Nemesis didn't break in best style from T3 quarters but still flew. Winning a Derby never easy but with one of his customary splits, he would surely be prominent throughout if reaching the final? Suppose it depends if Mind The Net gets a run at him. Crokers Champ too should be up there for the duration. However, we are getting ahead of yourselves. They've all got to qualify first!

Think it will be closer than many people think. Yes, Mind The Net impressive to the eye but a shade over 2 lengths slower than other semi winner Droopys Ward. True, Ward much quicker away than usual there but Net, T4 and goes wide early turns, will have Crokers Champ to catch, who will arguably benefit most from the week off. So, personally, would be very happy with Netty or Crokers (books a holiday on the coast), or Trent (think sneaked in under the radar and would either pay for the trip to London - if I go again - or money towards the Irish Derby.) Will be disappointed if any of the others win.
Good luck! |

be hard 2 envisage crokers not leading..bit disappointed it got picked up so relatively easily in s/f
MTN breaking somewhat tardily in its s/f..can't afford that in final. albeit crokers is a v good dog,do not want 2 see it clear at 1st bend & then carnage behind & has a hollow victory of 6-8 lgths lets hope 4 a trouble free race & if so only one winner MTN..fantastic dog. |

Don't think MTN was impressive at all Saturday ,Like to know what Trent was doing had the race at his Mercy ,Crokers plot in
final , Ward Looked a fresh dog Saturday night if he can clear salad going to bend he is a massive runner,IF?... Trent has a smash in him there in Lies his chance ,if he gets on with it .. MTN obviously Massive runner with a clear .. G L to them all coz **** me you need it to win this comp |

By:
Think Ward will go left out of box , as in semi , may not be good for inside 2 but looks better for MTN .
|
|
By:
If Crokers can come out as per past form and clear the bend, Ward has a huge chance. If Crokers dawdles early trouble looms for all as he paces up and outwards to the bend. Outcome very unpredictable.

Dodger moves sharp right from 2, be amazed if he doesnt instantly ruin Ward's and his own chance.

yep 2 and 3 are drawn the wrong way around imo too
|
|
By:
6 is the only dog who has the draw he truly wants. 2 and 3 will do each other imo and 4 and 5 could also collide on the run up. 1 will lead from 6 and then its just a case of where 4 is off the 2nd bend. 10/1 the bottom is too big and ive had a small investment/saver in case either 1 fluffs the start or 6 bullets out.

Can only see 3 possible winners. 1,4 and 6
Mind The Net out traped Kincraig Rory in the semi but Rory being inside showed more up (was disappointed with Mind The Net to the corner) but being inside him this time i think he can lead him and either turn 2nd to Crokers Champ or 3rd to Farloe Trent and he wins in both scenarios (imo) |
|
By:
PF, that'll do me just fine. Netty, Crokers and Trent, in that preferred order
|
|
By:
Money for ward
 which seems strange as said 2 n 3 look set to collide, but then again Trent may smash, ward misses, Trent chops bend, Crokers runs off ,WARD FLYS ROUND IN 2nd place there is a man roaring like a lunatic at 1st bend Hes got the win, Fcast the Tcast ,the lot ... He then wakes up  |

By:
can only see two possible winners, champ or mtn, champ from the front , mtn cross fingers

Wouldnt discount 2 or 3 despite them probably coming together.
All sorts will be done with these dogs this week, dont discount a smash break from unlikely source. If Salad came away better than usual and turned 2nd/3rd to 1 and 6 he can win with clear. Likely be 25/1+ on bf on night which would be a bit big. |
