GOLDEN SPRINT

Thought there was another thread? First impression Cluxton's a bit young and better with longer run-up?

cluxton free did  24.41 3.75 - 40
bloanco did 24.48 3.66 -40

going and that, pretty avarege times

bereal did 24 dead on normal going

draper dog did 24.40 few weeks ago walked in the market (25/1) than did the yarmouth clock (now 10/1) befor coral book closed

where know very soon whats in whats out

http://t.co/1GTS0NMTci

link above is the draw

would of liked the prices out befor the draw was made!
things i like be 4-6 points shorter with draw done now
there going to be ist bend trouble! with the sort of pace thats init!

Looks a good nights racing. Very competitive

Loner draw ok the winner for me
Lil risky everyone should have a saver on it

Dont worry Fatty. Think most dogs wont be much shorter and wide open, will get more mileage out of the betting when all priced up. Got 12/1 Loner and wouldnt swop her

Yes wood, I think we've always rated loner, nice 12s, I'm on at 10s. Will play another runner, better get studying lol

From what i've scanned, no Bonamassa Rocks (already engaged in a competition), Your A Champ (runs Hove Thursday), Rio Torino and Ballymac Jones

Oddschecker not got a full list from coral !
what a mess !
365 step up !!

nice comp with some great heats. loving Monty but missed the prices last week, sit and watch I reckon

very hard comp wont bet nothing from start only have to miss the break a fraction and your be in trouble

Two bets so far only small ones
40/1 Sharon's return ! thought it was big
Courts ad nina 100/1 I thought she would not be far off her bro monty he fav in places
Season ripe too fancy one more waiting 16/1' or bigger

I watched some vids last night and have backed Droopy Loner

Lol bet£3.65 max could have on is £62.50 on golden sprint. A/p

That may be because there's no trader there that can be bothered to consider a steak above an automated limit

Great competition with loads of super-fast dogs taking part.

Got a few Derby dogs in Golden Sprint but all small bets at fancy prices: Loner, Barracuda, Santiago and Blanco. Hoping for some good displays from them, after all Blonde Snapper successfully took the same route to Derby glory.

Got 12/1 Loner only for this competition though and think will still be tight at the top of the market next round, so going to see how far Loner takes me. If i had to add another at this stage, could consider 10/1 Ayamzaman. As fast as anything over c/d when breaking and the most likely dog to be in the hat next round, imo

Is this also the Rommers thread for tonight? may as well be.

Whilst temptinmg to follow addy and gwladys over a cliff after last nights rompo at Hove, I wont. As said, love Borna Monty but wont play, even if 13-8 beats the sp.

One to oppose for me has to be Glanmire Lad. If he wins at 5-4, so be it, but I wasnt that impressed with the win two runs ago and whilst he stumbled last time, he does have it to do to get clear of Mottos and Rio who can fly to the corner. If he does his 3.55 okay, but I'll take the chance and oppose him with both of those at the prices, either of whom will lead the inside duo. 7-1 and 5-1 look fair to me. If the going somehow looks mad outer, couldnt rule out Seamus's other dog getting a dream run....tell you what may mix them up in fc's too

Going to lay both mark wallis dogs
Bor monty on fire but may find a bump or two going up
8.34 race cux free a wide runner first race here the black rose thing stop last week gl to any one punting that
Little on 1and 3
Lil risky on a/p will run well
Top up loner  gl boys

Someone said on here recently that they would never back a decent middle distance greyhound against an out and out sprinter. OK so they would never have got Blonde Snapper, but does this statement hold true usually ? Tonight there are several examples of this happening, just wondering what others think .

Irish, what do you reckon if Barra keeps getting through. Would make him short to beat anything over 2 bends and may act as spoiler for a lot of these ep types, yet they stay and he may not. A Countdown conundrum to be sure, especially as the decent 400m dogs can run 3.60 splits, he probably would never do that consistently enough to win each time yet rushinmg up could do anything.

Its a hard event this, no matter how good. Oh for the days when King Oscar was 9-2 ap....

Same here, I haven't got a clue but fancy barra tbh DML, I think you normally end up going for what you have seen with your own eyes. Youngy has one tonight that can pop out, very impressed with Glanmire's start when he gets it right, leaning towards Oscar and Pam's depending on value because they are old hands at sprint distances. Really in a quandary over most of the races, the video boys should be quids in if they know which way most of those go from the traps.

was not going to bet a dog at the start of the comp but looking at the draws tonight got to bet ayamzaman got a easy heat on paper so has to get shorter with me when it gets thru tonight.going to lay borna monty and loner

Antepost
Droopys loner 10/1, 8/1 win
Airforce allstar 66/1 ew
Dusseldorf 25/1 ew

Also like these for small stakes
Rhino 4/1
Layin glanmire and barracuda

Good nights racing, be lucky

WISH I SAW THAT 10/1 TUNNEL TIGER PRICE

COURTS AD NINA
SPARTA BAMA

ONLY BETS

ante post bets

king nicky at 80/1 with 3.65
rio minstel at 40/1 with fred

good luck all

7.31 2/1 Slick Sleek got the draw and may only have T6 to beat.
10.26 5/4 Smiler Jack. Cost me last time but will surely start better tonight.
10.40 6/4 Aero Rebel. Proved she runs the track and trip could suit her better than Swift.
Treble pays about 13/1 .

Interested in the final, 9.24 8/1 Ardmayle Player each-way, on the premise think the odds on fav was  flattered by margin of victory in the heats.

Good luck!

21.06 Baileys Quest, allsop dog, too big at 14-1 billies and 365,Thurles pup, a bit quick out the boxes, will give the 4 a race, hasn't even started its career over here yet , except for winning an open hove (T1) sprint in which he was crowded and led 1. Not sure about the rails suiting him but he'll be thereabouts at the first bend.

Glenadda Magic for me later at Romford, right trap, pruhs runner, got the c v, would like 6's please

Silly betting from Stan James. Farloe Barracuda doesnt normally trap like that and Slick Santiago can ping. Seen them race a few times at Sheffield and can promise you, not a gulf like 13/8 and 20/1 in their capabilities. Santiago would win much more than Droopys Loner now anyway

Slick 0-5 at Romford
Wrong track IMO
he can trap but don't think he as the early for Essex!

In two minds weather to back rodge!

Santiago's trial shows he can run and fly the track. Would normally do a 3.60 odd split, fast enough to go with most. Rate this dog highly.

Sole trails woody they all fly !
dogs on either side didn't matter!

Diffent matter!

I know Fatty. Just dont think it a 20/1 chance. We will see

S James couldnt and wouldnt lay a decent sized turf of grass.

But looking at the odds being bandied about I reckon Baracuda could be a tasty lay outright come Friday early evening

1 Droopys Loner
2 Farloe Barracuda
3 Garryglass Rodge
4 Farkland Tyson
5 Mottos Impact
6 Glanmire Lad

Rodge turns left and clouts Barracuda at tins, leaving them both struggling. Can Mottos continue his super form? Hoping not and Loner pings to land the prize. Any other scenarios you would like to post?

Rodge pings he takes out the inside 2

5 and 6 look the value to me on the draw

Not sure Mottos will be value though PF. He will be priced on his career-best semi victory and Glanmire struggling to peak, but now's the time to do it. Will be surprised if Barracuda wins. More his kind of break last night, flies to the bend, the longer the better really but cant see him missing Rodge. Loner not totally without hope

5/1 is fair enough if you ask me for Mottos, whichever of 5 and 6 lead will get a solo in my opinion.

Mottos has smasehd out twice. It was actually a better break than the fgav last week but was overshadowed by the media thinking it was a 'shock' result. proved he can trap again last night and has more improvement in him than the rest of the field. Will be tough but Lonber could hold up FB inside. Agree 5s is fair

For me mottos was as good as anything first time 10/1 was barking to my mind but he looks like 3 or 4 is he's best traps strong over this trip go well in the derby for me

will he come away from 5 ? Not out the smash boxs  4/3 where he done biz o
He edge in as well
think lad got the best draw by far

mottos was 30's on here first time and 18's last night, unreal value lads

Yeah and people saying he's got a bad draw. It's only one slot to the right of his semi box where he was hugely impressive. Rooting for Loner but think maybe only a pinger from Barracuda, more unlikely than likely, may stop Mottos. If repeating semi effort, 5/1 would look stupid with hindsight

One step to right means so much at Romford woody
I try not back anythink In that box !
that is a huge price lad 7-1 6-1 5-1

Point taken Fatty but Mottos doing consistent 3.60 splits and should do that again in the final, putting him bang there with every chance?

Had to cover on glam lad @.7 mottos@6  how some make 2 odds on nuts I will lay it till it hurts can't have. It at on draw

loner has a bit more in the locker imho

Rodge in smash box out trap 2 and 1
Than smash them to bits that's all I can see in this final
456 fc tc will be the play

Rodge never won out of anything other than the one box so far in its short career, he does miss the break now and then but has been known to recover once from a poor start over here, he's got the ping box but barracuda has the better sectionals. I think rodge will move left, hit barracuda and this might allow loner up the inside to fight it out with mottos. Mottos is a great price and represents value, lets hope everyone ignores him again !, You never know in this game but I'd rather be on one that's been there seen it and done it rather than a good young 'un, even though there are some great young 'uns in this line up.

its an interesting race to price as there are a lot of ways the race could be run

as for the argument that droopys loner has done well out of the draw, well look at what 3 did to golden wonder at yarmouth, practically had it over the fence, both 1/2 need to smash to avoid 3 otherwise its curtains

Had a couple of quid Mottos Impact at 6/1 to supplement 12/1 Droopys Loner. Can only think 'Crooks think his 3.60 and 3.61 splits flukey and wont repeat. He has the legs of Farkland Tyson early and if the touted trouble materialises on the inside, he's strong and hard to hold? If Glanmire leads him, every chance, think Mottos will pick him up

Wood - great minds mate, as u kno I love loner and on Antepost, but also went lads yestday and had abit of mottos 6/1. We both like this dog too ;) gutted I done dusseldorf instead of him Antepost lol

Wot u think of honey v rebel? I love honey think she is right now, but don't think il bet her at evs

glanmire lad has an absolute plum draw and will lead all the way doing a 3.55 sectional and a winning time of 23.70 wallis will have him spot on for the final

You could well be right Pies. Not only is it a great final, it's fascinating, too. Good luck!

Danny, some will say how can Rebel turn over 7 lengths around in the space of 175 meters, but i think she can. Honey went into my notebook at Coventry but she's never done anything like her heat run, imo. Unfamiliar position of traps there for Rebel, we know she's quirky. She missed break and not a smooth run but 6 out of 6 over and getting faster all the time over 750 meters. At the prices, just think i'd rather take 15/8 Rebel rather than evens Honey

is she quirky just think she's a knocking good romford bitch over 750 and gets outpaced over shorter + lost at other tracks

lol morepies, methinks you are being sarky

A good card at Romford Friday for the big final
on lad for final never in million would i of backed it ante post
is he 100% **** nose but he got a great draw to work from
was it me but Romford Wednesday inside didn't pick a leg up it seemed
God knows why weather been fine !

there may be trouble ahead

Duped by Pies

Great winner rode a bump still won
Key to the race rodge didn't ping to hold up one or two ,
loner the almost again can't get her head in front
send her off fir the Irish oaks or breed from her !

What's wrong with English Oaks? Yeah, Rodge didnt come away so Farloe Barracuda and Droopys Loner had it between them. Thought my 12/1 Loner had a chance off last bend but came wide to challenge and Barracuda wouldnt have let her up the inside close home anyway. Same story, a narrow defeat for me, Aero Rebel, in the other final. Getting deja vu from last year. Saving grace, got 66/1 Barracuda for Derby. Would settle for his doing a Blonde Snapper!

Barracuda need a taxi to get home at the derby !
Soon as it trail round Wimbledon does a 28.70 your know!

Gutted loner, she did run well, thought I had it comin into straight, she switched outside argh! Fair play barra - but his defo not a derby dog lol

He will stretch them round first two bends never make it home

They said the same about Ningbo Jack and Tims Crow, both finalists. Will need trouble behind but worthy of entry more than most, imo

better to be out in front than a come from behind stayer at wimbledon.

rather have a come from behind stayer than a "not going to get 480"

FARLOE DOG BE WORTH A PUNT EARLY ROUNDS
BUT NOT KIDDING ANYONE
WIMBO BOYS TELL YAR THAT PICK UP IS HUGE !!!

didnt realise you had to get 480m to finish in the first 3, im sure if he lined up in the final he would only need a bit of help at the bend, cant wait to see him pacing up that long run up at Wimbledon tbh.
