Greyhound Final Derby Draw
1 Southwood Jet 2 Deerjet Sydney 3 Ballydoyle Valor 4 Wolfe 5 Smurfs Machine (M) 6 Coolavanny Chick (W)
On face value, T1 looks the one to beat. However, the one dog he didnt want on his immediate outside was Sydney...sharpest cutter to rail there is....they could both hamper each other to the bend and open up the race to others...

Yeah, all great sires. Couldnt believe some of the prices put up at the start by Sportsbet...had something on Wolfe at 40, Sydney 51 and Chick 26. But, the race is for T1 to lose...providing he can miss Sydney at the start.

Be great for my old trainer Richard Rees to win with Southwood Jet and emulate his Dad and Grandad in winning the final, but think my current trainer Seamus Cahill might have the answer in Smurfs Machine! good luck to all finalists, home safe.

Best of luck with Razor, Back in the day we had a Puppy Derby Finalist at Wimbledon in the 80s led all the way but caught on the run in and finished 2nd, Roving Joy her name! race is on youtube was won by Bixby
good luck to all finalists, and well done getting this far

lets hope the weather stays good for a change because this has got the makings of being one of the best finals there has ever been.there might be 5 in a line going to the 3rd bend with a finisher sitting just behind

Heaps of Aussie blood, double cross of Top Honcho.

The winner has quite an in-bred pedigree that might not be so obvious.
A 3x2 cross of Droopys Sporty and Scolari Me Daddy positioned to impact and both are bred on the Droopys Kewell/Top Honcho cross.
A significant 5x4 cross of the famous Aussies Smooth Rumble and Rumble Spirit ... a proven cross, and again positioned to impact.
And, yet another English Derby winner bred on the cross of the famous half brothers Sonic Flight and Larkhill Jo ... although well back in this pedigree.
