Dynamo is quick as a Flash in A3 race at Perry Barr
In greyhound racing, each dog is a quick as a flash, but only the quickest one can win the race.
In an A3 race that was held during the early meeting of 480m races at Perry Barr Greyhound Stadium, Dynamo Flash (4-1) proved that he was the fastest dog in the pack. Coming out of trap
two, he challenged from first, and crowded and led third en route to claiming the top spot in 29.29. Denises Star (3-1) earned a second-place finish after crowding first and three-quarters. She finished the race in 29.53, three lengths behind first place.
Highfire Kyle (5-1) placed third despite lacking an early pace. He was also forced to check fourth, but ran on to match Denises Star’s time of 29.53. A shoulder’s length separated second
place from third. Finishing fourth was 2-1 favourite Bondi Rambler. Despite an early pace, he missed a break, which resulted in a 29.65 finish that was 1½ lengths out of the top three.
The long shot on 7-1 odds in this race was Harlenas Porcha, who moved quickly away, but crowded three-quarters to land in fifth place. She was 1¾ lengths behind Bondi Rambler with her
time of 29.79. Sixth place was claimed by Wood Bobby (4-1) who stumbled slightly from the start. He was also forced to check third, losing 2¾ lengths in the process. He completed the race in 30.01.
He Is Icey (6-1) froze the competition in the A2 race after he sprinted to a close first-place finish. He lacked an early pace from trap one and crowded third, but went on to finish well
with his time of 29.30. Despite crowding second and balking third, 9-4 favourite Ellys Queen ran on to a second-place finish in 29.36. She was only ¾ lengths out of the top spot.
Ben Gorm (9-2) was the third-place finisher. He held an early pace, but crowded first en route to a 29.48 finish that was 1½ lengths behind second place. Reach For It (5-1) tried to reach
for a finish in the top three, but wound up a single length out of third place in 29.56 to claim fourth place.
The Peacemonger (3-1) took fifth place in 29.92 after baulking second and three-quarters, resulting in a loss of 4½ lengths. Finally, Dripsey Five (5-1) finished last after baulking third
and three-quarters. He matched The Peacemonger’s time of 29.92 by finishing a shoulder behind fifth place.
