GRV’s Peter Quilty, Gerard Guthrie and Trent Langskaill provide their thoughts on some of the star greyhounds racing in Victoria.
Keep an eye on these, they are worth saving in your WatchDog Blackbook!
Quilts Happy New Year, gents. What a way to start Premier Racing in 2023 with Group 1 winner Amron Boy expected to set the track alight at Sandown Park this evening.
Gerard We also get to see Yachi Bale in action, Quilts, over the 595-metre trip. The last time he raced at Sandown Park, he took out the world’s greatest greyhound race.
Trent Fellas, how good are the Warragul Cup heats? Recent Group 1 winner Fernando Mick faces Panadero Warrior – victorious in scorching time at Shepparton on Monday – in the first heat.
Quilts The second heat features Unleash Collinda aiming to win his eighth successive race. He does have to contend with The Phoenix runner El Dorado though.
Gerard Can last year’s country cups king Typhoon Sammy secure a spot in the Warragul Cup Final? Landyn Bale, All Spritzed Up and Quinlan Bale won’t make it easy in the third heat.
Quilts Cybertruck – won six-in-a-row – and Matt’s Hope – triumphant in eight of his last nine – is a great duel in the fourth heat. Jungle Panther, Zara’s Ivan and He’s No Slouch are also in the field.
Trent What a coup for Warragul to have the back-to-back Phoenix champion Wow She’s Fast going around. The two-million-dollar queen is easily the headline act in the fifth heat.
Gerard Paddy Wants Pats and Paua Of Buddy is a top clash in the sixth heat, while the up-and-comer Elite Alex faces Salad Dodger in a terrific seventh heat.
Quilts Titan Blazer – a finalist in last year’s Warragul Cup – is up against My Neo, River Rough, Mepunga Mustang and Hot Scotch in a highly competitive eighth and final heat.
Trent Don’t forget that the Warrnambool Summer Sizzle Final is on Saturday night along with the clash between dual Sale Cup champion Jarick Bale and the Dustin Drew-trained Untapped in the Ray Drew Memorial.
