DOGS THIS WEEK 3/8/09 + UK GREYHOUNDS NEWS

ENGLAND DOGS
There was a report in the media that many UK dog tracks have been closed down
One great track is the HULL dog track which closed in June 2009
Dunno why, they only charged $5 pound entry fee !
Is UK dog racing on the brink ?
Did some checking and found nothing about the closures
HISTORY OF UK DOGS
1533-1603 was a period when it is thought that Coursing events took place
1876 Mechanical lure on a straight track with 6 dogs running
1912 CircuLar mechanical lure was invented by O P Smith in the U.S.[1919 first track in California]
1926 First track in the UK was Bell Vue at Manchester
1985 Mal went to Wimbledon Greyhounds and lost
2009 Is UK dogs in trouble ?
BRETT LEE
Champion greyhound Brett Lee has thousands of offspring running around the world
In the UK his prodgeny are going very well
Some of his breed are the Magna dogs
Magna Boycott/MagnaTrueman/Magna Gough all dogs named after English cricketers
Magna Flintoff is a star there at the moment
I bought a 1985 Magna once, a f...g lemon
DID YOU KNOW
A greyhound runs at about 64kmh an hour
Thats almost a speeding fine

5... $5-00
6... $8-00
7... $5-00
8... $11-00
SELECTIONS
3-1-5-2
Dunno about 1-6-7-8 could be completely wrong with thier odds
I reckon 2 is a PLACE bet
5 should be there EW
My selection is
R8-3 SLEDGE
will be a long way back early, but will be running on very very late in the race at odds
Im expecting about $8 on the TABS
EW
RATIO 1 WIN 3 PLACES
I think backing 2-3-5 EW if good odds is the safest option
