Doesn’t look a vintage derby… £15 seems cheap though. Trouble with greyhound racing, always undervaluing itself.

Fattie.. I know people that pay £60 to watch Arsenal every weekend

back in the day case

It was wonders, I had to go to shops to get on and at a better price which you would think was just not possible .It was absolutely unbelievable how little there was on the event. I think it was around 800K or thereabouts when it was closed. You'd get more turnover than that on a decent weekend handicap.

Wild been a Great dog , was looking at a couple Peewee dog looks like qualifying type , and All about ted looked decent round tow could be a bit more in the locker ..

Fairone.  Nice run.  I liked the way he raced the third bend.  He'll be very tough to catch whenever hr gets out front.

What time has it Done ?

Last Heat would give it at least .20 slower than early heats = 29.33 IMO

Bocko Gone Not sure what happened hope dog is ok

WTF how has 2 picked ted up

Syd pinged paceless Lucky to qualify more carnage behind

Littlething 29.10

I would ADD 3 trials to get the Qualifying time if needed ,You don't get sent to the Olympics for running 11 second hundred meters ...

I thought Ballymac Ariel put up a glorious display, running wide and losing time, a good bunch of bitches on show. The 16.96/29.10 from Jackslittlething was something to behold, but I suggest the track was quicker for that heat, the second doing 29.45 beaten 5lengths tells me that anyway? it's all about opinion.

de machine got to get the red card

Strait red

EXPLOSIVE BOY STILL DERBY FAVOURITE

After a foot-perfect display on Saturday, Explosive Boy remains the clear favourite for Derby glory with sponsors ****.

Pat Guilfoyle’s brilliant son of Good News may be facing a very tough draw in the third round but he is as short as 7-2 to win on September 18th.

Jackslittlething will be the shortest priced favourite in the third round and he is a 5-1 clear second choice in the outright market, ahead of Ballymac Ariel at 8-1. Of course, Ballymac Ariel will lock horns with Explosive Boy on Saturday but so too will Jacob Tashadelek. He is only 12-1 for outright success after another professional display in the second round.

Deadly Destroyer is also on the 12-1 mark with flying ladies Scoobys Princess and Susie Sapphire on the 14-1 mark. Deerjet Sydney and Ballymac Wild are next in at 16-1, while All About Ted and Ballymac Fairone are 20-1. Broadstrand Ryan, Athlaca Zette, Swords Maestro and Priceless Jet are all on the 25-1 mark.
