Gragane Girl and Balbec Jake joint favourites for the William Hill Hotbox Bet Stakes
Gragane Girl and Balbec Jake are joint favourites for winning the William Hill Hotbox Bet Stakes at Newcastle in England on Wednesday, March 28, 2012. A cash prize of £118 has been set for the winning greyhound.
A total of six quality runners will be seen in action in the 480 metres flat race, which is scheduled to start at 13:12 GMT, and their names are: Gragane Girl, Balbec Jake, Courtcraft Major, Any Plans, Corrin Brave and Tirmaquin Putt.
Gragane Girl will have the best chances of winning at Newcastle today, as she has been in exceptional form over the past couple of races. The bookies are fully aware of her form, thus they awarded her with pretty decent odds. On the other hand, the punters
will also be placing quite a few bets in her favour.
D. Calvert’s trained runner will be chasing a hat-trick of victories at Newcastle, as she has managed to win her past couple of races. She was completely dominant in her most recent run and is expected to continue such form today.
It will be extremely difficult for the rest of the runners to match the favourite b***h, who is the daughter of Hondo Black out of Sempers Girl and was born in September 2008.
Although Gragane Girl seems to be in great rhythm at the moment, she will be given a tough time by Balbec Jake, who is also in tremendous form. He has been delivering positive results over the past few months, thus the bettors will be risking some money
in his favour as well.
J. Wright’s trainee finished on top of the table in his most recent race, which indicates that he is in spectacular touch at the moment. He has been doing well consistently, which is always a positive sign for any greyhound.
The black dog is the son of Ballymac Maeve out of Green Pea and was born in September 2009.
It appears that the real battle will be amongst the top two favourites, but Courtcraft Major is also not short of confidence at the moment and will give a tough time to his rivals. He is in good flow, as his last run saw him finish on top of the table.
However, the rest of the runners do not really seem to have any chances of fighting for victory at Newcastle today.
