On Thursday night punters can get ready to put down a bet on the next group greyhound race as the $15,000-to-the-winner Group 3 Dapto Maiden (520m) will light up the Dapto track.
The 2010 Dean Industries Dapto Maiden has attracted eight of the best maiden greyhounds including the promising speedster Winsome Shiraz.
The Melinda Finn-trained Bombastic Shiraz bitch boasts the fastest personal best at this track and distance, a sharp 29.71 that she ran here last week.
Unbeaten in her two starts at Dapto, Winsome Shiraz has drawn ideally in box one and will be hard to beat.
Drawn well in box one Winsome Shiraz looks hard to beat and will start the favourite at SportsBet
The dog that presents the biggest danger to Winsome Shiraz is Jason Mackay’s unbeaten Kinga Cam in the black rug.
The promising son of Bit Chilli has only ever started from the inside box one and it will be interesting to see how it handles jumping out wide from box seven in the final.
Mackay also has Kinga Zac lining up in the final due to jump from box five, both of Mackay’s littermates having won their heats last week.
With the draw holding high importance in the novice races such as the Dapto Maiden, the red rails runner will be hard to beat but for a Place bet try Kinga Cam and Ruth King’s Jack’s Pocket in box two.
The 2010 Dapto Maiden Final will jump as race six at Dapto on Thursday night at 9:14pm.
Following the Dapto Maiden Final, the next top dog race to check out the odds on is this Saturday’s heats for the Group 1 Paws of Thunder (520m) showdown at Wentworth Park, featuring Black Top winner Snozz.
