Timeform Greyhound SmartPlays: Fear Lee at Sunderland

Jaxleg Pat (Trap 5) - 13.28 Sheffield

Having shaped well on a number of occasions of late, JAXLEG PAT (Trap 5, 13.28) deservedly resumed winning ways when successful in this grade of A7 5 days ago, handy from lid rise and asserting off the last bend. Holding a class edge over the majority of her rivals this afternoon, it's feasible to think she can lead up also and at a good point post-season, we're hopeful she can follow up.

Fire Excape (Trap 4) - 20.12 Sunderland

We head to Sunderland for our second selection, a D4 contest over the 261-metre trip and FIRE EXCAPE (Trap 4, 20.12) could well be the answer. Easily forgiven his latest effort, his exploits previously on the clock stand up to close scrutiny in this field and with a clear run is fancied to assume control off the second bend and have enough in reserve to hold off the challengers.

No Fear Lee (Trap 3) - 20.27 Sunderland

Having posted a ready victory on the comeback trail in A8 in January, NO FEAR LEE (Trap 3, 20.27) hasn't really had the rub of the green subsequently, twice meeting with trouble in-running in recent weeks, thus not featuring. A March 20' whelp, her improvement may not have levelled out just yet and with a good chance of bossing the inside from lid rise, it would come as no surprise to see Yvonne Bell's charge lead up early and prove tough to peg back in a race lacking depth.
