Premier Greyhound Racing Classic

18 are left at Sunderland for the semi-final stage of the Premier Greyhound Racing Classic. Slingshot Poppy was quickest of the qualifiers from the heats, showing once more how well this track suits her. 10 wins from 11 starts is her record now around Sunderland, with her sole defeat coming in this round of the Classic last year. 


There are a string of early-paced types in here with a number of these having plenty of sprinting open race wins, looking to get clear of their fields early on. There is still Irish interest with Droopys Monk as well as Greyhound of the Year elect Woltemade and Glengar Phantom who has been exceptional sine joining the kennel of Tom Heilbron.


7/4 Slingshot Poppy

9/2 Glengar Phantom

13/2 Droopys Monk, Woltemade

11/1 Grouchos Chief

14/1 Brickhill Tamika

20/1 Ballymac Shontae

22/1 Ropewalk Ranger

40/1 Indian Mist, Rolo Genie

66/1 Arthur Bitter, Arthur Tomato, Millhill May, Pressure Tie, Romeo Astron

100/1 Foukscourt Bono, Romeo Hanyu

150/1 Essjay Mercury

George Curtis & Ballyregan Bob Memorial

This has the potential to be a cracker of a final. Vhagar probably deserves to be the favourite but she probably doesn't have as much in hand over these as a price of 8/11 would suggest. She was only half a length in front of Zenith Boom in the heats and he looked like he was going to pick her up for much of that contest. She went quicker in the semis which is why she has been installed so short. 


Candolim Typhoon is a progressive stayer who brings a serious unbeaten tun into the final. There is no doubt that this is the toughest field that he has encountered, but he is more than capable of stepping up. Malcolm Bosh was a close third in the Premier Greyhound Racing St Leger final and is a big price if reproducing that. 


8/11 Vhagar

3/1 Candolim Typhoon

11/2 Zenith Boom

10/1 Drombeg Flash

28/1 Malcolm Bosh

40/1 Broncos Bullet

SIS Sprint

Monday night will see the final of the SIS Sprint at Harlow, with five railers and one wide runner making the decider. That draws the eye immediately to Sunnyside Ted who is a very natural trapper but he was quickly put in his place after leading in his semi-final. 


As with all sprints, the end result is going to be highly reliant on who comes away best of those five on the inside and how close to the rails are they going to try and move. 


5/4 Headford Sarah

5/2 Bretons Girl

6/1 Lesleys Buddy, Yahoo Megan

10/1 Nightingale Crew, Sunnyside Ted
