It was after 8pm in regional Tasmania when a three-year-old greyhound, Sherry Cask, ran what would be her last race.

Race 11 on June 9, 2025, in Launceston.

It starts like every other race that night: seven dogs bolt from the box and hit the track.

Not long after the first bend, tragedy strikes.

The collision has been edited out from the race replay video by Tasracing.

WARNING: This story contains images that may cause distress for some readers.

A post-race veterinary examination of Sherry Cask revealed a suspected fracture in her left shoulder blade, and the greyhound was stood down from racing for six months.

Sherry Cask never returned to the track and is "now listed as retired," Tasmanian Greens MLC, Cassy O'Connor said.

Race videos with injuries, death not uploaded

Sherry Cask is just one of dozens of greyhounds injured this year.

Typically, after every greyhound race, a replay video is uploaded on the Tasracing website, but if there is a crash or an injury, the file is not uploaded.

It is these hidden races that, up until now, the Tasmanian public has not been able to see.

Tasracing said in a statement that "it does not believe it should broadcast incidents when racing animals fall or are injured" and "this has been its practice since 2011".

"It is not a position restricted to the greyhound code, but all codes of racing."

Under Tasmania's right-to-information laws, the Greens obtained the missing race videos.

"These are the videos Tasracing has tried to hide from everyday Tasmanians, and there's a reason for that.

"You see these beautiful dogs come barrelling out of the boxes. They get into a pack, obviously running very, very fast, and in multiple races you have dogs tumbling, dogs obviously breaking … and this is a week-on-week occurrence."

Race replay videos are available on some betting websites, but only for a few days after the race, before being removed.

Those sites require an account and are not always free, unlike the Tasracing site.

Races show dogs being trampled, dying from injuries

Forty videos from the past year that have not been uploaded, which the ABC has now watched, show dozens of dogs being injured and trampled.

One video shows what happens when the greyhounds catch the lure and swarm in a frenzy.

Others had deadly consequences.

In race 3 in Hobart on May 1, 2025, Quiet Lakes fell in the back straight and fractured her left thigh bone and front leg elbow.

The black Tasmanian greyhound was four years old and died at the track.

It was a similar story for Perfect Shadows, which fell in race 1 in Hobart on January 23 last year.

Not long into the race, the two-year-old fractured her left hock, which is the joint that connects the shin bones to the bones of the paw.

She died a few days later.

In April this year, in race 10 in Launceston, Wellington Salix fell on the home turn and fractured her right hock.

She was stood down from racing for 90 days.

Many of the videos show races where one greyhound has fallen and had a domino effect on others in the field, causing significant injuries.

Race 3 in Launceston on December 30, 2025, saw four dogs fall while approaching the turn out of the back straight.

Injuries ranged from "spike wounds" to the left hock and abrasions to the body.

A month prior in Launceston on November 25, race 6 left greyhound Deadly Stride with a fractured left scapula after several fell after the first turn.

And on October 28, in race 2 in Launceston, half the field was impacted when Wings of Robert fractured his left foreleg mid-race.

The release of the videos has renewed questions about the racing industry's transparency and why these videos were not uploaded as standard practice.

"Tasracing has been wilfully hiding that footage because they know that if people saw more of those injuries, the whole argument would be over," Ms O'Connor said.

A Tasmanian government bill to ban greyhound racing is on hold in the Legislative Council.

The Labor opposition opposes it, and the government is not confident it will be supported by enough upper house independents to pass.

"The future of the greyhound racing industry is very uncertain," Ms O'Connor said.

Tasracing said in a statement that it publishes in its annual report "comprehensive greyhound on track injury data, greyhound retirement data and greyhound breeding data".

"Tasracing also publishes GAP (Greyhounds as Pets) statistics in terms of the number of greyhounds that enter the program and the number of greyhounds adopted," a spokesperson said.

"Harness and thoroughbred retirement data is also included in Tasracing's annual report."
