Betting update – Coral Sussex Cup and PGR Regency at finals at Hove

Following on from the semi-finals of both competitions, let's take a look at the betting markets ahead of the final that takes place on Saturday evening on Gone To The Dogs – Live!

The Premier Greyhound Racing Regency semi-finals on Saturday evening saw Garfiney Blaze (41.57), Art Riddler (41.56) and Mongys Wild (41.12) winning the heats, with Droopys Invent, Romeo Empire and Bombay Nutty also booking their places in the Category One final worth £20,000 to the winner. 

PGR Regency final (Coral) 

Mongys Wild 2/5, Romeo Empire 6, Garfiney Blaze 6, Bombay Nutty 10, Art Riddler 16, Droopys invent 50. 

Romeo Empire looks well-drawn in T2 and the Patrick Janssens-trained February 2023 son of Romeo Magico would be a runner on the bunny. All eyes will then be on where Mongys Wild turns, if he’s within striking distance its race on. Bombay Nutty is yet to ping the lids over this six-bend 695-metre trip, he looks well-drawn out in T6 with Droopys Invent heading for the rails from T5. If Nutty pops out, he could be the value in the race. 

Coral Sussex Cup final at Hove 

The £10,000 to the winner Category One Coral Sussex Cup final also takes centre stage on Saturday evening, streamed on Gone To The Dogs – Live!

The semi-finals were won by Proper Heiress (29.57), Quill Quids (30.54) and Queen Shakira in 30.23. Chelms Bear, Ower Mystery and Slick Sentinel all qualified and line up in an ultra-competitive final.

All eyes on the break, if Proper Heiress brings his trapping boots, he will prove hard to beat in his bid to land another Category One success. Slick Sentinel is a class act and has a chance from T6. Chelms Bear could attract support at 8s. He was a recent 3 Steps To Victory finalist at Sheffield and running he’s at the top of his game for trainer Craig Morris.
