Timeform Greyhound SmartPlays: Barnfield Rebel can complete four-timer at Romford

ZARI ROSIE (Trap 3, 18:58 Romford) has built up an excellent strike rate at Romford and, following a string of consistent efforts in defeat, she highlighted her well-being when bagging another C&D open last time. A fast-trapping bitch as a rule, she ought to be front rank from lid rise once more and, in this groove, ought to prove tough to contain.

Having very much caught the eye with a view to stepping back up in trip, MINNIE BULLET (Trap 1, 20:38 Romford) earns our vote to come out on top in the Tony Williams Dual Distance Final. Finishing off strongly when runner-up in her respective 400-metre heat last week, Mark Wallis' bitch has already proven her class over this C&D and, with a clear passage, she can prove too strong for this evening's rivals.

Arriving in red-hot form, youngster BARNFIELD REBEL (Trap 6, 21:42 Romford) could well represent a spot of value. An August 21 whelp, he's certainly not lacking for stamina at the trip and showed tenacity when rallying well to complete a quick-fire hat-trick seven days ago, making the breakthrough at open level in the process. Further progress rates a distinct possibility and he looks a big player once more in his bid to complete the four-timer.
