Ballarat to host bumper Pink Diamond Finals Night

Australia’s richest regional greyhound series, the $1.175M Pink Diamond series for Vic Bred greyhounds, will conclude with a massive finals night at Ballarat on 17 June, in a huge coup for the local region.

Pink Diamond finals night – which will incorporate 12 feature finals across a range distances for greyhounds of various abilities – was originally slated for Warragul, however that club is unavailable for racing on that particular weekend.

Open exclusively to Victorian bred greyhounds, the Pink Diamond series will incorporate a boost of almost $300,000 in prize money and breeder bonuses in 2022.
