Harry Buchanan’s Friday Greyhound Tips

MANDURAH

Race 2 No. 6 Got The Message 

He’s a nice pup this bloke and has a good turn of foot off the mat. Begins well and can lower his PB again if he finds the arm and get around the 27.80 which goes close here. Good value EW shot. 

Race 4 No. 2 Lil Bodi 

Promising young sprinter who gets a good draw this time. Top effort last time off a tough box and can track the red up at least here to be a force turning. Runs time when left alone. 

Race 5 No. 3 Prime Gold

Plays for luck here first turn but if he gets it, he will descend quickly late. Whilst he is better known over the 490m journey, this race has a a lot of pace to the first turn and he can get the run required to get into it. Will be a price but can hit the podium. 

Race 6 No. 7 Opie Monelli and No. 3 West On Spinner

Gee the 7 was good last week. Absolutely no luck at a vital stage but kept coming strongly and didn’t lay down at all. Tracks the 6 over with room and can go close. Have a save on the 3 who is very good. Possibly better off wide but has a lot of talent and if he found the arm he would take some catching. 

GAWLER

Race 1 No. 4 George’s Fancy 

Small field and closer to the fence the key now. Boxes have hurt her chances lately and she gets every chance with a wide running type outside her and no speed inside. Can lead and therefore go close.

Race 7 No. 2 Saint Candy

Getting on but still capable and her good box manners only need to come out to be a major player here. Can step and show these a clean set of heels and even come from off the arm if close enough. Don’t dismiss. 

Race 11 No. 2 Emerley Wiggum 

A matter of how he steps and musters here. Should he land close he will take all sorts of stopping and his form is superb. Boxed to get every possible here and the one to beat. 

BALLARAT

Race 6 No.3 Baby Jaycee and No. 8 Wobbly Boots

The Oaks final. The 3 is a class act and her box manners, early speed and brilliant overall sections make her the one to beat. Has raced FFA company and goes close here. A small EW spec on the 8. She isn’t completely out of this and can at least place with a little luck at big odds. It’s the 3s race to lose though. 

Race 8 No. 3 Incineration 

The Western Districts Derby final.  The 3 can run a sneaky race with fav out now. Tripped out of the boxes in his heat and made some ground even though they jammed up front. He is a better beginner than that and runs time.
