Double Double

A nice double today from two greyhounds who were both notching a double also.
Copper Maverick won last week in A5 and did the business in A4 this time, the winning distance of 3 1/2L was no fluke as the son of Paradise Madison had to shrug off early crowding before stretching away in 28.82.
Gunga Din got in even more trouble when missing the kick and being crowded but it shows that he too is improving quickly with a 3L success in A7 in 28.20.

Flying without wings!

Ok people its round up time. We kicked off the week in fantastic style on Monday with an incredible 5-timer!
After getting injured back in June, the super classy Roys Boy was on the comeback trail and it was only a matter of time in A4 as he was A1. 6/4 said today was the day and so it proved as the son of Droopys Scolari made no mistake by winning in 28.96.
Next on the rostrum was the Belle Vue recruit Copper Maverick, one troubled sighter in A5 was all the nippy Paradise Madison fella needed to find his feet..and how..28.88, Bosh!

Next up was Lahana Ace, only out of the first three once in nine races to date, upped to A5 without winning then upped to A4 without winning too, some say that is harsh but it didn't stop the son of Ace Hi Rumble scoring by 3 3/4L in 29.05!
The kennel reeled off the next two races on the card courtesy of Cee Jay Kickham and Gunga Din.
CJ appreciated the drop to A5 when staying out wide to win by a head in 28.96. Gunga Din recorded her first Monmore win since arriving from Peterborough when proving too strong for A8 class for a 29.44 gold.

Two more winners followed on Wednesday's BAGS card in the shape of Manilla Slippy and the evergreen Standbye Athena.
After losing his way from a debut A4, Manilla Slippy had 'slipped' to A8 and came second, clearly the grader has mystical powers as he was put up a grade for his troubles but duly obliged in A7 to record a P.B of 29.43.
Athena, a recent edition to the '100 club' showed she is no back number when ripping up an A7 in a new recent P.B of 29.07!


To say the squad is flying is an understatement....go team West View!

Teeny

Just the one win on Friday's afternoon card. Headiton Teeny avoided trouble when quick away and wide in S4, this in form girl skipped away to win by 6L in 38.26!

We're flying without wings!

No less than four winners on Thursday at tut' Green.
First up was Santas Ace in A3, the black son of Ace Hi Rumble led at the first to win well in 28.69.
Coolagown Blush took the step up into Open class in her stride when proving too classy for her rivals over 630m, winning easily in 38.56.
We also won the 480m Open with Moanteen Archie, he looked to be going places after that A2 romp and so it proved here.An early paced demolition to win in 28.51.
Finally on the card, classy new recruit Dainty Hunter quickly put the A5 to bed with 29.18 despite crowding and can climb higher for sure.

On the same card, Staff Rebel made it win number three from his last six races when collecting the S2 in 38.93 and never headed in the process.
We scored a double on Saturday also, Hea Iton Teeny won S3 by 3 1/2L in 39.41 then the versatile Blue Majestic was too good for the other despite crowding when winning the S on the card by 1/4L in 38.34

Cheers Rich

Talking of Pennys Gatsby, many thanks to kennel stalwart Richard Taylor for snapping  him up along with Holy Wayne, the very best of luck to you mate.

Three more

Following on from wicked Wednesday, the kennel had another three winners on Thursday night.
Rich Spirit is quickly ascending the graded tree with wins at A4, A3 and now A2.
Proud Mel made us feel just that when winning the 480m Maiden Open at 8/1 in 28.69.
Pennys Gatsby has an enviable 50% strike rate at Monmore and finished no less than 4th in all eight of his races to date. Like Rich Spirit he had to share the spoils as the judge couldnt split it but a winner is a winner.

Only 1/4 share left in Exciting Prospect

The Irish St Leger worth £30,000 to the winner.

SIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not very often any trainer gets six winners on a card but today was certainly our day.
First up was Pegs Berry who doubled her win tally to 2 when taking the A8 by 5L in 29.64.
Next in line was Funny Eyes, a recent winner in A7 company she was straight back down after one unsuccessful outing in A6, the result was the same, a 29.63 win by 2 1/4L.
Smokestack Vikki proved that her last win was no fluke when defying a double upgrade to land the A6 by 1/4L in 29.40 and make it two wins from her first three races.
Slaneyside Angel emulated Vikki in the very next race when recorded a double in A8 this time, 29.71 by 1 1/2L.
Blue Velvet, without a win since way back in March exploded to life when running right away from her A9 rivals to record a 9 1/2L victory in 29.39.
Finally Romeo Interstate put the icing on the cake with another incredibly impressive performance in A6. This handsome son of Superior Product blasted out to lead all the way by 7 3/4L in 29.00......what a performance from the kennels and a massive pat on the back to all the staff at West View, great team!!

Chicken Dinners!

Santas Ace, without a win since June was grateful for the graders mercy on Wednesday. Dropped for the first time into A4 since that rapid A6 win back in early Summer, the son of Ace Hi Rumble made no mistake when winning by 4 1/2L in 28.86.
On Thursday, Slaneyside Angel, a baby April 16' puppy, put it all together on her fifth start when successful in A9 class in 29.86.
Today we scored a treble at the Green kicking off with Coolagown Blush. She had been upgraded to A3 despite not winning any of her three A4 races. She gradually improved after six attempts however and led all the way to record 29.02.
Forest Bressie was the middle leg of the treble when scoring by 2L in S4 in 39.30.
Finally Pointless Paloma confirmed she was well treated by the grader when winning as she liked in A5 in 28.93, having previously mixed it in A2 class at Central Park.
