Nametab Kiwi has been called in as first reserve in the semi final of an A5 stake.at Thurles tonight. He is drawn in Trap1, which isnt ideal as he runs middle, buts its much preferred to traps 5 or 6 which he has had in he last 2 runs. Backed at 5/2 Bobby ran a blinder. He wouldnt give in, even after moving off towards the middle he stuck to the persistant challenge of the 3 dog. Both dogs split in 1.80, but Bobby pulled away down the back straight and kept going. Trap 3 was cutting him down all the while, but he managed to hold on to win in 29.82 by 0.5 lengths. This was 2 spots slower than the fastest time of the night. Considering the track was too wet for trials on Thursday, it was generally thought the track was about 40 slow.
Bobby is a completely different dog when drawn rails or middle. He is drawn in Trap 1 for next weeks final, so lets hope he can maintain his winning ways, as he is in the Thurles sales on 3rd February.http://www.igb.ie/Greyhounds.aspx?id=3FFE7D8E-4D23-4327-9430-E1BFD2F161D8
