May, 2012
On 4th May, 2012, Wimbledon hosted the Williamhill.com Greyhound Derby 2nd Rnd Heats 7 and 8, which covered a distance of 480 metres.

Tinas Nova, trained by S. Muldoon emerged victorious from Heat 7 with the help of his brisk pace and an ability to break free from the pack to secure the victory.

The race did not end in an expected manner for the punters and trainer M O'Donovan, as the race favourite, Tynwald Bolt, finished in sixth place, despite having the favoured odds of 10 to 11.
The son of Head Bound, out of Belvedere Olivia, could not keep up with the pace of the race, and was forced to stop in the middle of the track as, Hey Gringo, bumped into him.
