Dogs to follow

Form expert Dale Code has picked out a selection of greyhounds to follow from around Victoria. You may even want to add them to your Blackbook account.

ASTON JONAS
Breeding: Dec ’19 Aston Kimetto x Aston Jadore
Trainer: Ian Garland, Longlea
Record: 14 starts 6-2-1

Dale says: “Aston Jonas burst on to the racing scene with some brilliant wins including a dashing 27.18sec Horsham win on debut and a red-hot 33.90sec win over 595m at Sandown Park back in December last year. He returned from injury after a four-month layoff in April and he appears to be back to his best following an eye-catching 34.37sec win at The Meadows on Saturday night. Aston Jonas is a tenacious chaser and a chance in any race he contests over the middle distances, particularly off an inside draw.”

Best traits: Tenacious chaser; powerful run-home sectionals
Ideal draw: Box 1
Ideal distance: 600m

WATCH: ASTON JONAS (2) produced a great finishing burst to overhaul FERNANDO’S QUEST (7) in 34.37 seconds at The Meadows (600m) on May 28. Results

BEDROCK FRED
Breeding: May ‘19 Spring Gun x Dashing Dee Dee
Trainer: Graeme Jose, Catani
Record: 56 starts 13-15-13

Dale says: “Bedrock Fred is one of the most underrated and most travelled stayers currently racing. He has made four Group race finals and won multiple races in three different states. He recently moved down to Victoria to the strong Graeme Jose kennel and has turned in three big runs at Sandown Park including a desperately unlucky fourth in a heat of the Group 1 Sandown Cup. Bedrock Fred is still racing as well as ever and he can add some more wins to his already impressive resume in the near future.”

Best traits: Great versatility; experienced campaigner
Ideal draw: Box 1
Ideal distance: 700m

WATCH: BEDROCK FRED (2) never shirked the task when second to DRAKO BALE (4) in a winning time of 41.93 seconds at Sandown Park (715m) on May 26. Results

ASTON SUZETTE
Breeding: Jan ’20 Aston Kimetto x Aston Dinnigan
Trainer: Paul Abela, Parwan
Record: 12 starts 6-2-0

Dale says: “Love the progression shown by this talented sprinter, who has already posted some scorching wins around the provincial circuit. Aston Suzette has had just the 12 starts for six wins and is engaged to run at Shepparton tonight, where I am expecting her to add to her impressive record. Still learning and with more improvement, Aston Suzette has the potential to mix it at Group level around the provincial circuit.”

Best traits: Can lead or come off the speed
Ideal draw: Box 1
Ideal distance: 450m

“Still learning and with more improvement, Aston Suzette has the potential to mix it at Group level around the provincial circuit.”
