Greyhounds August 7th, Tips and Previews
The Meadows Best Bet - Race 1
2
Indy Ghost $3.4
Indy Ghost looks set to return to the winners list after a solid effort over 450 metres at Ballarat last start.
He always raced near the lead only three days ago heading into this 525-metre event at The Meadows and looks to get a favourable spot on the speed map.
Andrea Daily clearly has him going well given he races on the back-up and from box two he should settle either in the lead or take the drop in behind the dog drawn in box one.
Looks the best of the night.
The Meadows Next Best - Race 4
2
Catch The Thief $2
Someone get a fire extinguisher to put out the flames Catch The Thief left at the Sale track last start.
He ran a breathtaking 28.99 over 520 metres after setting the track alight with a blistering turn of foot and a incredible sustained speed to win by nearly seven lengths.
The Jason Thompson-trained chaser draws an inside box for this race and should be able to ping to the front and find the lead with ease as he did last start.
A genuine star on the rise who looks set to win bigger races than this if he can continue to replicate his win last week.
The Meadows Best Roughie - Race 12
5
Zipping Caviar $31/$5.5
Zipping Caviar is over the odds in this race given his solid record at The Meadows.
Mark Delbridge sends this chaser out over 525 metres in this race and, despite being well beaten his last start over this track and distance, he looks to be in with a solid each-way chance here.
He drew out wide in box eight and it was a race where there a tonne of early speed drawn inside of him. |
He was never able to find a spot near enough to the lead in the run and got shuffled out the box.
Draws the squeezebox this time around but there does not seem to be too much early in the pace, so he can pounce on the lead early in this and give a sight at big odds.
