Wimbledon Stadium is ready to open its traps for the Williamhill.com St Leger
Wimbledon Stadium is all set for the upcoming big event, Williamhill.com St Leger Final, which has been scheduled on the 4th of October, 2011.
Prior to the quest for the final, three more events of the Williamhill.com St Leger meeting are required to be cleared.
The 687 meters race will start with the Heats, which entail a total prize money of £2,200, out of which the winners of the Heats will be rewarded £100.
Along with the purse money, the winners will qualify for the next round, the quarter-finals of the Williahill.com St Leger.
The quarter-finals will cover the same distance in the Heats, 687 meters, and is scheduled at the Wimbledon Stadium.
The amount of the total prize money for the quarter-finals, £1,100, is less than the Heats' purse. However, the winner's purse is the same amount, £100.
The winners of the Williamhill.com St Leger Quarter-Finals will qualify for the semi-finals.
The 687 meters semi-finals is the third event prior to the finale.
Although the hounds who will finish second won’t receive a purse, they will be given a chance to enter the finals.
The Williamhill.com St Leger Semi-Finals will be held, carrying a total prize money of £700.
The winner will not only be rewarded with £100, but will also qualify for the finals.
Lastly, the finals of the Williamhill.com St Leger will be held at the same venue, Wimbledon Stadium, covering the same distance of 687 meters.
Among the six hounds, only one lucky hound will grab the spotlight to win the purse of £8,000, out of the total prize money of £11,450.
This year, Droopys Bradley, a black dog, is expected to win the title of Williamhill.com St Leger.
Under the training of his owner, P M Donovan, the three-year-old hound ran amazingly in the 2010 Williamhill.com St. Leger Final, in urge to give a hit.
With superb pace, the champ not only won the major event, but he was also honoured with the title of GBGB (Greyhound Board of Great Britain) Stayer Of The Year 2010.
Covering the 687 meters distance in 41.48 seconds, Droopys Bradley defeated many renowned hounds, posing a tough competition for him.
This year, P M Donovan has his fingers crossed for the war and he is hoping that his hound will set the track on fire, throughout the event, starting from the Heats till the finals.
