Kosher Colin looks well drawn in 20:17

Walthamstow Greyhound Racing / Editor / 09 February 2007 / Leave a Comment

Kosher Colin (T6) appears to have a peach of a draw out wide and looks an interesting prospect in the Romford Stadium Seniors, an Open race run over 400 metres and due underway at 20:17.

Like A Light (T1) has been struggling in A3 company at local track Harlow and is generally slow from the gates. Robert Orgles' golden oldie appears difficult to fancy.

Joint Reaction (T2) met with trouble in-running last time, is best judged on the form of his scorching 25.58 in an A1 contest a month ago. A reproduction of that effort on the clock would see Dave Mullins' son of Knockeevan Star go close.

Galdare Honcho (T3) is a sluggish starter, appears to have plenty to prove on the clock. With the son of Top Honcho currently on an eight-race losing run, backers may well hold fire.

Clap The Throw (T4) boasts the fastest recent calculated time in the race and is capable of a brisk exit on his day. If the son of Applaud is on a going day, Peter Payne's representative cannot be ruled out.

Head Hunting (T5) has only managed to win an A2 from his last ten starts, needs to show marked improvement to figure amongst the leading players. Paul Young's inconsistent performer looks an interesting proposition for layers.

Kosher Colin (T6) boasts the most decisive early kick in the contest and looks set to attract plenty of backers, With Jim Reynolds' charge boasting a 60 percent winning strike-rate in the striped jacket, the June 02 whelp may be difficult to peg back.

Ballymac Mikey to overcome draw in 21:52

The likeable Ballymac Mikey (T5) boasts sizzling opening speed and looks set to command plenty of pre-race attention in Romford's David Thomas Birthday Stakes, an Open race run over 400 metres and due underway at 21:52.

Clarenbridge Lad (T1) has gone off at big prices in A2 events at Harlow, needs to improve appreciably to exploit a decent draw next to the pegs. Successful on just one occasion in his last nine starts, Robert Orgle's charge should appeal to layers.

Centaur Rover (T2) is an ex-Newcastle greyhound, who has his first outing for Peter Payne and looks an intriguing prospect. The lightly-raced youngster, who looks to be going the right way, is worth a scan in the market for positive clues.

(T3) Vacant

Limited Time (T4) is the winner of two races from his last four starts and must enter equation. With plenty of room to manoeuvre, Jim Reynolds' quickie should be battling for supremacy at the corner.

Ballymac Mikey (T5) is a promising maiden and bids to get off the mark at the fifth time of asking. Blessed with an abundance of natural all-round pace, Dave Mullins' charge is expected to take the beating in his all-the-way bid.

Aero Desire (T6) is an-ex Walthamstow representative, who has only her second outing here and should be thereabouts. Paul Young's bitch, who spoilt her chance of making a winning debut at the London Road circuit when mistiming the break, should be well suited to the drop in distance.

'Chakalak' to dazzle in 22:08

Chakalak Dazzler (T1) is the youngest runner in the field and looks to hold decent claims in the Lois And Eve Trophy, run over 400 metres and due underway at 22:08.

Dave Mullins' daughter of Droopys Agassi, who is unexposed at this level, appears drawn for a big performance in the red vest and is expected to hit the front if trapping in her usual peppy style. The August 04 whelp, who caught the eye when recovering from a slow exit to very nearly catch the smart Bonville Gerrard the other day, should run a big race judged on that useful effort.

Slick Senorita (T2) goes well at Romford but seems to find plenty of traffic problems nowadays. A costly failure when heavily backed at Harlow last time, the November 03 veteran - who chases a first success from her last nine starts - is probably best opposed.

Miss La Barca (T3) has won just one race from her last 19 outings and should have layers licking their lips at the prospect of taking on Paul Young's daughter of Droopys Kewell. The slowly away May 04 whelp, who is well treated on the form of her sizzling 24:40 in November, needs to recapture that sparkle.

Mega Sophie (T4) is set to have her opening spin around Romford, should strip fitter for her recent return to the fray following an absence of more than two months. However Ian Aylward's January 04 whelp, who lacks in experience, may struggle in this company.

Borna Moon (T5) was beaten in all of her last 11 races and appears to have lost her confidence. On a positive note, however, is the fact that Jim Reynolds' greyhound is expected to figure prominently at the turn.

Wernham Lass (T6) has failed to cut the mustard in this type of event and faces a stiff task on the outside. Inferior to T5 in the early pace department, Paul Young's sole wide seed should be doing sterling work in the latter stages.
