Harry Buchanan’s Monday Greyhound Best Bets Posted on August 21, 2023 | Posted by Harry Buchanan NORTHAM Race 2 No. 6 Shady Town Racing superbly right now and this is very winnable. Went 17.49 two starts back and backed up with a good placing in a harder races last time. Just needs to offset the box early and he will run over these. Race 4 No. 2 Entry Level and No. 1 Surprised Fun The 2 gets a gun draw now. Keeps finding himself in the wrong spot at the first turn here but will get muster room now and he’s a great EW bet. The 1 has not beaten a single dog home at 7 of its last 8 runs so why would anyone entertain a bet. Well it’s simple. The dog needs the arm or bust. When she gets it, nothing in this will catch her, when she is crossed, everything will beat her home. She trials very quickly and hasn’t box 1 for a long time. Already met with support so it’s no secret what could happen. 1st or last for her so a small spec she holds up first turn and gets away. Race 7 No. 1 Opie Monelli and No. 6 Incredible Aura The 1 gets one last go here. Need to drive up and hold the arm and the step up in trip will see him go close to doing that. Has trialled very quickly around here over this distance so will take a lot of catching if he leads. The 6 will come on from the back after he drops over to the fence. Has a better run home than most of these and will be ominous late if he’s close. Race 8 No. 8 Something Fun Again being disrespected in this market. Good win last time and he will again muster up outside early and cross to the arm or close to it and he’s much stronger now. Fav would normally be hard to stop but it did absolutely zero here a few days back and the improvement needed on what it showed would have to be monumental. Race 9 No. 4 Stevie Monelli This is her race and this is her map. 1, 2 and 3 all go fast here and she needs to drop to the fence and smoke the pipe first turn. Good effort first run for new kennel and has even better form here. EW price and a clear run see her not miss the frame and go very close. Great bet at the current quote. Race 10 No. 8 Grass Patch and No. 6 Starlight Gina If the 8 steps, the 8 crosses and the 8 wins. It’s as simple as that. Fastest dog in the race. Can occasionally be tardy early so a save on the 6 EW the play. Steps up to a trip now and she can run a race. Just needs to offset a tricky draw but she handles most boxes anyway. Race 11 No. 6 My Dads Augie and No. 3 All Over Kora A result could be on at odds here the way this map looks. The 6 will get a stack of early room which is critical for her. If she steps and punches up early, she will be there to strike turning. EW at a super price. The 3 will drop and look for that fence run. With a few dogs who go straight ahead first turn she could get it too. Strong home and another who is over the odds. Race 12 No. 5 Simply No Doubt and No. 7 Row Keeping The 5 will spear out here. The form doesn’t show much but he’s raced much harder opposition than this recently and the grade drop is big. If he leads first turn he wins. Small saver EW on the 7 who could surprise in this. Shouldn’t be double figures and will roll up out wide and sustain the run home. Can hit the frame. Market Market
