Darwin Greyhound Rehoming Bingo Dash Division1

Prize Money: $1,630

CONTROL BUBBA (2) comes here following a placing in fast time (18.20) over 312m at this track. In the money latest and can measure up here. SELENA'S CHANCE (1) was in the placings last time but prior to that she posted a dynamic 18.08 win over 312m at this track. Must include on winning run two back. HONEST JAN (5) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind Burnside Hunter (18.26) in a Grade 4/5. The form out of her last race has been franked. Expecting another good run. TERRITORY GIRL (7) is a last-start placegetter who will have admirers.

Was among the placegetters latest at this track when a 2.5 lengths second but did clock a speedy 18.20 over the 312m journey. Looks the one to beat with a repeat of that effort.

Won two starts back at this track over 312m in 18.10. Followed that up with a minor placing over 312m at this track at Grade 4 a week ago. Looks a solid hope.
