Great comp in it's day

Just imagine if these dogs and comp was at Wembley or Wimbledon how much excitement it would generate
It’s so sad to see all these cat 1 comps at the gaff Traps are still so unpredictable At Towcestor whatever leads off the first bend in the final will win Will watch but ain’t having any bets in open races as started again in nov dec and as usual no good |

It was HGS, one of my few visits to Wembley was a Blue Riband final night when Fearless Champ won. That was 1986, I had to look up the year, trained by Geoff Dr Mulder.
It was the days of John Power being the head honcho in the ring and Tom Jenkins was standing that night with his unmissable coat and huge Havana on the go as well of course. Seems like another lifetime ago now but I can remember being in complete awe at the whole occasion. Same as you there R.A. I'll watch but no bets for me either. |

Spent hours looking at dogs that run in this comp early 2000s
Dogs around than where in another parish to now Wasn’t going play but two dogs running rd there totally wrong trip and completely wrong comp Imo where massive prices top 3 market Frostys ten 11/4 Getwiththetimes 2/1 both top 3 Get with the times should be looking at crayford golden jacket dog imo Both got races where could run into places Both Should be tick over looking at Crayford ffs |

By:
To me the huge mistake is running Russian sammy in this company it’s got no chance
The only plus is it seems to trap at Towcestor whereas it’s does not at other tracks But then gets badly outpaced down the back Should have entered it in 575 m trip If it runs Romford the 575 m trip would by idea, would have enough early and do around 35:00 ish |
|
By:
Will def watch save me from watching that lot from the funny side V Leeds, pity they cant both lose.
|
|
By:
Getwiththetimes 2/1 both top 3 ...... Can get 100s Getwiththetimes 3 qualify comp could be hard to knock out ,1st 4 in the final Had couple of quid ew .. think 11 wides in comp hopefully get rid of a few today

Hare betting
1-4 no problems 5-2 it’s knacks up  |
|
By:
Can’t see frosty getting in first three
You’re only hope is trap 4 pings out moves inwards and hampers trap 3 straight away |
|
By:
Made frostys 1-100 on down the back to make 3rd from where it turned
Terrible effort |
|
By:
Call me Steve did some running
|
|
By:
Short lived effort
 |

By:
You can’t beat that Towcestor third bend for not be able to past dogs
|
|
By:
1x3x2. Tricast pays £421.56.
What a gaff that place is. |
|
By:
I know she wide bitch but that was bad that first bend
Runs 20m more in every race Against 714 types winter going at crayford give her a look |
|
By:
Should be a good race next Azurra cracking early V the Derby champ , but round this gaff who Knows
|
|
By:
I thought Chelms won the Last race wasn't watching the Front , PMSFL only slip put the TC up I would still have thought 5 won
|
|
By:
Thorn falcon apparently ran a massive race
5 blew it a new rsole IMVHO |
|
By:
I agree. The 5 a very, very good dog. Firmager must be creaming himself at having such a good one. Bred himself.

Sunday afternoon at p0xy towcester Oh how this mighty sport has fallen |
|
By:
Totally
|
|
By:
O dear strayed into the single 1 rather than treble 20
That icemans savana dog can’t run at all PS in a sprint at Towcestor you are meant to back a dog that leads Hope this helps  |
|
By:
Well I did manage to watch the heats, inbetween everything else going on today and I have to say that the "I'll never have a bet again at that place" pledge I took remains rock solid. It's a truly horrible gaff.
|
|
By:
8 first round heats
The dog that led at the first bend won all eight heats Well I know would have guessed that |
|
By:
Great Call By the colonel 1 wins Savana king second , Had cast went out , Back in nee funds Added ,Thought 3 was well 2nd
|
|
By:
Ravage learn to spell it is towcester you are probally making a point but what
the track is wrong as most agree but the man running it is really trying to promote the dying sport fair play to denigrate an effort without such input would add to the demise is mind blowing the game is on its knees oh and the lack of punctuation is most deliberate |
|
By:
Not altogether unusual in first round heats, anywhere.

By:
I agree 100 per cent you he puts so much time and effort in making Towcester work
It’s just a real shame that at the start of the project he should have spent probably one to two weeks in time and cost 50 to 100 k ( just my guess) in running a new hare system and rail To do this properly it was not rocket science, all he had to do was get some old plan photos of Coventry track Put into autocadd scale it correctly and just base/copy the inside / outside circumference including the hare rail as well as the straight lengths Have a 490 m trip identical to Coventry and all greyhound fans would have worshipped KB, but afraid he made a mess of designing the new track layout which produces boring uncompetitive racing in which you ain’t in first two positions early on you got no chance of winning |
|
By:
I don't like locking horns with you but that;s absolute bowlucks.
|
|
By:
Got no problem anyone disagreeing with me
Which parts you have a different view of? |
|
By:
The Coventry Template we got the Lot , The 8 dog chinese business kyboshed that , not sure if they could have started from scratch again , Can't knock kevin ,Just a shame the track is what it is ,Awful lot of the racing is Indian file and Tbh boring to watch ..
|

By:

Thanks Knowledge

|
By:
Yes just said on RPTV
|
|
By:
Based partly on the make up of the races what’s the odds for a Yankee on the 4 trap 6 dogs in the quarter finals!
|
|
By:
The gaffs impossible shrop tbh ,Certainly all well drawn , That graded race sums the place up Dog cant lead does Race over jim daley spotted its leader potential on the Video of its last race ,Where it showed nil up and would have turned last if 3 dogs had not fell over .Not sure
what Videos he access to Certainly not the one on RPTV |

By:
