Timeform Greyhound SmartPlays: Fight can Power through the line

Rackethall Bale (Trap 3, 17.22) has met with some stern assignments of late, albeit far from disgraced behind improving sorts on each of his last 2 starts. A strong-running sort over the 500-metre trip, this rates his easiest assignment for some time and he's fancied to turn handy and announce his presence from the ¾ point.

Master Reed (Trap 3, 21.11) has recently entered the veteran stage of his career but confirmed himself no back number when landing a C&D Derby Trial Stake last week, posting a decent effort on the clock in the process. It's feasible to expect him to be handy at the first bend at the very least and we're hopeful of a bold follow-up bid.

A Sussex Cup finalist Fight The Power (Trap 3, 21.26) ran well on just his second outing at Colwick Park when runner-up in a C&D event last week, that despite meeting with trouble-in-running. The move off the rail doesn't look a bad one in this field and with his latest effort reading well on the clock, all looks set fair for a big run.
