I tell you what, this is the definition of courage under some sort of pressure and duress. We've got an announcement, and this is thanks to Greyhound Racing Victoria. We've purchased a greyhound. Right. And it's a female greyhound, and it's going to be trained by Ian Garland, who's one of the great greyhound trainers. Right. And we've named it John from Epping. Right.

40.354 - 45.201 Unknown

So we've got a female greyhound that we're going to call John from Epping. That's right. It's a bitch.

Chapter 2: How did Johnny demonstrate courage despite his back issue?

45.221 - 67.578 Unknown

It's a very well-bred bitch, and it's going to run under the name of John from Epping. Right. We didn't have anything to do with the setup of this, clearly. We probably would have got a male, but we've got a female. Right. Johnny will receive 10% of the winnings. Right. And then what we are going to do in the coming weeks. It's a very good dog too, by the way. It's a very, very sharp.

Chapter 3: What details are shared about the newly purchased greyhound?

67.598 - 73.909 Unknown

Very good dog. We're going to let you know how she's going. Well bred. We're going to follow the form all the way through. Thanks to Greyhound Racing Victoria.

Chapter 4: How is the greyhound named and who will train it?

74.129 - 83.245 Unknown

Ian will give us regular updates and we're going to give away. We're going to give our listeners the chance to cash in on the prize money whispers.

0

83.225 - 87.111 Tim

Okay, so they won't be the owner, but they'll be sharing in the prize money.

0

87.131 - 111.002 Unknown

They'll have all care, no responsibility, and the lucky people we select will get a nice little check every time John from Epping salutes the female dog we've got with trainer Ian Garland. Now, you reckon that's not going to confuse our mate. No, that won't confuse him. No. He's under a bit of pressure at the moment, and we feel for him because he's in a bit of pain. We do.

0

111.263 - 123.34 Unknown

Good enough to take our call just for a minute or two. How are you, mate? Good morning. Good morning, boys. How are you? We're going a little bit better than you, mate. We feel for you. We feel for you. We thank you for jumping on. What about this? You've got 10% of a greyhound.

0

124.079 - 133.989 John from Epping

What I'm going to do with that 10%, if the day comes the dog is going to win, can I give it back to him at day to kneel down at the foundation?

134.93 - 139.515 Tim

Oh, that's the sort of man you are. That is the sort of man you are. You most certainly can.

139.675 - 157.117 John from Epping

I don't want anything. I'm very happy. You know enough about me. And my wish is one day when they have a race, when they start the race, We get together, we go there, and I want to take a photo with the dog.

157.417 - 158.259 Unknown

Ah, beautiful.

Chapter 5: What will Johnny receive from the greyhound's winnings?

158.299 - 168.7 Unknown

That's a great sentiment. Well done to you. So you're a 10% owner and you're donating your winnings to the MND fight. So good on you and how appropriate it is. How are you feeling, old champ? How are you feeling?

0

169.304 - 185.576 John from Epping

I feel just a fraction better. The only thing is when I start walking around the house, I have to go and sit down because my leg is going to get tired and sore, so I have to go and sit down. Once I sit down, I feel not bad. If I walk around, I'm in pain.

0

Chapter 6: How will the listeners be involved with the greyhound's journey?

186.117 - 187.92 Tim

Yeah. You're going to have the operation, John?

0

188.322 - 197.122 John from Epping

Oh, I'm going to go to the specialist next week, and he got the MRI and the report and everything already, so I want to see what he say.

0

197.583 - 205.521 Tim

Okay, you've got a big property there out in Epping too, and who's going to look after the garden for you? Are you able to still get out in the backyard and do your gardening or not?

0

206.378 - 215.047 John from Epping

Oh, I've got no boat at the moment. I have to find someone who can do the garden.

0

215.628 - 216.008 Tim

Big job.

216.108 - 222.655 John from Epping

I'll pay whatever I have to pay and that's it because I don't like my garden to become like a bush, you know.

223.136 - 230.884 Unknown

No, no. Well, someone out in the Epping area who's got a little garden run might be able to help us out here. Just drop in, just give a little tidy up once a week. What do you think?

231.691 - 236.06 John from Epping

Oh, I wouldn't mind. I wouldn't mind at all. That's the way I feel at the moment.

236.201 - 248.367 Unknown

Yeah, I know, because the champ's bedridden at the moment. He can't do any of the stuff that he normally does, and we can hear it in his voice. Even though his kangaroos are going beautifully, what about the wind? That must have got you up.

Chapter 7: What are Johnny's current feelings about his health and situation?

462.886 - 465.232 John from Epping

I don't mind. All right, mate.

0

465.252 - 486.317 Unknown

We'll let you go. We'll let you know what's happening with your greyhound, John from Epping, a female bitch trained by Ian Garland, who, by the way... OK, I hope I'm all right soon, and then we're going to get to tag a nice photo. Yeah, we'll take a nice photo. Don't worry. Greyhound Racing Victoria will get you a nice place at the dining room. 1,100 starts. This is how many dogs Ian's trained.

0

486.678 - 496.935 Unknown

He's had 312 winners. That's a 28% win rate. And 392 places. That's a 63% place rate. So we've got one of the best trainers for your dog, Johnny.

0

496.915 - 506.492 John from Epping

Thank you. Thank you again. I never would have thought something like this would happen. Good on you, Johnny. We'll rest up. Thank you. I appreciate it. Rest up, my friend. What are you doing?

0

506.813 - 509.879 Unknown

We'll talk to you through the week and just take it easy, all right?

510.319 - 513.145 John from Epping

I will. Thank you. John from Epping. Thanks again.

513.165 - 519.396 Unknown

The champ is getting a lot of well wishes sent through here. We'll keep you up to speed with how he's travelling, the big Johnny from Epping.
