Eyes down for Super Saturday - another one! - as two major events begin tonight.
Some 24 hours on from the start of the Premier Greyhound Racing Champion Stakes at Romford, both the Premier Greyhound Racing Oaks at Perry Barr and the Premier Greyhound Racing Kent Derby at Central Park begin with some brilliant heats and races at both venues.
Starting with Perry Barr and a crackerjack start to the bitches' Classic sees ante-post favourites Avongate Venus (7.01) and Druids Say Go clash.
It's a brilliant way to kick off proceedings and preference is for Phil Milner's Avongate Venus who looks marginally better drawn than the Yarmouth Derby champion and gets the narrowest of notes. Either way, a fantastic race looks in store.
Barry Denby's Leighas Dream (7.18), who wasn't disgraced at Doncaster recently and brings all-round pace to the table, gets the vote in heat two, while Kevin Hutton's Rioja Maxi (7.36) showed enough pace at Perry Barr last week to suggest she could be tough to hold in heat three.
Hutton is then fancied to land a double courtesy of Swindon Produce winner Southfield Poppy (7.53) in heat four, before Liz McNair's brilliant Queen Joni (8.11) takes to the stage in heat five. A multiple big-race winner, she looks a huge player outright.
Kevin Proctor's Romford Golden Sprint victor Front Alice (8.28) can hit her rivals for six in heat six before Matt Dartnall's improving-post-break Distant Cara (8.44) could be tough to hold in heat seven after a solid win seven days ago.
Maxine Locke's hugely pacey Droopys Eunice (9.02), a three-time Category One finalist, can use her early pace to seal the deal in heat eight, the last of the night.
Moving on to the Kent Derby and King Memphis (8.54) is the headline act at Central Park, with Liz McNair's runner tough to oppose.
Comeback trials and runs have been impressive and the Derby finalist takes some holding with his best foot forward - albeit respect is due to possible leader Crossfield Enzo.
Patrick Janssens' rapid Droopys Doughnut (7.44) gets the vote in the opening heat and could also go well outright - albeit the strong Keylogues Runner will be picking up strong in behind.
Other Kent Derby fancies are Derek Knight's Coral Sussex Cup champion Newinn Benni (8.01), Richard Rees's Uncle Freddie (8.19), who never gives up and ran well behind King Memphis last time, Paul Donovan's unbeaten and improving local Tintreach Trueno (8.36) and Dave Lee's El Tornillo (9.11). The latter is one of the fastest dogs in training when given room to run.
