Its time for the big one, the Greyhound Derby reaches its conclusion at Wimbledon on Saturday. The final plus an excellent supporting card including the likes of Spiridon Louis and Barnfield On Air is live on Sky Sports 2. If you're sampling the action for real I'll see you there.

Speed Figs

T5 Tyrur Laurel 100
T1 Kryptonite 92
T2 Lenson Express 91
T4 Loyal Honcho 90
T3 Tyrur Kieran 74+
T6 Blonde Dino 68

Tyrur Laurel (rec. at 25/1 ante-post) has really come into form in the last couple of rounds and heads the figures. My main concern for him would be having Loyal Honcho on his inside as both dogs could well head into the first bend side by side. Kryptonite is next best and he has the trap 1 Derby bogey to overcome. He could well lead this field though and if he does he may well become the first red jacketed winner since the race moved to Wimbledon.

Skydogs Tissue

Using the speed figures plus a little tinkering for the draw I've come up with these prices for the race -

5/2 Tyrur Laurel, 7/2 Kryptonite, 4/1 Loyal Honcho, Lenson Express, 14/1 Tyrur Kieran, 18/1 Blonde Dino

Tyrur Laurel and Kryptonite can be backed with the bookies at 3/1 and 4/1 respectively and I couldn't put anyone off at those odds. Lenson Express is the dog with the biggest difference in prices with 33/1 available with the layers. He hasn't got his nose in front in the competition yet but neither had Westmead Lord at this stage last year and he went on to win when it mattered. Long time ante-post favourite Tyrur Kieran has looked vunerable in the last couple of rounds and although he may improve for a weeks rest he certainly need to and I couldn't be on him at 3/1.

Its a cracking final and one of the most wide open for years. We're already on Tyrur Laurel at 25/1 each way so there's a payout coming for a place at least. Charlie Lister's Kryptonite is worth a saver at 4/1 with Skybet while Lenson Express has to be worth a small punt at a silly price or probably even better value will be a cheap buy on the spreads.

Finally, good luck to all the connections and lets hope all the dogs come home safe and sound.
