Unlicensed racing tracks known as flapping tracks are concerned with one thing gambling over animal welfare.

"Four-year-old flyer Tristar was caught with the Class A party drug in his system after blowing away rivals on the track. Tristar was caught with the Class A drug in his system. The substance, which can boost performance, was discovered in a urine sample taken before he stormed to victory at the Shawfield track in Rutherglen, near Glasgow. But despite fining trainer William Rae, 70, a disciplinary hearing ruled the bizarre case a “mystery” and let him keep his licence."

People do awful things to dogs in general and greyhounds in particular. Especially painful when you get to know how sweet of nature they are.

Edit: Rutherglen actually the only licensed track in Scotland. Just imagine what goes on at those other tracks if this dude can keep his racing license.
