Monmore Puppy Derby Round 1

A cracking night of Puppy races this evening at Monmore. The track was very busy with lots of high profile owners and trainers. I met up with old friends Steve Murphy and Carly Phillpott and had a good catch up before Lance Burford came down to catch up on the news. Rather than review each race I'll post the Semi Final draw and my comments.
1^st semi final:
1 Lethal Ace - Rapid pace to 3rd bend, did he get home ?

2 Greenwell Cool - Will need to find some early to figure.

3 Centurion Enry - High class contender, had early trouble but chased leader down.

4 Droopys Kez - Will need to come away from this draw, pacey.

5 Freedom Emma - Was smashed straight out the boxes, stuck to task well but will need to improve lots.

6 Magna Venturer - Shaped up well after poor start, could have really traffic problems next week.

2^nd semi final:

1 Kinda Ready - Really took the eye, stuck to guns well.

2 Bandicoot Tipoki - Missed break then showed breathtaking pace. A lot of running probably cost him dear.

3 Eden Rocket -Will need a miracle in this heat.

4 Aughacasla Jesse - Great run from tough heat, will need to do everything right next week.

5 Droopys Cadel - I think the draw could very well suit, in the hottest Semi Final.

6 Droopys Jervis (m) - Stunning debut, my only bet of night, will need to fly out, possibilities.

3^rd semi final: 1 Eden Dom-Veers left at boxes, ran on very strong.

2 Bawna Elsa - Led a mile from a bad draw, will need to again.

3 Droopys Quinta (m) -Lacks early toe, could run on late.

4 Farloe Lee (m) - Didn't really catch the eye.

5 Bush Paddy (m) - Took his time to get going but looks in great order, 28.00 does not lie.

6 Kinda Free (m) - Ran on very strong, could struggle from the six box.

Bandicoot Tipoki was our Antepost bet at 4/1 and I'm still happy with that, he showed super pace down the back and after mising the break. Chris Allsopp's Droopys Jervis was my only bet of night and that paid 7/2 on the night.
