Trackside commentator Mark Rosanowski provides his tips for all 12 races at the Palmerston North Greyhounds meeting on Tuesday 14 October, 2025.
1 Long Non White is fitter for recent racing so could push the favourites harder for longer from a comfortable draw at big odds.
Selections: 1-5-8-3
| 1. Long Non White (1) 57253T: Lisa Cole |
6 Lighting Space ran faster than the open class chasers when winning a maiden from the same draw on Friday. Gets to run out nominations against a similar field, Quaddie anchor.
Selections: 6-2-8-9
| 6. Lighting Space (6) 51T: Lisa Cole |
4 Churn It Up showed out in a much stronger field on this track two starts back. Prime opportunity for another win in the twilight of his career. Need quaddie cover however.
Selections: 4-2-3-5
| 4. Churn It Up (4) 57645T: W F Morris |
8 Opawa Marsh is a high quality group one winner who has excelled over 457m on this track & is these days one of the best short-course sprinters in commission.
Selections: 8-4-6-7
| 8. Opawa Marsh (8) 16113T: D Fahey & K Wyllie |
2 Lulu’s Dream made a tremendous recovery to finish second after being knocked off her paws early on Friday. Inside draw suits. This is a stunning c1 field for all that.
Selections: 2-1-6-8
| 2. Lulu’s Dream (2) 112T: Lisa Cole |
7 Big Time Fern beat a similar field in this class on Friday so is at generous odds to do the same again.
Selections: 7-2-3-8
| 7. Big Time Fern (7) 25321T: Lisa Cole |
4 Max Effort was an easy winner here a fortnight ago & returns off the back of a sharp 295m victory down home.
Selections: 4-6-3-2
| 4. Max Effort (4) 21161T: G A Cleeve |
8 Opawa Fannin is a promising southern visitor who was nailed after leading at Cambridge. Should lead this field with only Friday winner 7 Double Please looking a serious threat.
Selections: 8-7-4-6
| 8. Opawa Fannin (8) 11122T: D Fahey & K Wyllie |
5 Fire Warning put out the complete performance to win on Friday. 4 Very Rarely is a Canterbury visitor with the ability to make this a harder task today.
Selections: 5-4-3-8
| 5. Fire Warning (5) 11221T: Lisa Cole |
3 Tapu Girl has been swapping results with kennelmate 6 My Mini Me with the trend thus far being the winner is the dog drawn closest in. 5 Big Time Lauren could lead this race & change the pattern.
Selections: 3-6-5-2
| 3. Tapu Girl (3) 23112T: W T Hodgson |
2 King Harvest got chopped off by the winner into the first bend on Friday. Should be untouched today so it’s a question of how well 7 Priority begins & how close he settles to the King. 3 Big Time Lime could help the inside dog.
Selections: 2-7-3-6
| 2. King Harvest (2) 42216T: W F Morris |
2 Stuck Throttle was a close fourth in a feature race at Addington. Wide draw beat him the last time he was here. Things should set up better for him today in a quality field.
Selections: 2-3-5-6
| 2. Stuck Throttle (2) 44714T: G A Cleeve |
