Trackside commentator Mark Rosanowski provides his tips for all 11 races at the Palmerston North Greyhounds meeting on Tuesday 17 September, 2024.
Courageous fourth over 755m in the Wanganui Stayers. Beat home 7 Johnny Football who burned his candle early up front in that but is more suited to the 660m today. Should be an enthralling tussle.
Selections: 4-7-5-6
Ran last on debut at Hatrick after three bouts of interference before the first bend. She’s ready to bounce straight back & the river of money for her is flowing again.
Selections: 7-2-8-3
Her recent c1 wins have been in times that will test this company too. The dog she beat last Tuesday won well yesterday. 7 So Electric looks the logical quaddie back-up following her solid third in c2/3 company a week ago.
Selections: 5-7-4-3
Managed to overcome his latest slow start to secure an overdue victory at Hatrick. Was pretty good when second here last week too but he makes you sweat for a collect. 7 Opawa Tara was a big winner fresh-up. That was a reverse criteria race & this is much tougher but she’s right up to this on ability. 3 Big Time Redeem is also needed in the quadrella.
Selections: 6-3-7-4
Downgrades after a brave fourth here last week. Has little legs but she turns them over quickly.
Selections: 4-8-3-6
Beat most of this field last week under similar circumstances. Bookies have left some juice in the lime.
Selections: 3-7-5-4
Has received rocky runs in his last two outings. Rocketed home for second three starts back over this shorter trip. Each way play.
Selections: 7-2-4-5
Has topped $300k in 100 starts. Not quite the force he once was but his record here is outstanding & he can still handle this field.
Selections: 2-6-8-3
Continues to draw wider than is ideal but he got across from box 7 to trail the leader on Friday & finished second. Capable of going one better. 7 Opawa Turbo was third in the same race at Hatrick & has a better record here. Another that would prefer the rail though.
Selections: 6-7-8-3
Unbeaten in three starts on this track. Not used to drawing out this wide but she has the early pace to overcome.
Selections: 8-6-4-1
Has hopefully got her confidence back after a soft win in easier company on Friday. Unbeaten in two starts here over 410m. Take the small field in the quaddie though.
Selections: 5-6-4
