SOUTHLAND Preview - 2015 $20,000 SPRING FUTURITY STAKES Finals are Friday, May 1

The 2015 Southland $20,000 Spring Futurity Stakes finals are Friday, May 1 along with the consolation race and what an impressive group of talented greyhounds it is that will do battle for the title. It will make for a very exciting and entertaining evening at the track as they go paw to paw in the chase for the stakes trophy. Listed below are how MONEYMAKER MIKE's picks did as well as the line up for the title race. I had previously picked the 8 greyhounds who I felt would make the finals and now that the consolation and finals are set, of the 16 greyhounds running tonight I'm glad to report that 7 of my original 8 picks are in those two races. Three of my picks made the finals and four of my picks made the consolation race and I look forward to see how they fare on Friday, May 1. My picks that I made on April 10 to make the finals are listed in bold type below.
