We were as shocked as you. When we called the grader it was because they said he has never raced at Dapto so he is only 4th grade. Smart missile, knight sprite and paua to roar entered but didnt even get a look in. The field could of been a cracker if they would of put the best dogs into the field.
Scott it's an absolutely incredible how they can select 5 straight to the final but then grade (and I use the term loosely) the qualifier... Surely for the club and industry we want the best possible field... The market clearly suggests we don't have that... Just hand pick the qualifier too or fix the grading system...

Whittaker & Bessy Boo are boxed to swoop if there's a mix-up on the first corner.......& there's going to be lot's of speed at box rise.
Absolutely fantastic field.
Good luck to all especially Jeff & Jane Crawford who bred "Aphorism".
Would be fitting to see a "Greyhound-Data" member having a hand in winning a GROUP 1 race sponsored by "Greyhound-Data".

Keybow to the rail and good night!
I hope for Shaun's sake I'm wrong as he is due a group win!

I'll back Dotty from the 1...she doesn't know she's in a Group race and the experience of ALL the others...she'll just get out and run...Good luck and safe run to ALL the runners...

ill back KEYBOW even though he has drawn the 5box.excellent group race performer. if he gets a clear run he will be to hard to catch in this field.

She's capable of beating this lot to the 1st mark...if she runs .50 or .60(or faster) they can't catch her...???

Agree Grant, I think she will get to the front and they won't be able to run her down. She is 2 year old now and done all her schooling at Dapto, so I can't see the occasion worrying her.

yes dotty has a good future and has box 1, which suits her but she is jumping up in grade against dogs that can run fast 1st sections. dogs like KEYBOW , FLASH REALITY ,who have done there schooling all round the country against the best dogs on offer.
