On 6th January, the Grade OR Local Parking Security Prestige was held at Hall Green. It was split into three different heats with trainers such as Chris Allsopp, Dean Childs, Mark Wallis, Kelly Findlay and many other honourable
trainers, having entered their hounds for the contest.
The Local Parking Security Prestige was held over a distance of 645 metres, and offered a prize money of £150.
The first heat was won by P Young’s trainee, Millwards Swaby, daughter of Westmead Hawk out of Girl With Guitar.
She sped up gradually, and slowly took lead of the track, finishing the race in 40.32 seconds.
The runner up of the race, Ballymac William, geared up almost instantly after leaving the fourth stall, but found obstacles during the course. He covered the track distance in 40.36 seconds.
Third in line after the winner was the 7 to 4 favourite, Mountjoy Orion, who is trained by Mark Wallis.
When racing fourth, he got crowded and could not sustain the set up speed, and after that, he led the rest of the field to finish the race in 40.42 seconds.
The next heat had the son of Head Bound out of Dear Prudence, Fleeting Image, bolting towards the wire soon after breaking from her stall swiftly.
Kelly Findlay trained Fleeting Image managed the distance in 39.72 seconds.
Following right behind the winner was S Mason’s trainee, Bowtime Joey, who kept racing on despite being bumped into twice through the track. The runner up clocked the distance in 40.32 seconds.
As was the case in the first heat, the favourite of the race landed in the third position.
Mark Wallis’s, Aero Majestic, sent off as the 6 to 4 favourite, took 40.46 seconds to race through the distance.
The third position holders in both the heats were Mark Wallis's entered favourites.
The final and the last heat was taken away by E McNair conditioned, Express Trend.
The daughter of Kiowa Sweet Trey out of Express Mist, was quick to pace up after leaving the fifth stall.
Towards the middle she was crowded when third, but widened her strides to lead the lot, as she covered the distance in 40.07 seconds.
The second position was secured by G Hodson trained Ballymac Iniesta, who took 40.27 seconds to conclude the race, and the 4 to 5 favourite, Lonely Boy, finished fifth in 41.67 seconds.
