Bang on Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 (edited) I am looking to put up occasional selections on this thread, around 2-3 per week mainly at Sheffield or open racing. Tonights selection. 6.22 Sheffield - Tp4 Lostrigg Freddy (6/4 betfred, 11/8 lads,coral, skybet,188, elsewhere 5/4) ... can be viewed on RPGTV (Sky channel 431) or online (google RPGTV). This is an A2 race. Lostrigg Freddy was better grade (A1) a few months ago. Back from a break he won last time out comfortably (4 1/4 lengths) in this grade. He runs in the same grade again and the make up looks like he will enjoy back to back wins. WON @ Evens s.p. by 5 1/2 lengths Edited November 1, 2018 by Bang on result Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang on Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 I have not forgotten about this thread. Was tempted on Tuesday but decided against (lost in photo anyway). I am waiting for a solid selection (probably Friday/Saturday evening). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang on Posted November 3, 2018 Author Share Posted November 3, 2018 (edited) 10.12 Sheffield - Tp3 Fearsome Aria (7/4 Betfred, 13/8 365, 6/4 P.Power) ... again, can be viewed on RPGTV (Sky 431). A very young puppy having its first ever race would not normally be a selection. However, it has the early pace to lead and in its final qualifying trial was brought to a standstill when another dog fought with her (it got disqualified). If she had a clear run without interference would have gone into a higher grade so this should be easier and can make all. WON @ 5/4 s.p. by 3/4 length (led early, never really in doubt) Edited November 4, 2018 by Bang on result black rabbit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang on Posted March 7, 2020 Author Share Posted March 7, 2020 Looking at reviving this thread with the occasional selection. Selections will not be every day, and as before will mainly be Sheffield or open races. 9.18 Sheff - Tp 4 - Make no Apologie (15/8 Ladbrokes, 7/4 general) The Steel City cup starts tonight and my fancy who I have backed ante-post is Make no Apologie (3rd fav ante-post - 7/1 ..E.W. 1/4 odds 4 places in final). This is a big step down from last week where he finished 4th to Ice on Fire who is the ante-post fav for the Greyhound Derby. He has the pace to lead up although it is no 'gimme' and hopefully he can win and progress to the semi-finals (1st 3 go through). Can be watched live on the new SKY channel 175 (360 live), or online at ... greyhoundbet.racingpost.com ... click on the RPGTV button black rabbit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang on Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) Major disappointment last week, dog ran no where near its form. There is a lot of kennel sickness going around the greyhound world and it could be that it has a bug as there are no reports of lameness.. 8.24 Sheff - Tp 6 Deadly Expert. (11/10) ... was 6/4 late last night ... likely to go off odds on. ... WON 4-5 s.p. This looks a real solid selection. It has its favoured trap 6, with the bonus that trap 5 has been withdrawn lame so it has a vacant trap next to it giving it plenty of room to work. For me it is the best dog in the race with a bonus vacant box next to it. It should lead or be up the front from the start. Can be watched on Sky 175 .. or Freesat 176 .. or online.

Bang on Posted March 17, 2020 Author Share Posted March 17, 2020 Going back to the dog at the start of the thread tonight. 8.29 Sheff - Tp 2 Lostrigg Freddy .. 5/4 general. Has been dropped in class to A3. He is drawn in Tp2 and the dog in Tp1 is coming back from a spell off so hopefully his race fitness should give him the edge. Some of the other dogs are going up in grade, whilst some struggle to win A3 anyway. For me he is a fairly strong selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang on Posted June 16, 2020 Author Share Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) Quite a few of interest tonight at Sheffield. Seven races of interest and difficult to narrow them down as can't punt everything. 7.47 Sheff - Tp 6 Dreamy Liamy 10/3 WON generally - Danger is Tp4 but for me the best in the race is the seletion if running up to his best. 9.07 Sheff - Tp 4 Million Jimmy 7/2 lost bet365 - Not far away in a higher grade last time and can't see much to beat him. 9.27 Sheff - a top heat sprint and a cracking race. looks a match between Tp 1 Keefill Finn 7/4 lost bet365 and Tp 3 Referendum 9/4 WON skybet. (slight preference for Tp1 on the draw) Can be seen on sky channel 175 or online. Edited June 16, 2020 by Bang on results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang on Posted November 14, 2020 Author Share Posted November 14, 2020 (edited) A few of interest on tinights Sheffield card, but only 1 solid selection. 8.46 Sheffield - Tp 4 - Droopys Wild - 2/1 - Looks like it will get a soft early lead and shouldn't be caught as this is an A2 down from an A1 Can be watched on Sky 175, freesat 176, or online (RPGTV). Led as expected but went lame unfortunately.. will be off a while. Edited January 23, 2021 by Bang on results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last selection went lame and hasn't raced since. Tonight a few of interest, all at Sheffield. 6.51 Tp 6 - Exciting Coco (7/4 B365) - Leniently treated by handicapper, running in a lower grade than usual (usually wins in this grade)... LOST 7.41 Tp 3 Dolla Rosie (11/8 Skybet) - Downgraded from A2 to A3, should be better than these.... WON 13-8 8.46 Tp 1 Emoskis Girl (10/11 B365) - Has its favoured trap 1 draw, should lead early over the extended distance, and prove hard to catch...... WON 8-13 9.45 Tp 6 The Other Rex (2/1 Skybet) - Been off for quite a while, but used to be much much better than this A3 grade (was A1 /Open class).... Non Runner - meeting abandoned. All have been well backed (if you can get on- I have been restricted) Can be watched either online, or Sky Channel 175, Freesat 250.

Bang on Posted January 26, 2021 Author Share Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) We did OK on Saturday before the meeting was abandoned as the track froze. Did have 1 selection for tonight but it is now no value (has been backed). It was very unlucky last week getting 'mugged' on the line, should go one better tonight. It is in trap 2 with a moderate starter in trap 1 so should get a nice run early. Again viewing online or Sky 175, Freesat 250 Sheff 9.01 - Tp 2 Lightfoot Root (8/11 B365 and Skybet) .... WON 4-6 Edited January 26, 2021 by Bang on results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang on Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) Just 1 selection tonight. Having led but caught near the line last time, this very young pup is expected to go one better tonight. Should get to the front pretty quickly and lead all the way. Again viewing online or Sky 175, Freesat 250 Sheff 6.51 - Tp 3 Magna Boss (5/4 B365 and Skybet) .... Lost Led as expected but got caught near the line.

Thanks Sorry to hear about your account getting restricted I have more bets than I post on here. Generally I try to keep an eye out for the prices coming online, however, Sheffield are no longer on RPGTV (still on BAGS)... whch means that the bookmakers tend not to price them up as early. Prices for evening racing used to be available around 12.00, but now are available from around 2 - 3 o'clock. The biggest problem with Greyhounds is getting on, although if you mix them with other sports it is easier. LIKE2FISH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang on Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) 7.41 Sheffield - Tp 3 Geelo Celticgold 2/1 (Bet 365) Has been running in open races, this is easier but no gimme. Hoping it can lead the inside runners and go all the way. ... WON 9.16 Sheffield - Tp 6 Slide away 9/2 (Bet 365) Don't expect to see this one until late on, this strong runner can reel the leaders in close home. .. lost 9.31 Sheffield - Tp 1 Glory Millie 6/4 (Bet 365 + Skybet) The draw can give this one the lead at the bend and shouldn't get caught. ... lost Can be viewed on Sky racing (Sky 415) or online.
