Arena Racing Company Scurry Cup Ante Post 

The sprinters take centre stage on Friday, October 10, at Dunstall Park for the start of the ARC Scurry Cup over the two-bend 270-metre trip. First run at Clapton Stadium in 1928, the Scurry Cup is a Category Two competition with £7500 up for grabs. 

Over the years, the competition has moved around with Clapton, Slough, Catford, Belle Vue, Harlow and Perry Barr all hosting the Category Two competition. Sponsors of the event have included Brake Brothers, British Greyhound Breeders Forum, BAPP Group of Companies and more recently Arc since 2021. 

Previous notable winners include Drumcove Lad in 2011, Walshes Hill in 2016 and Rioja Oisin in 2024. Oisin is back to defend his crown. Can the Kevin Hutton-trained May 2022 son of Droopys Sydney go back-to-back? 

Ante post betting is available with all major bookmakers. Shadow Storm heads the market at 10/3 with bet364 with defending champion Rioja Oisin next in at 13/2 with William Hill.

As ever, it’s imperative to shop around for the best prices on offer, especially for those who play each way. Longarces Lad, for example, is a 14s chance with bet365 and William Hill but on offer at 25s with Ladbrokes, Coral and Paddy Power. Born Racer is a 14s chance with Skybet and Paddy Power but more than double that at 33s with Ladbrokes and Coral. Crokers Harry backers should head to Ladbrokes for the 80s on offer. The Rose Draper trained railer is only a 40s chance with bet365, Unibet and William Hill. 

Get down to the Wolverhampton venue, Dunstall Park, on Friday, October 10, for some high-speed action as some of the top two-bend performers clash on what is sure to be a thrilling night's action.
