Greyhounds: Even field for feature at Whanganui tomorrow

It is an extremely even field which will parade to the Hatrick 520m traps to contest the First Security Race 10 open class event at Hatrick tomorrow evening.

Early pace is likely to determine the final outcome and it is perhaps the Lisa Cole-prepared Blazin' Carter who can lead his rivals into the all-important first turn here.

The New Zealand Cup third place getter displayed his pace asset when he picked up a bonus $2,000 for recording the quickest first sectional in last Friday's City Of Palmerston North Golden Chase.

Not surprisingly, he has a couple of kennelmates who hold stake earning claims here.

Bigtime Mia is returning after her bold pair of recent Manawatu 457m seconds.

All About Space, who was also a Golden Chase contender last week, must use her known early pace when she exits from trap eight.

She is noted railing greyhound.

Adding interest to this line up are couple of other greyhounds who certainly can challenge the Cole tram here.

Idol Dude is resuming racing following his last start third 527m in an Auckland Cup heat back in February.

His conditioner, Marcie Flipp ,will have this proven 520m chaser all set for a competitive fresh up effort.

Wanganui GRC President Brian Marsh is returning his charge Tyson's Quest to 520m racing.

Tyson's Quest has been sent out for the 305m dash lately, however his claims over 520m certainly cannot be lightly dismissed.

Bigtime Shine is absolutely flying at the moment for Cole and she holds a solid looking mortgage on the open class 305m sprint (Race 5) as she seeks her seventh consecutive win and 17th for her career.

She was slippery when she stylishly won her $5,000 feature 457m race in Palmerston North last Friday, then backing up with her slick 410m Monday win at the same venue.

Kennelmate Bigtime Blackie is likely to appreciate the switch back to the one trap here after her wide recent draws.

She has compiled a decent record when sighted wearing the red racing vest.

Idol Hot was the runnerup in the Group 2 Dash For Cash over 305m here back in December.

He remains a competitive sprinter at the elite level for Flipp and another bold sprint tomorrow evening by him can be expected.

Overlook the recent misses which the Jake and Dayze Bell-trained Justa Gift brings into this dash, as she can overcome the poor trap five draw she has been allocated here.
