Towcester Race 14 - The Star Sports & Orchestrate English Greyhound Derby 2026 R1 - Heat 28
THE OTHER CHIEF (3) was out of the placings when fourth last time but prior to that clocked an outstanding 29.03 win over 500m at Towcester. Has the ability and expected to go close again. NEWINN DEEJAY (5) could manage only sixth at Romford last time but impressed when clocking an outstanding 35.05 over 575m at Romford the start prior. Smart winner two back and looks a key chance on that form. FARMWAY SHADY (1) could manage only fourth at Hove last time but caught the eye when clocking a strong 16.55 over 285m at Hove three starts back. Expecting another bold showing. CARRICK FERGIE (2) claimed a OR3 when returning from a break, scoring by 4 lengths at Nottingham last start over 255m (14.96). Rises in grade but expected to measure up.

Got back early in the race last start when fourth over 480m at Dunstall Park. Before that won by a head at Nottingham (30.70) beating Kind Cian in a IT on April 13. Will not find this easy. Not keen.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th in an A0 on March 28 over 480m at Curraheen Park behind Princess Rosie beaten 2.75 lengths (28.73). Happy to risk in this.
