Hi Chook. The Derby prizemoney is good, very good but I believe from reading the other contributions on this matter that it is a sweepstake race. I am not sure how much is put in by the participants. It is the normal week to week racing on their major tracks where I believe the prizemoney is not good relative to our major tracks. I very much took note on my many visits to the Ladbrokes betting shop on Chiswick High Street, London, of the prizemoney. It was not good, it was poor. My main interest was to see what greyhounds by Australian sires were racing. Overall they did very well. Top Honcho has been an amazing success over there for a long time. I had minimal interest at the time he was racing in Australia but I have been told that he was nothing special. I did look up his form once on GRV site. I seem to recall he had a win at Angle Park in fast time. Hey, is Kamikaze Spirit who I saw race at Dapto last night one of the dogs about which you have written. If so, I thought he was going to win last night but there seemed to be an awful lot going on between the 3 or so dogs in front. He finished up very wide. Not sure what the winner Jayden's Rocket was doing but he did kick at the finish to win again. I have to admit to not being a great analyst of a race especially when I see it only the once, that is, without the benefit of replays. Good luck with all of your dogs.
