cocaine, receiving only a $300 fine from the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal. Despite GRV’s appeal for a stricter penalty, Vcat sided with leniency, noting Dalton had already stepped away from racing and suffered reputational damage. The decision comes amid alarming data: 30 greyhounds have died in or after races in Victoria this year alone. GRV respects the ruling but remains committed to upholding integrity and animal welfare in the sport. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
