I think his draw is fine Charlie and should be on the rails by the first bend , just an opinion, can't wait .
hope so Jason
my picks are Dorotas Wildcat Dorotas Woo Who Bruisers Bullet Madabout Eoghan
3 in the draw for the second round so happy with that , but one thing i am relising is that the draw is going to play a major part in deciding this years derby , far too many so called railers that don't want the rails , here's hoping the racing manager , owners and trainers see sense and start seeded the dogs properly before we get some serious injuries

Tough draw but should make it through Patrick, It's a great Derby but so much is going to depend on the draw from here on in, i've only the one left(bruisers bullet) and thankfully he looks to have gotten luckly this week with the draw!

I've have a few of lumps on bruisers bullet 50/1 40/1 and 33/1, a very impressive improving pup a fast trapping railer who sees the trip out well, , fingers crossed and good luck to all.
Another good run from him at the weekend and an ok draw for tomorrow night would have liked one or two though , but good thing is he is drawn inside the early pace so fingers crossed he makes it through safely

Hey Guru Charlie I had my last $25 on Clares Rocket after the first round and secured 7/1. I see you don't rate the B&W champ but he keeps winning, have I done me dough. - Mockers Macwollie

he could make the final , but don't see him winning another race round towcester in this derby , too many early pace dogs left in the comp , uptill now he has managed to avoid them .........dog i fear most is tyrur shay (i know not very orginal) he reminds me so much of the great westmead hawk , but still wouldn't swap him for the Bullet

As anticipated bruisers bullet is getting stronger race by race, I think if he does 5.15 /16 ish splits he'll be very difficult to beat, having said that it's greyhound racing and anything can happen, very best of luck to all remaining .

He looked like the shelbourne clares rocket tonight Mac ,
Jason... Bullet definitely needs one or two to turn that form around, or at least has be drawn inside him IMO.....Did great to make the semi so fingers x he gets rewarded with a favorable draw

Saturdays semi final draw copied from racing post website.
Chuck I don't think our TAB has realised they ran last night they still have 24 dogs listed Clares at 9/2 Tyrur 7/2. @ noon 21/6/17 - Macwollie
wow only problem is these companies usually have rules built in to cover themsleves it happens here every now and then , but i've never heard about anyone getting paid out at the inflated odds....ATM best prices available here are 5/2 Tyrur and 7/2 Clares, i still think Tyrur is the most likely but i have my fingers firmly crossed that the bullet makes the final , then you never know anything could happen......Origin is about to start i've backed the Blues -2 (main bet) and had a bit on them to win win by 7 or more
