THREE Category One finals take place today as Towcester and Crayford dominate the open-race schedule with the English Puppy Derby at the former and the Jay & Kay Coach Tours Gold Collar and Ladbrokes Grand National finals at the latter.

A WEEK tonight Nottingham will be the focus of a third Gone To Dogs - Live! broadcast with the £20,000-to-the-winner Premier Greyhound Racing Eclipse centre-stage - and three brilliant semi-finals of the Category One competition take place at Colwick Park tonight.

THEY say you never remember beaten semi-finalists, but such has been the quality of this year's BoyleSports Irish Greyhound Derby at Shelbourne Park that whoever bows out at this crucial stage will be recalled as playing their part in a Classic - literally!

BRINDLE BULLY (9.14) gets a narrow vote to kick off a fantastic weekend for Romford trainer David Mullins with victory in the Premier Greyhound Racing Classic Final, tonight's showpiece event at Sunderland.

HOVE certainly saves the best for last on a decent card at the Sussex venue tonight, live on the Premier Greyhound Racing service.
