Competition Report

The Daily Mirror took over sponsorship of the event from Spillers; they had already sponsored the Grand National and Puppy Oaks. There were 213 entries and topping the ante-post lists were Game Ball trained by Irishman Sean Bourke and Scurry Gold Cup champion Yankee Express.[5]

Heavy rain produced slow times on the opening night with Yankee Express recording 30.37. With the qualifying round being held over four nights the going improved dramatically and Game Ball won in 29.43. Game Ball was then defeated by Whisper Wishes in round one but both qualified. The second round saw the field down to 48 and Game Ball produced the fastest heat win. Long Spell and Yankee Express both won but Whisper Wishes made it no further after being badly bumped.[5]

The quarter-finals provided two very strong heats, Game Ball and Yankee Express were drawn together in heat two and the final heat contained Debbycot Lad, I'm Slippy and Long Spell. Amazing Man won heat one before Yankee Express missed the break and found trouble in heat two and would take no further part in the Derby. Game Ball only finished second behind 50-1 shot Lisnamuck. The third heat went to On Spec and the final heat was claimed by I'm Slippy with Long Spell going out after encountering crowding.[5]

Game Ball moved into the final after clinching his semifinal from Debbycott Lad and On Spec. The 9-4 joint favourites Amazing Man and I'm Slippy went neck and neck in the second semi before Amazing Man claimed the race.[5]

Game Ball lined up for the final as the evens money favourite and made a moderate start unlike I'm Slippy who was very fast away. There was crowding at the first bend but Debbycott Lad and On Spec showed enough pace to sit behind the leader, as they approached the third bend the race was wide open. Five of the six greyhounds passed the line together with I'm Slippy just holding on in a photo-finish.[5]

Supporting Races

Five track records fell on the Derby final night including that of the Derby distance when Hay Maker Mack won the English Greyhound Derby Invitation and became the first ever dog to break the 29-second barrier, posting 28.95 sec. Hay Maker Mack had won a Derby heat before being knocked out and his racing career ended soon afterwards, when he sustained a broken hock during the Essex Vase at Romford. The other four track records were; Pagan Pansy 29.88 (500 metres hurdles), Sir Winston 30.38 (500 metres chase), Ceili Lass 40.75 (680 metres) and Minnis Matador 43.82 (730 metres).[7]
