Trackside commentator Mark Rosanowski provides his tips for all 12 races at the Palmerston North Greyhounds meeting on Tuesday 22 April, 2025.
Clung on gamely to win over 650m at Cambridge & gets a rare chance to run out maiden distance nominations. 6 Little Dodo ran on strongly for second over this trip last Thursday. Looks the only serious threat to Sammy.
Selections: 5-6-7-1
Dominant win in this class over 375m. Capable over the extra distance but the wider draw & the unbeaten 7 Big Time Toby will make it harder. Need both to open the quadrella.
Selections: 8-7-4-5
Would prefer to be on the outside of dogs but it’s a small field & this is a big drop in class for her.
Selections: 4-5-6-7
Draws better than he did when winning here on Thursday although there is more depth to this field with 8 Big Time Cortez downgrading.
Selections: 3-8-2-6
Up in class off a maiden straight track win but the ability is obvious. Ran into trouble here on debut. 3 Bet Rejected should appreciate being back up to 457m.
Selections: 4-3-5-6
Chased a smart southern visitor home last week. 2 Big Time Poppy made ground attractively three wide for third in the same race. Tempting each way odds.
Selections: 7-2-4-3
Muscled up for his win in this class on Thursday. Meets virtually the same field. 2 Tira Miss You has a better draw to work with today.
Selections: 3-2-4-5
Nearly caught a handy northern visitor five days ago. 2 Space Conspiracy will need to shake off 3 King Harvest immediately as he is the hardest railer around.
Selections: 8-2-3-6
Ran a bold second fresh up on Thursday against a c3 field & drops back into c2 today. Spare trap to his inside helps.
Selections: 6-8-4-2
Did well to get up for third in a group two race after a slow start. Has his wide-running brother 7 True Ability to protect him from 8 Need A favour who will be looking to cut across.
Selections: 6-7-8-2
Won the corresponding race on Thursday & this is certainly no harder. Should be a quaddie anchor.
Selections: 2-6-5-3
Continues to win from wide draws here & the 5 & 6 dogs can help him across again. 1 Who’s Jealous will get early protection from the 2 but there will be downward pressure coming.
Selections: 8-1-5-6
