DIANE HENRY, the trainer of Ten Large Down, is facing a GBGB inquiry following an incident that took place after her kennel star had been eliminated behind Romeo Reason on Saturday.
Barry Faulkner, newly-appointed GBGB chief executive, yesterday confirmed that "an incident had been reported to the local stewards, and the GBGB would look into the matter this week".
Henry was involved in an on-the-track altercation with a parader as the six greyhounds were being taken back to the kennels.
She said yesterday: "I do admit that emotions were running high after the race. Ten Large Down is a superstar, and he didn't have the chance to shine from trap six after totally missing his break.
"I was confident this boy could have gone all the way, and I was absolutely gutted. Somebody said something -- I think it was along the lines of 'what goes around, comes around', and I reacted. The comments were well out of order. It just seems like people have been wanting to destroy me and the dog ever since we started having a bit of success together.
"As for people on internet forums saying I threw the lead at Ten Large Down at the pick-up, they must be absolutely mad. Yes, I threw the lead down on the track -- I'm a very passionate person -- but not at the dog."
