big mike and droopys cain very impressive tonite, im off to bed
was i bit worried with tbm at 2nd but showed his class, thank god
. droopys cainwas so impressive, blanco may not be top draw but when leading takes a good dog to come from behind him,hes a dog to keep on the right side of over 550

'The Bank Of Big Mike' is open again 
I didn't see 1 coming away like that (1.94 sectional) but knew once Mike closed down the back he would win the race.
Droopys Cain has stunning pace, you'd have a slight worry about him to the corner and getting around without bother but once he does he fairly takes off. I can't wait to see him over 550y.

Cain looked beaten entering the back straight but ran an absolute stormer to catch the trail-blazing Blanco, no mug.
Priceless Spark flew out. Always holding Fridays Carroll and won on merit.

Looking at some of the dogs in the Larry dunne coupled with the betfair 600 and the irish dogs performences in the early rounds of the english derby we are in for some Irish derby this year..
We have indeed Wood, decent heat for both of them to qualify
I've got Bling Bling Buzz fav for that heat ahead of Swift Marathon and then Skywalker Puma.
PF, how did BB Buzz run last night, the video is not on the Igb?
He ran well i thought, not much to say to be honest he done everything right. I thought the 2nd ran a cracker too but can see him encountering the same problems this week and Buzz be gone.
On my travels there i decided to stop at a PP and have a few quid on Skip Soda @ 28/1. I thought he ran a blinder in defeat Saturday night, he absolutely walked from boxes but showed decent gears up before finding trouble on the bend. He absolutely took off down the back only to find more bother at the 3rd. He has a good draw in the next round and with a better break he can make that price look very big.
only problem there is that skip soda walked from traps in his previous race too, a bit worrying
Droopys cain may not win the Larry dunne but i will be looking out for a good price come irish derby time, i was very impressed on sat night with him.
No bookie had priced him before his first win in Shelbourne, despite being asked.
No bookie priced him before Saturday night either.
I see he is now top price 16/1. He would have been at least double those odds a few weeks ago if placed in the market.
No sign of Airforce Diva in any market either. It is a dreadful service.

Yeah that grates on me too, they don't have dogs quoted and then when you request a price they put them in silly short 
MESSI’S RACING CAREER AT AN END
02/05/2012
Brilliant young prospect Kingsmill Messi sustained a very serious injury at Shelbourne Park on Saturday night and is very unlikely to ever run again.
Owned jointly by Barntown father-son team of Aidan and John Roche, Kingsmill Messi was of the top young dogs in training last year after a scintillating unbeaten run through the Future Stars Unraced Stake at Enniscorthy in October.
Too old for the National Puppy Stake, the October ’09 son of Head Bound and Lunar Vacation was put by for the winter and had his return held-up by a slight injury. He had caught the eye with a brilliant return run in second behind Ballymac Vic last Saturday week at Shelbourne and flew into the third bend in the first round of the Larry Dunne Open on Saturday. However he faded badly up the straight and it was obvious that something was amiss.
Aidan Roche confirmed yesterday that the dog has a very serious wrist injury and is unlikely to be seen on a track again.
very disappointing

Question:: Why is Tyrur Big Mike not odds on tonight??
Again he has a great draw, Minefield in 3 will edge rails and does not have the pace up of Big Mike. Sparta Maestro in 5 can't match Mike to the corner either so basically he traps, goes up leads around and wins. Loughteen Blanco would be better drawn off the rail in my opinion.

Bet365 now the only firm with the four heats priced up and they revised their betting to include the two reserves. Paddys have taken the SPK card now and Boyles don't look interested in pricing at all? Any value in the prices? I was interested in Hillcroft Joe at 10/1 with Paddys, but of course they're down now..
Skip Soda interested me when Priceless Spark was a runner, problem is i can see Droopys Cain leading up Tyrur Lanney and if leading the inside or following the top around he'll be too strong in all probability.
Tyru Big Mike @ 11/10 was way too big for me, i had him in 4/6.
Skywalker Puma looks a fair price at 4s.

Skywalker Puma looks a fair price at 4s.
Do you think? He is short of EP in a race where both the top and bottom have plenty. Probably a touch too big but not enough to tempt me in. Hillcroft Joe 16/1 too big.
Yeah he doesn't have great pace up but i think the race could be run to suit, a lot of pace up and they may not get loose. If the bottom gets loose he wins but @ 7/4 he can do so, same with the top at his price. I was impressed with Puma last week in defeat but with his running style he could end up a dog that looks impressive in defeat a lot.
Paddy Power LAYED my bets on Tyrur Big Mike @ 11/10 but now have refunded me the money for some reason?? Waiting to get onto them on live chat, this should be interesting
The whole card is gone down for SPK. This will be a good one, there is no non runners that we know of in that race. I am on live chat myself with them looking to find out where the prices are gone. Hopefully i will get to talk to someone within the next few hours. I am 104 in the queue!
I'm waiting on live chat too, no. 78. I'm not expecting much of a reason from them though to be honest so will more than likely be ringing them too.
you should be ashamed of yourself taking advantage of them (11/10)you knew it was wrong
Now the money has gone back out of my account and where it said the bet was settled as VOID is pending again and the bet seemingly back on.
They don't read the forums though
They are still a bunch of cants!!!

Got it sorted now he better win now after all that

Yeah seen that. Would like to see them price the first two heats as well though, likewise Boyles. Looks like it was a technical fault where your bet was voided. Do you not think Hillcroft Joe is too big at 16's, PF? Don't see how he could be a bigger price than Minefield for example!
I put him in @ 12/1, as you say ahead of Minefield and Harbour Watch. Once he can trap in front of Loughteen Blanco which he is well capable off he could lead up on the fence. Obviously you'd be hoping Big Mike makes a balls of the start but 16s is on the big side
He led to the bend lat week before having his heels clipped and stays this strongly.
Powers still have Priceless Spark and Fridays Carroll in the two heats tonight, which are still sp only. FFS what are they at? Talk about a rag tag organisation. Bet365 had it all re-priced before 11am.
Why haven't Betfair got the Larry Dunne heats on here? The Betfair 600 are here. Is there a way to ask them to add? What with the new agreement they have with the IGB and all you would hope they would have a good few more races if not all off the SPK card..
They had the whole card up on the night of the 1st round of the 600 however the amounts matched probably led to them not bothering.
Heat 1: €2,150
Heat 2: €1,564
Heat 3: no betting due to NR
Heat 4: €4,660
Heat 5: €2,273
Heat 6: €4,116
The other races on the night had pennies matched, no idea how much was matched last week. I've asked for markets quite a few times but got told once there is not enough interest in it, i didn't buy that excuse but perhaps the numbers back that up.

Can they not see it is going to take a while to get going. It must be persevered with as it has huge potential. I don't see what they have to lose putting it up even with small initial margins, is it really that much hassle to them? They will be making money on it regardless. How do you contact them?
Boyles have the first two heats priced up now on their site but minus the two reserves that have come in??

Ladbrokes not streaming SPK. It says on their website they will and usually they do don't they?
Good call on Skywalker Puma, PF. I like the dog a lot just didn't fancy him tonight at his price but you were spot on.
All the credit goes to Dave who works on the track, Droopys Hutton when knocked over turned back and ran full spped up the home straight the wrong way. The leaders where turning the 3rd bend when Twist jumped on the track grabbed Droopys Hutton and thankfully for me we got a result.
Big Mike beaten but sure these things happen, they all charged the boxes and then he stumbled leaving them. I thought he ran a blinder as did Saprta Maestro.

Buzz fancied taking a bite out of Puma's trailing leg, should be warned off! Happy my pair Swift Marathon and saver Big Mike still in there pitching
Huge early on the inside in the 2nd heat, the bottom has a great draw if he can come away from the box, there is a huge run in him (may not be in this comp but he'll take off some night). Big Mike wouldn't want to do what he did Saturday night, he seemed to break fine and then just stumble.
The ist semi looks a match and i'd saide with the better drawn of them.

Yeah, looking at Cain and Maestro to go with my Panther and Sand for Derby. Step up in trip can only produce even better. Just hope Marathon sneaks through Saturday.
Re-Big Mike, you dont want Buzz snapping at his heels
Re-Big Mike, you dont want Buzz snapping at his heels
Bling Bling Buzz is of no worry to me re Big Mike's chances. The only slight worry i have is the brilliant early inside him but even at that Mike stays middle, middle to wide on the bend so it should not prove that much of a problem. The only way Buzz will get near him is if Mike misses it (or something happens like Saturday) but that is a rare occurance.
i like to Analyze heat by heat where there might be value [re oddschecker] cant say i have done that in the Larry Dunne...I have been very impressed with DR CAIN but the value is gone now ...if there is anyone out there in greyhound land with a value bet on the Larry dunne i would Appreciate it . TY frank
There is no value left in the A/P market now in my opinion, i said i think there is a huge run in Skip Soda and he has a good draw but he is not trapping and will find it tough to qualify if missing it again. I'd wait and see how the price up the semi finals.
AS i thought P.F. , TX FOR YOUR REPLY..... IM ON MY OUT FOR A FEW HOURS GAMBLING, I LIKE KING EDMUND IN THE 5.55 AT EXTER HOPE I CAN GET 4/1.
Frank, if youre looking for a bet on the Larry Dunne, i would put up 3/1 Tyrur Big Mike. Like PF said, he's not usually tardy away and few can go to the bend with him. Come the final, Cain and Maestro would do well to catch him, unless he eases on the bends. I only got 5/1 at the start anyway, so 3/1 now looks fair enough
Tx m8 I will take on board what you said, just back from a days gambling ...hugh taylor [at the races] put up Alpha Tauri in the 3.45 at Sth as his nap today and it romped in at 7/1[ worth a look] so i had a good day ,KING EDMUND IN THE 5.55 AT EXTER Was my own nap but only 2nd. ..just checking oddschecker and Mike is 3/1 with P.P.... EVEN if he does,nt win he owe,s me nothing.Tx again.
Youre welcome. Yeah, you could do far worse. We all know he's still a very fast dog and running better nowadays. Only beaten last time coz of a mediocre start. If starting in customary manner, will take plenty of reeling in. Assuming he qualifies for the final, he ought to be in the prime position, bowling along in front and although Cain and Maestro have great fire-power, hopefully, the bird will have flown!
What are your opinions on how the semis will be priced, PF? Particularly the semis. I think the first one will be straight forward and there will be no real value but there could be errors made pricing the second one. I wonder what price Bling Bling Buzz will be after his exploits last week.
Not sure why that first word has come out like that! All i used was the full name for Boyles.
None of their prices interest me, think they have it pretty much right
You would have Sparta Maestro favourite over Droopys Cain? I think i would have it the other way round with Cain having a slow starter inside him and Maestro not certain to lead.
50/1
11/8
8/1
40/1
11/8
100/1
100%, was how i priced it. I thought they would have had Droopys Cain favourite too, bit peeved as was hopeful of getting 13/8+ Sparta.
I actually want to be with Sparta Maestro over Cain due to Swift Marathon drawn on his outside. I think Swift Marathon can lead Cain with a good start. Lanney in 4 will edge inwards run up which should leave Sparta to get a nice run up once he traps decent.

I think Cain is too big at 6/4 and will be backing that. Even if Swift Marathon leads him up as is likely, provided he gets a clear run he will pick him off.
Happy if Marathon just qualifies at this stage, then who knows in the final. Still think saver Big Mike the most likely outright winner though
Good to see some prices about. Have Ladbrokes totally gave up on Irish racing? I wouldn't be surprised to see Big Mike knocked out tonight.

Never ever been able to get Big Mike right. Fluffed his lines again, sorry about the bum-steer Frank. Didnt bok you anyway PF, was only my saver. I backed Marathon ante-post but hard task again against Cain in final. Anyway, after the Dolores treble at Wimbledon last night, you should be able to take a little blooded nose. . I had said never again Big Mike, but renaged. Back to not touching it with a barge pole now!

NO problem Wood..KINGO winning made it a great night for me.. i would.nt give up on MIKE just yet.
I'm siding with Sparta Maestro in the final. Again i think he is the better drawn and he was unlucky not to turn 2nd in the semi final only for Mister Glenard checking off wide at the bend and baulking him. Droopys Cain at that stage had basically the whole field in front of him but railed well to miss all the trouble and end up 2nd off the 2nd. Once getting clear he was absolutely majestic but i also felt Sparta Maestro recovered well from the bang. Everything will be looking rails here bar Sparta Maestro and with a good break he could get the run of the race as Cain will probably have a wall of railers in front of him. If he gets loose of course i'm worried but on the draw Sparta Maestro looks the better bet to me.
That's your chance Woody, whichever leads between Marathon, Flandys and Buzz will be hoping for a pile up. Buzz still could pull up or do anything though
how to win an irish comp, get knocked out twice come in as reserve for final. u couldnt make it up

Good call again with Sparta. Cain came away better than usual but got squeezed. Nice 
2 brilliant dogs in that final, the race didn't go perfectly but the draw still won the day with Maestro staying out at the 3rd bend and sweepeing to the front.
may as well give ye some of the trials from last night:
Tyrur McGuigan 28.68
Subway Ruth 28.56 (2.07sec)
Tyrur Sugar Ray 28.32 (2.13)
Smoke Pixie 28.41
Airforce Diva 28.42

That looks like a real good effort from Sugar Ray, defo looks a dog to stay on the right side of. Was very impressed by Smoke Pixie too when she won the Cork Oaks recently.
