Pats Bond likely to prevail in the William Hill Hotbox Bet Stakes at Sunderland – Greyhound Racing Preview
Sunderland is all set to host many thrilling races including the William Hill Hotbox Bet Stakes on Thursday, February 09, 2012. The 450 metre long Grade A3 heat is scheduled to kick off at 13:51.
The event has a strong line-up, which comprises of Elwick Paymaster, Dower Maid, Pats Bond, Farloe Zeus, Express Blade, and Ballyhill Midas.
Every single hound holds the potential to display an impressive show and therefore, it is quite hard to predict anything. However, an in-depth statistical analysis will give an idea about the possible favourite.
According to the betting forecast so far, Pats Bond is the most favourite hound, holding the winning chances of 9 to 4. The Bookmakers justified in acknowledging her the most proffered, as she is stepping into the battle with some thrilling performances
under her belt.
Despite showing a brilliant run, the black b***h could not surpass, We Have Noir in her last outing. She finished second on the table, remaining behind by 4 ¼ lengths. However, one cannot overlook the fact that she has sealed three wins in her previous
five 450m races.
After an embarrassing result last time around, her confidence might be a bit shaky, but Bond’s daughter, out of Pretty Doll is likely to steal the party if she manages to get off to a good start.
Express Blade can be termed as the second favourite in the competition. Since his last victory on January 17, the dog has not been exhibiting anything wonderful.
In both of his last two outings, Killahan Phanter’s son, out of Express Smasher got crowded in the middle, and failed to impress his fans. However, the dog cannot afford any further slip ups, as the supporters are demanding a big run from him tonight.
Looking at Dower Maid’s recent stats, one will find a lot of good performances. The b***h could only seal the runner-up place in her last race, but she clinched two back-to-back wins last month.
Killahan Phanter’s daughter, out of Ballinahina Maid has decent chances to trouble the favourites, but for that she will have to perform out of her skin.
Farloe Zeus is carrying a lot of hopes on his shoulders, as his fans are expecting a big performance from him. The white and black dog made two below-par outings last month, but started off this month on a good note.
Despite that he could not win his last race, the hound improved his standing dramatically from six to two. The son Yeah Man, out of Farloe Reserve will be full of confidence and thus, the Bookies have a few good reasons to anticipate an upset.
Ballyhill Midas and Elwick Paymaster are not expected to do something different. Considering their recent poor record, it is hard to pin up many hopes on them.
After having a glance at the latest stats, one can say that the real contest will be between Pats Bond and Express Blade. Putting money on Dower Maid might be a risk, but his potential to spring up a surprise cannot be ignored.
