He did point me in it's direction yes ;) It's last run was a little disappointing though so I'm more hopeful than confident now. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Rookie (Rodney) on April 27, 2009, 07:52:12 PM [ ] You need Meldrum to point out that the puppy derby winner has a chance in the Derby.

I see you've backed Dotland Hit Man - it showed great pace between 1 and 2 in the 1st round, should get through.

As far as i'm concerned, anyone who backed BOA is on the most ridiculous freeroll now after it only got through thanks to a dog deciding to stop chasing just yards from the line! Yeah, Dotland kept wide but ran the bend beautifully in his heat. More to come please!

My money ante post was on Wise Thought - he's still there but looks a tricky heat next week. I'm going to dtd next weekend but I reckon Wimbledon will be great next week - the last 48 is where it gets serious - 3 runs in a week will see the early paced suspect stayers totally knackered by the semi finals! gl with all the bets. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: vinni on May 11, 2009, 12:19:20 AM best value still in is greenwell river i`v had 50/1 and 40/1 bandi .
greenwell river is still available at 25/1 ,i think this is a banker bet on Saturday ,it looks sure to lead up.28.61 run last time says it all. gl Barry. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Karabiner on May 11, 2009, 10:36:59 AM I've added Droopy's Noel to my kennel @ 66/1, just got a feeling about this one.
Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Karabiner on May 16, 2009, 06:22:55 PM I'm really looking forward to the greatest card of greyhound racing of the entire year imho.
Especially now that I've finally figured out how to watch it via BSq. ;technophobe; I fancy the first three jollies to all oblige in the heats for starters. Other fancies include Melody's Pat (although I must admit that it pains me to agree with big Bazza ;)), Bandi, and Droopy's Noel who looks plotted up if he can just hit the lids even slightly. GL everyone Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Rookie (Rodney) on May 16, 2009, 06:50:17 PM Yep should be a good nights racing, there is a better race at Oxford tonight though at 8.07 ;)
Haven't had any bets tonight although I might get on Lazerus in heat 1 I think as that looks to be the value of the night. Gogogo my remaining kennel. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: vinni on May 16, 2009, 06:55:47 PM i think the same about lazerus rookie ,it ran well last week .
i know that the derby favourite does`nt want any picking but it looks like it can lead . gl barry. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: scotty2hatty on May 16, 2009, 08:34:35 PM wiiii, Love Mac!

fastest time of the night 28.65 . Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: scotty2hatty on May 16, 2009, 09:34:59 PM Greenwell River comes out super slow and is lucky to hold onto 3rd. Phew. Not impressed though, got a clear run into 3rd off the first and still nearly got picked off.
Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: scotty2hatty on May 16, 2009, 10:01:00 PM Wow, heat 3 of Quarters!!!
Farloe Reason, Tipoki, Zafonic, Shelbourne Aston, Ballymac Ruso and Greenwell River!!!!!!!!! Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: vinni on May 16, 2009, 10:05:40 PM this will show how good the dog is .5 railers .
wow you never expect an easy heat in the derby but this is a phenomenal heat. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: scotty2hatty on May 16, 2009, 10:14:32 PM That heat consists 6 of the first 8 in the market, so ridic.
Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Rookie (Rodney) on May 17, 2009, 12:04:29 AM OMG that heat is pure sickness and I am pretty pleased all my 4 dogs through have avoided it!! Will have a look at the other heats now but that is just an amazing heat!
Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Rookie (Rodney) on May 17, 2009, 12:08:46 AM Draw for Tuesday's quarter-finals, first:
1 Ja Mann 2 Love Mac 3 Jogadusc Ace 4 Kylegrove Cougar (m) 5 Deanridge Fury (w) 6 Wise Thought (w) Second: 1 Cabra Fly 2 Kinda Ready 3 Droopy Quinta (m) 4 Cabra Boss (w) 5 Kinda Sparky (w) 6 Bubbly Maestro (w) Third: 1 Farloe Reason 2 Bandicoot Tipoki 3 Fear Zafonic 4 Shelbourne Aston 5 Ballymac Ruso 6 Greenwell River (w) Fourth: 1 Glenard Sunrise 2 Shelbourne Denny (m) 3 Marbeck Wonder (m0 4 Windy Millar (m0 5 Stop The Show (w) 6 Romeo Turbo (w) The draws for people... Pretty pleased Windy Millar especially has avoided the big heat and has a seemingly nice looking one, my best chance of the tournament imo. Also got Ja Mann and Jogadusc in the first heat, and Droopys Quinta who is doing well just qualying so far in the second. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: vinni on May 17, 2009, 09:56:57 AM i thought kinda ready ran a blinder, he looks the bet of the next round.
bandicoot will have to do everything right at the box`s ,he impressed me immensely last night ,i`v watched the race over again ,the 2 dog last night hampered him for the first 25 yards up the straight ,which made it an even better run . i just hope he gets a run on Tuesday ,he`s a very intelligent dog for his age . his track craft is second to none . gl Barry. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Karabiner on May 18, 2009, 09:54:30 PM So there I was on Saturday night in front of my PC readying myself for the greatest night of greyhound racing (which I am a most ardent fan of) on the calendar, the last 48 greyhounds left in the The Greyhound Derby at Wimbledon, and after two phone calls to customer-service, and four attempts at getting the live feed from those lovely people at BlueSq. later, finally I had achieved success, woofuckinghoo I was watching the first of the eight heats on the live stream, the 8.00pm and not only that but my erstwhile losing bet on Deanridge Fury @2.4 in that same heat had not been matched yeeha.
Suddenly my eyes glanced towards the thumbnails on the right of the screen for the other greyhound meetings that night and I remembered that Rookie had mentioned that Rodney was running in the 8.07pm. at Oxford. Well wouldn't you know it but Oxford was one of those very thumbnails, and after a moment's hesitation figuring that once I had the live stream it would be fine for all meetings I clicked on Oxford. Everything froze. I never saw Rodney come second and I never saw another of the seven remaining heats at Wimbledon as the live feed was not re-accessable from where I was sitting, it seems that once you have the stream do not mess with it, a harsh lesson learned. On the plus side I did get matched @ 2.4 on Fear Zafonic, and @ 3.25 on Bandi, unfortunately I didn't get matched @ 3.1 Love Mac but neither did I get on @ 7 on Melody's Pat, all of this I learnt from www.thedogs.com several minutes after the races. Obviously the profit on the night's transactions softened the blow somewhat but I still hold Rookie 90% responsible grrrr.

Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Bigfella on May 19, 2009, 05:52:10 PM Good luck to Cabra Boss and Stop The Show tonight.... only two more rounds to get through before the big one. I fancy Cabra Boss to run a big race. Hope Wise Thought gets through as I have a good bet on him.
Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: bolt pp on May 21, 2009, 10:30:40 AM I backed russo @25's pre, got good chances now but i can still see anyone of 6 winning it, farloe reason has run amazingly, i'd love to see that dog do it, what a warrior that dogs been, one of the best runs ive seen when it chased home russo in the quaters, to run down the dog that posts the fastest time of the comp so far like that after being 2-4 down is amazing, to run such a fast race from second, he deserves it, looks plotted up to go round behind the fast 1 dog in the semis and i cant see him not qualifying and as long as he doesnt get 1 in the final he could go round third and i can really see him picking up 2 dogs and winning the lot.
russo's chance depends on whether or not he breaks, ive never liked fear zafonic(or ninja jamie for that matter) in the derby, they both seem to lack that little bit of early from the lids to line but then have pace to the bend and to the second, at a trappy little course like wimbledon i dont think you can afford that, especially if you're not a great finisher, ninja jamie and fear zafonic rely too much on it opening up for them between the first and second so i wasnt surprised to see ninja jamie go and i'm sure that russo can lead fear zafonic in the semis but the one dog is really pacey and could be a problem but if russo breaks like he did in the quaters and fear zafonic hits the one when it comes out russo will get a dream run and if it's on the bunny even the 5 dog wont catch it.

Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: The Camel on May 21, 2009, 12:13:38 PM I'm shocked Ruso isn't favourite for the Derby after his performance on Tuesday.
I'm on. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: The Camel on May 23, 2009, 09:32:14 PM I'm shocked Ruso isn't favourite for the Derby after his performance on Tuesday.

I want Farloe to win it, because he is defo the dog with the most guts in the comp. But, Zafonic for me, I just feel Lister will have him ready from his favoured red jacket, such a sick draw for him.

The draw was live after racing, from memory: 1) Farloe Reason, 2) Ballymac Ruso, 3) Fear Zafonic, 4) Kinda Ready, 5) Glenard Sunrise, 6) Wise Thought. One or two could be wrong but I think I may have got them correct. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Rookie (Rodney) on May 23, 2009, 10:33:06 PM LOL, the main thing about the draw was Zafonic in red!

Zafonic Ruso Reason Glenard Kinda Thought Oh yeah, I did say maybe one or two wrong and I've had three or four glasses of vino hic.... Thank fk for greyhound racing, Glenard got me out of it again today (my only bet), what am I going to do next week ?

Just wanted Ruso to be drawn inside the other Dartnall dog. That'll do nicely :) Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Royal Flush on May 24, 2009, 12:31:54 AM LOL, the main thing about the draw was Zafonic in red! Zafonic Ruso Reason Glenard Kinda Thought Trap 1 sure does produce on derby night Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: vinni on May 28, 2009, 08:30:12 AM trap 1 is a very rare winner in the derby ,but i think this is a big bet this time around .
FEAR ZAFONIC ,for the win. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: boldie on May 28, 2009, 01:02:41 PM RP is talking like Ruso is a good thing, I've watched his run and it did seema bit tasty.
is 5-2 too big? Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: TightEnd on May 28, 2009, 01:18:58 PM all the chatter is about ruso, zafonic and farloe
Why no chatter about Wise thought? Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: scotty2hatty on May 28, 2009, 03:15:24 PM all the chatter is about ruso, zafonic and farloe Why no chatter about Wise thought? WT has a great chance out wide, it's just that if ruso breaks like it has the last runs it'll not be for catching! Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: bolt pp on May 29, 2009, 12:10:03 PM all the chatter is about ruso, zafonic and farloe Why no chatter about Wise thought? WT has a great chance out wide, it's just that if ruso breaks like it has the last runs it'll not be for catching! wise thought will have to come past at least 3( possibly 4) dogs to win, you have to be a miricale flying machine to do that round the trappy little track of wimbledon, against the best dogs in the country if you're not a monster of a dog like da'hawk just forget it, he couldnt even get near russo when going round clear second, it's just not gonna happen, any of the big 3 get on the bunny you can forget about wise thought picking them up, the 4 dog looks like it could be the hold up dog for the two outside aswell. fear zafonic has a huge chance, plotted up in one, been screaming out for that box, a 1 dog will win it at wimbledon eventually and fear zafonic at it's price is probs the value to do so for me. cant really see farloe going round better than third, probs fourth and that will pretty much kill his chanes, not a dog in the country can come past him on the bunny but but not a great draw and i think the dogs that went though in the semis couldve worked out a bit better for him. kryptonite could be a huge price in the plate, ninja jamie wont break like that again and i still maintain that he doesnt show great pace from trap to line(shows his pace from the line to the second bend) and for sure loses interest when he gets a couple of dogs infront of him, kryptonie could be away and gone from an ideal draw, also ninja jamie seems to check out between the first and second(even when on the bunny) and if he doesnt break but goes round close he could be booked for trouble. i like kryptonite and fear zafonic tommorow, will be chearing for my ante post russo though, gogogogogogogo! Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: boldie on May 30, 2009, 08:07:03 PM come on the Ruso, couldn't believe it when Sportingbet offered 11-4 today. (looks a wide open race but if he traps like he can, it's all over IMO)
Everyone in the RP is talking Wise thought now. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Rookie (Rodney) on May 30, 2009, 08:18:04 PM I need someone to do a fairly decent bet for me please on my betfair account. I can't access it as america banned it obv.

The only saving grace is the dodgy Dartnell's didn't win. Terry Dartnell pulled more strokes than Steve Redgrave. Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: boldie on May 30, 2009, 10:30:20 PM Farloe did Ruso on the first bend, though TBF I reckon Ruso was beat when he wasn't clear at the turn....didn't see Kinda Ready winning it though..strange game this greyhound malarky.

Title: Re: Greyhound Derby 2009 Post by: Royal Flush on June 01, 2009, 02:17:17 AM Biggest fix ever, was abs comedy whole crowd cheering like mad as the going round, off the last bend huge roar then an eerie silence when it somehow gets picked up.
Flying winner abs killed me, how the fck it lose that. |
