Monday night’s 10 event card features 3 heats of the Illingsworth classic and have brought together some of the state’s best young greyhounds. Heat 1 (race 4) will be a very good contest with the smart Supreme It Seems (box 8), He’s All Class (box 7) and Miss Stylist (box 2) looking the main chances. Heat 2 (race 5) will be a terrific contest with the very smart Keune (box 1) and the in-form Penny’s Roman (box 2) clashing in what looks to be a match race. Heat 3 (race 6) has the flying Katey Roman (box 2), Lil’ Miss Marny (box 4) recent breeder’s classic winner Wynburn Toozie (box 8) and the very capable Bassett (box 1) in what should be a fantastic event.
