Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 2, 2023 Journalists Share Posted May 2, 2023 Form expert Dale Code has picked out a selection of greyhounds to follow from around Victoria. You may even want to add them to your Blackbook account. SHIMA SHADOW (Box 7)Breeding: June ’21 Bernardo x Shima SongTrainer: Tom Dailly (Anakie)Record: 7 starts 5-0-0 Dale says: Shima Shadow is a potential superstar who made a big statement when he ran down gun sprinter Unleash Collinda in a heat of the Group 2 Ballarat Cup recently. He has won five of his seven starts and shown he can either lead or come off the speed to win posting elite times along the way. Shima Shadow is yet to turn two years of age and the son of boom sire Bernardo appears set for stardom. Best traits: Sustained speedIdeal draw: Box 8Ideal distance: 525 metres Results Add Shima Shadow to your Blackbook HERE RAPIDFIRE GIRL (Box 7)Breeding: January ’21 Barcia Bale x Wynburn LuciferTrainer: Brett Hare (Greendale)Record: 14 starts 5-1-2 Dale says: Rapidfire Girl is a greyhound on the rise that is going to win her fair share of races around the provincial circuit. Armed with a great turn of speed, she will be hardest to beat when she draws out wide as her box manners are a little tardy but she makes up for them with her exceptional acceleration. Best traits: Serious turn of footIdeal draw: Box 8Ideal distance: 425 metres Results Add Rapidfire Girl to your Blackbook HERE MEPUNGA LOAF (Box 4)Breeding: August ’21 Fernando Bale x Mepunga SpectreTrainer: Jeff Britton (Anakie)Record: 7 starts 2-0-1 Dale says: Mepunga Loaf has only had seven starts for two wins and one third, but his improvement is rapid which has coincided with the step up to middle-distance racing. Mepunga Loaf has made a few mistakes in his races, but he clearly has the talent and scope with further improvement to turn into a more than handy middle-distance performer. Best traits: Sustained speedIdeal draw: Box 1Ideal distance: 650 metres Results Add Mepunga Loaf to your Blackbook HERE RELATEDDOGS TO FOLLOW – 17 APRILDOGS TO FOLLOW – 3 APRILDOGS TO FOLLOW – 20 MARCHDOGS TO FOLLOW – 6 MARCHDOGS TO FOLLOW – 20 FEBRUARYDOGS TO FOLLOW – 6 FEBRUARYDOGS TO FOLLOW – 23 JANUARYDOGS TO FOLLOW – 9 JANUARYDOGS TO FOLLOW – 27 DECEMBERDOGS TO FOLLOW – 12 DECEMBER Dale Code is a professional form analyst and son of champion Melbourne Cup-winning trainer, the late Judy Hayley.
