Monday's Greyhound Racing Tips - 10 November

Premier Greyhounds Eclipse Heats

The Premier Greyhounds Eclipse is normally one of the top Category Ones of the year, and despite there being just the 30 runners, the quality is there once more. 

Heat One 

Chelms Bear headlines the opening heat. The reigning Birmingham Cup champion bids for a second autumn Category One triumph at the track. Droopys Suprstar was a little disappointing at this track last Monday but he has a better draw to work from, sporting the red jacket. He has five wins and four seconds in nine starts when he has been drawn on the inside in the past. 

Droopys Poker is the best drawn dog in the race as the sole seeded runner, with four railers inside of him. Droopys Bookem in trap four is probably as tight as railer in the race as there is, so Droopys Poker could be a spot of each way value at 15/2 in the hope that he comes away.

Heat Two

Droopys Aladdin got the better of Newinn Oscar in a trial stake for this competition last week but they will be under pressure from Kilmore Dancer to their outside early on. Although he has his quirks, he is close to the best in the country over this sort of a trip when he is on his game and that is going to make him a big player. Droopys Aladdin gets the nod at 4/6 with Kilmore Dancer to chase him home.

Heat Three

This should be a fascinating tussle between the inside pair, Elusivenomore and Hopes Ompaloompa. The draw just favours the former given he is on the inside and has won four of his six career starts when he has been clad in red. The latter is a very smart performer himself and is going to be ensure that the 5/4 favourite is kept up to his work. Brinkleys Louis is yet to win at this track but he has shown some solid form here.

Heat Four

Hard to get away from Proper Heiress in heat four but at 1/9 best price, it is easy enough to leave this as a no bet contest. He ought to beat this field all ends up as the price suggests with Raebella Bullet looking a clear second best arriving off the back of finishing third in the Premier Greyhound Racing Oaks with the other pair both outsiders.

Heat Five

The market has this down as a two dog heat with Pain Barrier and Gary The Arb hard to split in the market. The former has hit form with a vengeance in recent weeks, a hugely impressive winner at Dunstall Park on Oaks final night, while the latter is one of the most consistent and solid performers in the country. 

It might not be quite as simple as that, however, with the fast starting Honour Bach in red inside the pair and the strong-running Ballymac Sergie in four. Tom Heilbron's charge is more than capable over a stiff four bends as his recent 28.50 Newcastle win shows and he might just be a spot of value at 11/2 for those who want to oppose the top pair.

Heat Six

The final heat of the Premier Greyhound Racing Eclipse sees Zenith Tanju as the hot market leader. He was a Derby finalist when known as Sole Mio, and although he was only fourth on his Nottingham debut last week in a trial stake for this competition, this is a much softer race than that one, making most appeal at 8/11. Carrick Scholsey is a very decent type himself, finishing third in the Irish Derby Plate final when last seen in race action at the end of September.
