2015 Champion Puppy Final
What a great field we have on Thursday night with so much future potential and depth. The Murray kennel supplies half the field here, Troy with 3 (Aston Tulloch, Aston Eclipse and the favourite It’s Classified) and father Ray with the very smart Von Dousa. Von Dousa in his semi final lobbed second to Aston Tulloch which was well supported on the Ubet tote and proved far too strong over the concluding stages. He won’t mind it drawn out wide in box 8 and looks a big player in the final. Troy had absolutely no joy in the box draw with his 3 runners coming up with boxes 4, 5 and 6. It’s Classified will be and deserves to be favourite, he ran 29.53 two weeks ago before winning his semi final with ease but will have to overcome the box draw in a hot field. The main threat to the Murrays taking out another feature race is the Martin Doyle trained Rhynstone Jetta who has the beautiful inside draw and is my tip to lead and make it hard for the favourite. He will run you 29.80 in front and will prove no easy task to get around. Raglan Gun who has drawn 3 will jump well and run wide helping the inside two greyhounds and looks a good place chance with Nit Noi and Macmarcus first 4 possibilities.
The first turn will tell the story here, who will lead out of Rhynstone Jetta and It’s Classified? How close will Von Dousa settle and will Raglan Gun cause any trouble with her wide running ways? Good race and good luck to all involved.
