Aughacasla Vieri favourite for Coral.co.uk Sprint
The speed of all greyhounds will be put to a test in the Coral.co.uk Sprint at Hove in England on Thursday, November 22, 2012. Most of them have been struggling for consistency, which will make the situation quite interesting in the Grade OR contest, which
is going to kick off at 21:40 GMT.
It will be important for all the greyhounds to get off to a lightning start in the 285 metres race, as they will not get many chances of making a comeback once the traps are opened for racing.
Even the smallest of mistakes could prove to be too costly in the race, so all of the runners will need a lot of determination to make an impression at Hove. The winner will be awarded a cash prize of £175 at the end of the day.
According to the bookies, the best chances of victory are with Aughacasla Vieri, thus he has been given the highest odds today. He will enter the competition with a starting price of 7 to 4 and the punters should be placing some bets in his favour. However,
they will be looking at a couple of more decent options.
Aughacasla Vieri has been slotted in trap number six, which means that he will not get blocked by some of the slower greyhounds around him. He has got an impressive speed and that will definitely be needed to claim the top spot at the end of the day.
If the K. Tester’s trained hound gets off to a brisk start, his rivals will have to do their best to prevent him from finishing first. He has not been performing well with consistency in this class recently, which is a worrying sign for his team.
Despite that, the black dog will look to break the shackles this time around, as he has the ability to make a strong comeback. He appeared in a D1 contest last time around and managed to succeed in it comfortably.
However, he will have to weather the storm from someone like End Drought, who is young and loaded with immense talent. He did not enjoy a very good time last time around against Aughacasla Vieri, but will be looking to make amends today.
