Outpouring of support

Following yesterdays news that Dallas1 had been hospitalised there's been a wonderful reaction from the Getminted racing Community. At the time of writing almost 100 messages of support have been posted on the forum pages showing how tight-knit and caring those involved are. Well done guys and gals I'm sure Dallas would be overwhelmed by the reaction of his co-owners and friends.

For all tonight's top getminted racing tips please clcik on read more.......



The Contender - 8:12 - 17/2

I've backed this 5 year old fillie in the past but on both occassions she let me down (story of my life!) but hopefully tonight will be third time lucky! Currently in an excellent run of form the bellamy stables trained girl has won once and finished in the places in six of her last seven races though some were in smallish fields. With 8 wins and 15 placed finishes out of 39 races shes certainly going in the right direction and though shes in a high quality field tonight I feel her familiarity with races of this grade will stand to her. Good each way potential.

Gower Peninsula - 8:24 - 20/1

This Welsh wizard favours the muddy going and will relish the opportunity to pass the £400 in earnings marker with a good run in Canada this evening. A winner when last in a Level weight race on the 19th of July the 3 year old colt has impressed in recent weeks and owners Starskey will expect another big run from Gower Peninsula tonight. Total stats read 32 races, 7 wins and 14 places and at 20/1 she represents really good value to at least nick a place.

Sompting Roses - 9:36 - 6/1

A veteran at this stage Sompting Roses is on personal terms with every blade of grass at getminted's race tracks! The 6 year old fillie has her eyes firmly fixed on the 50 winners mark and may well go one step closer to that milestone tonight. In 187 races the derekw10 trained fillie has won in 46 races (25% win to run ratio) and has been placed in 71.This legend enjoyed great success under the guidance of Dallas1 but has continued to impress since joing the current stable in e of this year.
