I have known Albert for so long i can’t remember exactly. A greyhound man.
He has trained greyhounds for years and we have had a lot of dogs off him, a lot of big money dogs. He had a dog in the last ever race at Askern on the 23rd September and won. This isn’t the dog, this is Cash who was retired several months ago due to a slight injury. He didn’t want to break him or let anything bad happen to him so he fetched him to Tia. It was obviously much easier when we were in Doncaster, he would drop them off on his way to the track. Still, he fetched him over 400 miles as he knows that he will be well looked after.
I’ll miss seeing Albert and some of the other trainers that I used to take dogs off, but some I will be pleased, never to set eyes on again.
