Post by: necroscope on September 12, 2010, 02:49:58 PM
I'm planning to name one of my greyhounds after pinball,best i can come up with is pinball magic, the naming rules are
Names with more than sixteen characters inclusive of spaces, apostrophes,numbers and more than three words are not allowed
i would of used aussie pinball forum but unfortuntly it's too long.

Hi Necroscope, Great to hear of another greyhound person in the forum.
I like Marty J's suggestion of "INSERT COIN". ^^^
I have shares in a dog. Hopefully having his first run in a few weeks.

hi bruce,glad to see you have one about to race mate,you'll have to let us know when it's running,and what it's name is,i study the breeding as well and enjoy watching different dogs race it is especially interesting when you have seen their parents and grandparents ect race as well.i reckon INSERT COIN and SPECIAL WHEN LIT are guaranteed to be chosen,i get to send in 5 names per dog and the greyhound register chooses the name.

I'd like to see a name that can only be a pinny?

But I DO like Special When Lit & Insert Coin...

Only prob with "Insert Coin" - it's written on everything from a car-wash to a condom vending machine?  #@#

Don't use "Pinball" - it's embarrassing if ever your greyhound gets knocked around in the race.

My suggestion is the name "Sling Shot" - Fast, Explosive and Uncontrollable!!

How about Aussie Pinball? I am surprised no-one has mentioned it yet.

Or how about:

Zipper Flipper
Wedge Head
SS Flipper (or Top Flipper)
PF Spinner (or some variation of this)

Yep reckon i've got enough names to name a litter of dogs,some good names there too,after 20 years you tend to run out of names,and i will see if i can get a real good one for the name Aussie pinball  and name the rest of the litter with the other names so when people see them racing they will think of pinballs  ()

Hi Necroscope,
My dogs name is 'Catch Pedro's Son' (I'm in a syndicate, I didn't get to name him). Troy Sharpe is the trainer at Brisbane.
He's fast (sure....they all say that.lol), just having a bit of trouble turning the corner. They cut one of his nuts off a month ago, it wasn't hanging properly, it was bothering him.
He is out of Where's Pedro & Dynamic Princess.
We are hoping to have his first start at Casino Oct 17 - Pop Northfield Maiden Series. $7000 winner.
But if he's not handling the tighter Qld tracks, he will move to Victoria.
Will keep you informed.
Cheers

Thats quite a common problem having a raised testicle,9 out of 10 dogs improve by lengths when getting that operation,defiently would have affected his cornering ability,where's pedro is a great sire too mate we just mated a bitch called old tears to him and are planning to mate him to another of our bitches called quidame as soon as she is in season,good luck with him mate i'm sure now after the op he should handle the two turns quite well.sounds like he is in good hands too ^^^ ben

Eddy the One Nut Greyhound "Catch Pedro's Son", finally made it to the racetrack. Debuted at Ipswich, won his first start #*#. Awesome. Cleaned up at the TAB.
Next 2 starts got bashed around like a pinball at the start, finished 7th, then last, 8th. Costin me some. Oh well, the highs & lows :lol . All good fun though.
Next start again tomorrow at Ipswich. See if he can get a good start.

Catch Pedros Son came in first and paid $5 for the win at the TAB.

Wish I had more than $5 on it to win!

Didn't see the race, did he do it easy?

Well done bayview and congrats on the wins ^^^ I'm sure we will be seeing him race through the grades in the city as he obviously has the ability,i wouldnt be too woried about the couple of unplaced he is probably learning to race.our dogs often make silly mistakes when they first start racing  ()

here is a link to a post on greyhound data where someone else noticed his win http://www.greyhound-data.com/knowledge.php?b=4&note=299850&order=&x=123
