Another fantastic weekend ahead at the Orange Park Kennel Club, with the best of the best at 550 and 660 yards heading to post. Also remember that we have another marathon race on the card for Friday evening.
Tune it to see some of the best greyhounds in the country head to post, and compete against each other here throughout the weekend.
The fun starts out in the 10th race on the card for Friday evening at the Orange Park Kennel Club.
1. Really Xtreme (Afleet Alex - Xtreme Hustler) just won the puppy stakes with ease from this every same post. If he comes to run, it could be back to back monster wins from this talented pup. Doing his All-American Daddy, Afleet Alex, proud again!
2. Kiowa Mc Gee (Kiowa Sweet Trey - Kiowa Wild Color) finished 4th in the stakes, but gets a much better post position in this effort. He loves the rail, and will be looking to get some revenge in this one!
3. Sunsands Dream (Extruding Dream - Sunsands Petsie) moved back to grade A with a near box to wire win in her last effort. She is best near the lead, so a big break will be needed again in this effort.
4. Steel Reserve (Iruska All Star - Gable Pops) found his break in his last race and survived at the wire to join the grade A ranks again tonight. He too is best close early, so he needs to hit the lid again here.
5. May's Amata (Can You Hear Me - Kb's Mayflower) is a bit of an all or nothing greyhound. So, above everyone else, she really needs to make sure she breaks well tonight. If she is behind early, from this tough box, forget about her.
6. Kiowa Top Design (Dodgem By Design - Flying Acme) doesn't mind the outside posts and in a race full of frontrunners, this greyhound has an edge. He can go from off or on the pace, and that will help him factor tonight.
7. Pat C Sis In Law (Lonesome Cry - Pat C Velvet Sis) took advantage of some trouble behind her in her last effort and stole away an easy victory. Here she is up in class and if she is not close early on, it could be a long evening.
8. Braska Deacon (Oshkosh Slammer - Cherry Baby) has won back to back races and 4 in his last 6 efforts. He has been breaking really well and holing on at the wire to win. If he can see the lead, he will be a tough out tonight.
Although it could be crowded early on in this race, Really Xtreme has just too much going for him not to win this effort. He has the best raw speed, the best post position, the best recent record, and he just won a stakes final over 8 lengths in his last effort! All he has to do is break around the front and he should prove unstoppable in this effort. Braska Deacon is not going to make it too easy though. He has also won 4 of his last 6 effort and with back to back scores in grade A, he knows how to get it done. He runs his best on the front end, so breaking quickly from this good post position is a must. Kiowa Mc Gee gets a great post position in this race and that might just help him have a chance at revenge in this effort. He was 4th in the finals of the stakes behind Xtreme, and it was a big race for him as he overcame trouble to drive and get there. He is getting better with every start and the more experience he has, the more he is turning into a complete greyhound. Granted he might not see the lead tonight, be he should keep on coming throughout and find a way to challenge. Kiowa Top Design is another greyhound not to be forgot about in this effort. He has all the tools needed to win this race, just like he has done so many times before in grade A. He doesn't mind the post, he has enough late speed to threaten, and he has been in the trifecta in 5 of his last 6 efforts. All he needs is a little room early on and he will be a threat again in this effort. (1-8-2-6)

Race three on the weekend will be the 15th and final one on the card for Saturday Evening.
1. Dirty Picture (Coldwater Konow - Chance With Me) is having a tough go of it in A so far, but previous he won 3 of 4 starts on the front end. With the one box tonight, he might have a shot to rebound.
2. Kanuka (Fuzzys Cannon - Well Chosen) loves the rail and gets a great post to start this race from. Up in grade, she needs to bring her A game tonight. Breaking fast will be her best asset in this effort.
3. Tipsy Brutus W (Tipsy Character - Jetstar Streaker) is a good closer over the 660 yard course and just recently won a marathon race. With a strong almost midtrack post, he should be making up ground throughout.
4. Kiowa Trent Tovi (Trent Lee - Kay V Barbierie) has moved back to 660 yards and is still getting his feet wet again over the distance. He is a strong competitor over here and should contend with every stride tonight.
5. Kiowa Vic (Flying Hydrogen - Greg Kiowa Girl) has been running tough and as long as he is close, he is a threat in any race. The post is his biggest downfall in this effort. A strict rail runner, he needs to find a way inside tonight.
6. Kelsos Puremagic (Kelsos Fusileer - Kelsos Gabriella) has taken well to the switch to 660 yards, and as long as she breaks, she is a force to be reckoned with. She has tools to win, she just needs to use them.
7. Kiowa Deli Dee (Flying Stanley - Kiowa About Deli) has not been touched in 6 efforts in a row. She has nothing but ones showing on the scoreboard. Breaking fast again, they are going to be hard pressed to stop this streak.
8. Gs Jaxson (Lewis And Wax - Gs Kayla) is riding high off a monster win in his last effort. He was clearly the best and gets another great outside post position. Not just a one trick pony, this greyhound will close and challenge here.
No doubt who to pick in this effort, Kiowa Deli Dee! This greyhound has been in a league all her own, and since moving away from Budby, no one has been able to beat her. She has broke to the lead in each of her last 6 races in a row and went box to wire for the win. All 1's showing on the page, she will continue her torrid start, and hang tough throughout as the streak continues tonight. Trying to chase her down before the finish line will be Gs Jaxson. This greyhound is completely at home from the outside part of the racetrack and is riding high off of a huge victory in his last effort. He won't be able to match the early speed of Deli Dee as they go thru the early stages, but he might be able to chip away at it throughout. If he can get to her before the stretch run, he might have a chance to win. Kiowa Trent Tovi is a better breaker and should be forcing the pace from the starting box to the wire in this effort. Sure he wishes he was a bit more on the rail, but he will do ok from the 4 box tonight. If he can get some help, he is not out of the realm of possible winners of this race. Closing is Tipsy Brutus W forte and he will be showcasing that once again in this effort. Near the midtrack here in the 3 box, he should be at home at the start. As long as he can get around cleanly, he will continue to move forward in this effort. If he does decide to break well, it could be really interesting at the finish line tonight. (7-8-4-3)

The second feature race on the weekend comes our way in the 11th race on the card for Saturday Matinee.
1. Farve's A Viking (Flying Stanley - Greys Bombayduck) can be tough when he gets clear, but you never really know when that is. Tonight could be a touchdown or an interception! We'll have to wait and see.
2. Smokin Az Becket (Team Record* - Ptl Linda) likes to race from the rail and gets to start near it in this race. He has good early speed and when he breaks well, he can contend. He needs to step up again today.
3. Kiowa Gooddesign (Dodgem By Design - Flying Acme) is the best early speed greyhound in this race and could wire this field on the lead everything goes his way. Posted up well today, it might just be box to wire time again.
4. Howdoyoulikethat (Lonesome Cry - Here's The Thing) is back in grade A hot off a win in this last effort. He is all rail all the time and will need a clear path to get there today. If he can hit the lid again, watch out!
5. Ru Tuff Enuf (Let's Winendine - Faith Keeper) is in a TUFF post here in the 5 box, but it's time to overcome it and get back to winning. He will get room early on, empty box & rail breaker, let's see what he does with it.
6. Where's Lil Tiny (Lonesome Cry - Cm Lil Bit) is all about being close early on in the race. Without a solid break, she will be overmatched in this effort. If she does decide to come out running, she might have a chance.
7. Big Drama (Get Over - Rooftop Flojo) is a solid grade A competitor that finds herself in another tough post. She loves the rail, and breaking outside is not her forte. Look for her to close though, and threaten late.
8. Se's Roda Ram (Kiowa Sweet Trey - Winfra Ramora) is tough when she can get to the lead, but she has not been as consistent as she has wanted to be. Still getting used to the new surroundings, today she could be upset minded again.
Time to see if he really is Tuff Enuf. Recently this 5 box has given him fits, but he clearly the choice in this field. He has the best skills and the best raw talent, he just needs to put them together once again. He will get a bit of a break here as the 2 thru 4 greyhounds will all go to the rail early on, and give him some extra room to rush the turn. With the closing speed he posses, all he has to do is be around early on and he should prove best at the finish line. Dukeing it out on the early lead will be Kiowa Gooddesign and Smokin Az Becket. Both greyhounds are posted up, both greyhounds have great early speed, and both want the lead and the win in this effort. If they both decide to show off all they have from the starting box, either one of them could pull off the upset in this race. Slight edge early to Gooddesign as he is just a step better from the box, but the late edge goes the other way as Becket is not quite as short as Gooddesign is in the stretch. If there is trouble behind, one of these two should be the winner. Trying to make all the early speed moot will be Big Drama. This greyhound is the best closer in the field and can come on with the best of them at the racetrack in the stretch. He biggest hurdle in this effort is the post position. She loves to race on the rail and has to start out this effort on the outside once again! She has been stuck there for 6 efforts in a row and has only one in the money effort to show for it. Breaking well would go a long way to help her out in this effort. (5-3-2-7)
