Jayfkay highlight of Ruth’s English Derby treble

Razldazl Jayfkay created history in the second round of the williamhill.com English Derby at Wimbledon when posting new figures for the 480 metre trip.

It was a special run from a greyhound clearly at the peak of his powers and as a result he has been cut to 3-1 for outright success with the sponsors. In victory Jayfkay was completing a wonderful second round treble for Dolores Ruth which had been initiated the previous evening by Razldazl Rioga and Razldazl Bugatti.

Jayfkay was the star however. Sent to traps a 2-5 favourite for Heat 13 he absolutely rocketed from trap five and was clear a long way before the turn. Pulling further and further clear he eventually hit the line thirteen and a half lengths ahead of fellow Irish raider Droopys Jet in a magical 28.08, taking some nine spots off the previous best set in last year’s competition by Taylors Sky.
