Harry Buchanan’s Thursday Greyhound Best Bets

NORTHAM

Race 3 No. 6 West On Trixie and No. 8 Piper Spolly

The 6 has a tricky draw but a clean step and room will make her the one to stop. The 8 shows pace here and hard to run down if she crosses cleanly first turn. 

Race 4 No. 1 Global Plan and No. 2 Warm Regards

The 1 rarely wins but he’s a frame hitter again here after a good effort last week. Strong home. As is the 2 who is the best dog in the race. Clear running up the back is all she needs to win this.

Race 6 No. 7 Athena Girl and No. 8 Rona’s Rocket

The 7 is under rated and could muster up into a striking spot here. Will keep coming at odds and can figure. The 8 will go across heels early and look for fence runs. This looks messy so it could appear and she is a late charger. 

Race 8 No. 2 Daph’s Yak and No. 3 Turtle Fernando

The 2 is the best dog who only needs to step here. Any time he can find the front will see this all over. The 3 can come on from mid field and will appreciate early room he will get here. Place heavy player. 

Race 9 No. 4 Lenny Coaster

This is her chance. Will go forward and try to lead but only has to be with the leader to score here. Times are simply better than the others. Unbelievable each way price about her so she’s a bet.

Race 10 No. 6 Harley Monelli

Small field is how she gets into this. Can reel off good sections when she gets trouble free runs. Will get that here and strong late. Top two player. 

Race 11 No. 2 Ronnie Ranger and No. 7 Ninja Fun

The 2 will go fast as usual  here and if she gets the arm that should be it. Just needs to clear the red early. The 7 is the other speed element in this and she races well here. Look for her to step. Can win. 

Race 12 No. 4 Surprised Fun and No. 5 Adventure Queen

The 4 is very fast when she’s on but equally enigmatic. If she leads again that will be it. The 5 can capitalise on a clear early run here and she will go close against these. Gets the drag over. 

SANDOWN PARK
