Keep your Options open with Lorrys in the Jacket

Lorry Options the winner of the 2009 Golden Jacket can roll back the years to recapture the title in 2011.

Top-class greyhound action is back with a bang in mid February when Crayford’s major competition of the year the Golden Jacket gets underway. This 8-bend event always attracts a top-class entry and seems sure to do so again this year and the greyhound odds are always worth a look.

Crayford is a very unique circuit with its tight bends and short straights and it is certainly a venue where course specialists thrive. One such specialist is the Dean Childs trained Lorrys Options, although this class act can boast has achieved many notable victories at more galloping circuits too. The November 06 veteran showed his class by winning this event in 2009 and was strongly fancied to double up in 2010, however his campaign there was cut cruelly short as injury intervened, the dog suffered a rushed preparation and failed to complete the course in his heat.

It is a different story for this campaign though, the dog returned from a nice winter break to hack up at Monmore last week, beating a classy field in the process and with his liking for the C&D proven he looks well worth a bet.
As mentioned this is always a strong event runners like: Honey Trampass, Blue Bee and TV Trophy champion Midway Skipper are all offered maximum respect and would be worthy champions. However, the early and middle gears of Lorrys Options are what set him apart from the crowd and he can show that age is no barrier because class is permanent.

Rossi has options

Serie A side Fiorentina are one of a number of Italian sides considering making a move for Italy international Giuseppe Rossi. The striker currently plays in Spain with Villarreal. The former Manchester United youngster was came off the bench in his country’s last friendly match, n the 1-0 defeat to the Ivory Coast. USA born Rossi scored 14 times in all competitions last season in La Liga, narrowly avoiding being called up for his country’s disastrous World Cup campaign earlier this summer.

Serie A betting pundits note how Rossi joined Villarreal in the summer of 2007 after two years in England. The striker has gained a reputation as one of Europe’s best striking prospects since he moved to Spain. It never really worked out for Rossi in England, only making a handful of appearances for the first team at United before spending an unsuccessful loan spell at Newcastle. A return to Manchester had been mentioned but the 23 year old has stated that a move to England isn’t in his plans.

Fiorentina are looking for a striker after Stevan Jovetic was ruled out for much of the upcoming season with injury. Head coach Sinisa Mihajlovic had targeted Rossi as his first choice. Aside from a brief loan spell at Parma, Rossi’s experience of Serie A is pretty limited. Manchester United sent Rossi to Parma to gain some first team experience in 2007.

In his 19 game loan spell, Rossi impressed Online Betting punters with nine goals. Despite interest from teams in Serie A, Rossi chose to move to Spain and has been a hit since he arrived. It remains to be seen how loyal Rossi would be to his current employers if one of the big boys of Italian football made an approach for him however.
