Daily Greyhound Tips – Wednesday March 26

Ballarat: Race 4 7:28pm AEDT
No. 2 Hunter Fred

Hunter Fred returns to the races for the first time since copping a severe check and tailing out at Geelong in January. 

When right, the son of Aston Dee Bee is a talented chaser which he demonstrated when winning eight from 10 starts late last year. 

One of those wins included his only previous start over this course and distance when he recorded a slick 21.84 seconds. 

He has the speed to lead from box 2. 

Ballarat: Race 9 9:08pm AEDT
No. 7 Paw Gertrude

Paw Gertrude could not have been more impressive in her first two career starts. 

The daughter of Allen Deed led all the way from this box on debut over this course and distance for a 5.5 length win in 25.24 seconds. 

She backed it up with an equally stylish win last start when clocking 25.10 seconds from box 8. 

I expect her to cross to the front and give this field a drubbing.   

Ballarat: Race 10 9:28pm AEDT
No. 3 Paw Hazeldon

Paw Hazeldon is the littermate of Paw Gertrude and can make it back-to-back wins for the family. 

The Mark Delbridge-trained dog powered home on debut to win narrowly over this course and distance in 22.53 seconds. 

He improved last start but ran into a good one and had to settle for second but lowered his personal best time to 22.18 seconds. 

He looks well placed in this field from a low draw. 

Ballarat: Race 11 9:52pm AEDT
No. 7 Serial Sticker

Serial Sticker led a heat of the Shepparton Cup last start only to be picked off late to finish 1.25 lengths second. 

The son of Mepunga Cruzer is low flying and had won three in a row before that including the Emerald Final at Healesville. 

He is electric at box rise and boasts an impressive record of four wins from six starts when wearing the black rug. 

I expect him to get on the arm and run time.   

Daily Greyhound Tips – Tuesday, March 25

Geelong: Race 4 (3:19pm)  
No. 2 Blame Spencer 

Blame Spencer is likely to be one of the fastest into stride as he looks to push ahead early from the inside box. The son of Shima Shine should be racing with a stack of confidence coming off a half-length win at Healesville last week, not to mention his slick 22.66 PB time over this track and distance. 

Geelong: Race 5 (3:39pm)  
No. 1 Wine Lover 

Wine Lover has drawn the paint and will likely assume his favourite spot back off the speed. He’s close to a month between runs after finishing 12 lengths off over further here last time out but is always a danger over the 400m trip with two wins and a handful of placings to his name. 

Geelong: Race 7 (4:14pm)  
No. 6 Waterloo Boy  

Waterloo Boy owns an impressive record here at Geelong that includes seven wins. He’s hard fit now with three runs under his belt this prep and is likely to settle in behind the speed from Box 6. With an empty alley next door, the extra running room should see him hard to beat. 

Geelong: Race 9 (4:49pm)  
No. 7 Special Players  

Special Players goes well from wider out, particularly from Box 7 where she’s won twice in the past. By Tommy Shelby, her recent form has been mixed, but she does hold a 22.76 second win here over the track and trip – far and away the quickest in this field.  

Daily Greyhound Tips – Sunday March 23

Albion Park: Race 4 7:23pm AEDT
No. 2 Final Rose

Final Rose returned from a lengthy spell following a fall in October in terrific fashion last start at Casino. 

The Jacob Northfield-trained bitch showed excellent speed to lead the 300m contest all the way in 16.70 seconds. 

That time was considerably quicker than what she had previously been able to produce so she looks to be back. 

She’s drawn to get the favours. 

Albion Park: Race 8 8:49pm AEDT
No. 6 Hope’s Zone

It’s hard not to love the winning machine that is Hope’s Zone.  

The Travis Elson-trained bitch has won 27 of 39 starts over this course and distance with nine placings.  

One of those victories came two starts back when leading all the way from the inside box in 18.82 seconds.   

Unfortunately, she was unusually beaten for early speed last start when finishing third here. 

She can lead any field and I expect her to get on the arm early and claim the win. 

Albion Park: Race 9 9:11pm AEDT
No. 2 Travis’s Scrub

Travis’s Scrub is having a rare start over 331m but I think it’s a good move by astute trainer Travis Elson given his bitch hasn’t had a lot of racing lately. 

The daughter of Fernando Bale last raced over this course and distance a year ago and she flew around in 18.77 seconds for the win. 

He has the early speed to lead and go all the way as he did four and five starts ago when winning over 395m here in 22.62 and 22.38 seconds. 

Albion Park: Race 10 9:28pm AEDT
No. 3 Scrub’s Rocket

Scrub’s Rocket should be able to cross and find the arm against this field. 

The Travis Elson-trained bitch was a winner here over 395m three starts ago when leading all the way in a best of the night 22.61 seconds. 

He’s won 10 of 30 over this course and distance and boasts a best time of 18.70 seconds which he set in January, so the drop back to this shorter trip will suit. 

Daily Greyhound Tips – Saturday March 22

Wentworth Park: Race 2 7:32pm AEDT
No. 3 Zipping Zodiac

Zipping Zodiac has won four of her six career starts and gives every indication that he has the makings of a talented chaser. 

The Melinda Finn-trained dog was last away over 520m at Richmond last start but railed like a demon and powered home to win in 29.73 seconds. 

He’ll appreciate returning to Wenty where he has won two from three with a personal best of 30 seconds even. 

He’s not the fastest beginner but maps to enjoy a great run. 

Wentworth Park: Race 4 8:15pm AEDT
No. 1 Ibrox Maverick

Ibrox Maverick can bounce back to form after missing the start from box 8 at Gosford last start. 

The son of Ando Mac won three races in a row at The Gardens before that including once from this box when clocking 29.44 seconds over 515m. 

He’s undefeated in two starts when wearing the red rug and maps to get a beautiful suck run behind the lead before launching in the back straight. 

Wentworth Park: Race 7 9:16pm AEDT
No. 7 Kisses For Gran

Kisses For Gran is low flying with seven wins from her past nine starts.  

The Jason Mackay-trained bitch has loved coming to town and was outstanding over this course and distance two starts ago when she won by over 10 lengths in a scintillating 29.22 seconds. 

She was just as impressive last start when once again charging to the first marker in 5.38 seconds before going on to win in 29.31 seconds. 

If she keeps stepping as fast as she has been, she can cross from box 7 and go all the way. 

Wentworth Park: Race 8 9:38pm AEDT
No. 6 She’s That Girl

The G3 New Sensation Final has drawn a crack field of young chasers including She’s That Girl. 

The Hooked On Scotch bitch has only tasted defeat once in her six-start career and has the talent to be one of the sport’s best chasers.  

She is undefeated in three starts over this course and distance, winning her first two races in 29.62 and 29.58 seconds before producing a personal best last start where she was breathtaking. 

After flying out of box 7 and getting to the first marker in 5.39 seconds, she showed great sustained speed to fend off Honk Honk and win by 2.5 lengths in 29.23 seconds. 

Daily Greyhound Tips – Friday March 21

Bendigo: Race 2 7:17pm AEDT
No. 7 Canya Ultimate

Canya Ultimate was ultra impressive when winning on debut over 435m at Sale last start. 

The daughter of Bernardo flew out of this box before dashing clear to win by 6.5 lengths in 24.37 seconds. 

She’ll be better for the experience and looks to have a class edge on this field. 

Bendigo: Race 4 7:53pm AEDT
No. 7 Summer Kobie

Summer Kobie will appreciate dropping back to a Fifth Grade after finishing fourth in a heat of the Shepparton Cup last start. 

The son of Koblenz won back-to-back races over 460m at Warragul when last in this grade. 

He possesses excellent box speed and should be able to cross and get on the arm from box 7.  

Bendigo: Race 7 9:02pm AEDT
No. 7 Nigel Devere

Nigel Devere has come back this preparation in awesome form. 

The Fernando Bale dog resumed over 390m at Sheppartion where he scorched the sand in 21.72 seconds to win by seven lengths. 

A slow start proved costly second-up in a heat of Shepparton Classic before he bounced back last start with an all the way win over 450m at Shepp.  

He can fly early and should be able to cross from the seven draw. 

Bendigo: Race 8 9:20pm AEDT
No. 1 Docherty

Docherty looks hard to hold out from the prized inside box. 

The son of Tommy Shelby won back-to-back races over 515m at Sandown in 29.62 and 29.66 seconds. 

He’ll be better for having his first look at the track last start when finishing second over 425m. 

I expect his rivals to be left in his dust shortly after lid rise.  

Daily Greyhound Tips – Thursday March 20

Albion Park: Race 1 7:19pm AEDT
No. 1 Moet Magic

Moet Magic can lead our Albion Park Greyhounds preview with a winning start in this Novice race over 520m.  

Trained by Ray Burman, this son of Aston Rupee comes into the race with impressive form, having won once and finished as the runner-up five times in his six starts.  

He was the runner-up in the G3 Vince Curry Memorial Final and clocked a personal best over this distance in his last race, finishing just half a length behind the winner in 30.01 seconds.  

Starting from box 1, he is expected to take the lead and prove hard to run down. 

Albion Park: Race 4 8:19pm AEDT
No. 7 Uno Nangar

Uno Nangar is the top contender in this race, and if she performs at her best, she should secure a victory.  

The daughter of Primo Uno was last seen winning a 520m race at Ipswich, but she will likely appreciate returning to Albion Park, where she has won eight out of twelve races at this distance.  

Her recent performances include a win from this box four starts ago in a time of 30.04 seconds, as well as her personal best of 29.80 seconds, which she achieved in November while winning a heat of the Bogie Leigh Futurity.  

Although she can be a bit slow at the start, when she jumps well, she has the speed to take the lead and maintain it throughout the race. 

Albion Park: Race 9 9:59pm AEDT
No. 2 Blue Art

Blue Art is currently in peak form, aiming for his sixth consecutive win.  

Trained by Robert Ayres, this son of Tommy Shelby has been achieving quick times over shorter distances but successfully adapted to the longer course and distance in his last race.  

He quickly gained speed to take the lead and maintained it throughout, finishing strongly with a time of 30.12 seconds.  

With the 1 box vacant, he should have a clear opportunity to start strong and looks hard to beat. 

Albion Park: Race 10 10:18pm AEDT
No. 8 Brunswick Flyer

Brunswick Flyer returns to the races for the first time since finishing a close second over 600m here in November.  

The Zambora Brockie dog has an impressive record for this course and distance, with six wins and four placings from 10 starts.  

Although he has never started from box 8 before, he has recorded decent times at this course and distance when starting from box 7.  

While he may not be the quickest out of the lids, he has a strong finishing ability and should be able to run down this field in the latter stages of the race. 

Daily Greyhound Tips – Wednesday March 19

The Meadows: Race 4 8:00pm AEDT
No. 1 Pocket Mouse

Pocket Mouse bounced back to form in a big way last start over 500m at Bendigo. 

The daughter of Feral Franky exploded out of box 5 to easily lead before extending her lead late to win by 6.5 lengths in a sizzling 27.93 seconds. 

She boasts a personal best over this course and distance of 30.17 seconds which is considerably quicker than the best times of any other dog in the race. 

She has great record from box 1 and should get on the arm early to prove hard to beat. 

The Meadows: Race 5 8:18pm AEDT
No. 2 Alborz Girl

Alborz Girl can be forgiven for last start when a touch slow out of the lids over this course and distance and finishing last. 

The Aston Rupee bitch was excellent on debut the start prior at Geelong when powering to the front and going on to win by four lengths. 

If she jumps cleanly, she can find the front from box 2 and give plenty of cheek.  

The Meadows: Race 7 8:58pm AEDT
No. 8 Just Got Paid

Just Got Paid has come back this preparation in good style and should be at peak fitness now. 

The son of Hard Style Rico defeated Desired Range over this course and distance three starts back when clocking 30.03 seconds. 

He’ll appreciate the drop back to this distance after finishing a close second over 600m here last start. 

The Meadows: Race 8 9:19pm AEDT
No. 6 Valenzuela

Valenzuela has won four of his past five starts and is looking for his fourth win in a row. 

The Fernando Bale chaser clocked a slick 29.44 seconds over 515m at Sandown four starts ago. 

Last start he broke 30 seconds over this course and distance when winning by 1.75 lengths. 

The vacant box to his outside helps and he should land in the first two heading into the first turn. 

Daily Greyhound Tips – Tuesday, March 18

Horsham: Race 3 (2:26pm)  
No. 1 Let’s Go Out  

Let’s Go Out was racing well before she bumped into trouble from out wide last week over the track and distance. She’s better suited here drawn the paint and has enough early speed to set the early tempo.  

Horsham: Race 6 (3:24pm) 
No. 1 Tammy McIvor 

Tammy McIvor can get back early in the run and make full use of the inside draw. She’s armed with blistering late speed, as we’ve seen here in the past when she recorded a sizzling 27.15 track/distance time. 

Horsham: Race 9 (4:16pm)  
No. 3 Paw Olyslagers 

Paw Olyslagers appears well placed here coming off a handy win last week at Warrnambool over a touch further. She has big claims here back over 410m and is likely to find a nice alley early in behind the early pace setters. 

Horsham: Race 11 (4:54pm)  
No. 5 Special Teams  

Special Teams was going great guns before she found trouble out wide over a tad shorter at Geelong last week. Her previous hat trick of wins were full of merit and she still has scope for improvement in just her fifth race start. From a middle box this time, I expect we’ll see her land in the top three nice and early.  

Daily Greyhound Tips – Sunday March 16

Albion Park: Race 6 8:00pm AEDT
No. 2 Rio Valour

Rio Valour should be at peak fitness now following three runs back from a long break. 

The Craig Schmidt-trained dog led all the way first-up when recording a best of the night 16.86 seconds over 288m at Ipswich before not having things go his way two starts back. 

He bounced back last start when finishing second to Super Leon over this course and distance in 19 flat.  

He has the speed to lead this field and go all the way. 

Albion Park: Race 7 8:25pm AEDT
No. 3 Super Leon

Super Leon enters this race in winning form having won over this course and distance last start in 18.82 seconds. 

The Reg Hazelgrove-trained dog loves this course and distance having won six of eight starts over it. 

He can carve out slick time early so he should be able to find the front from box 3. 

Albion Park: Race 8 8:45pm AEDT
No. 4 Hope’s Zone

It’s hard not to love the winning machine that is Hope’s Zone. 

The Travis Elson-trained bitch has won 26 of 38 starts over this course and distance with nine placings. 

One of those victories came last start when leading all the way from the inside box in 18.82 seconds.  

She can lead any field and I expect her to get on the arm early and claim the win. 

Albion Park: Race 11 9:45pm AEDT
No. 7 Who’s Idea

Who’s Idea has had just the four starts and looks a chaser on the rise. 

The daughter of Fernando Boy drops back to the 331m after finishing second over 395m here last start. 

Two starts ago she flew out of box 5 to lead all the way in a slick 18.98 seconds. 

The wider draw and lack of speed around her will allow her to gain momentum without interruption. 

Daily Greyhound Tips – Saturday March 15

Wentworth Park: Race 3 8:25pm AEDT
No. 4 Monster Mel

Monster Mel looks to have this race for her taking if she replicates her last start performance over this course and distance. 

The daughter of Feral Franky was a touch slow at box rise but mustered speed quickly to lead at the winning post the first time before dashing clear to win by 10.25 lengths in the slick time of 42.39 seconds. 

Amazingly she was first-up since August so she’ll be better for the run. 

The vacant box to her outside is a plus. 

Wentworth Park: Race 5 9:07pm AEDT
No. 4 Kisses For Gran

Kisses For Gran is low flying with six wins from her past eight starts. 

The Jason Mackay-trained bitch has loved coming to town and was outstanding over this course and distance last start. 

She flew out of the lids to lead by a few lengths going into the first turn before increasing that lead to 10.25 lengths by the end when she crossed the line in a scintillating 29.22 seconds. 

The vacant box to her inside will aid her cause. 

Wentworth Park: Race 6 9:27pm AEDT
No. 3 Laura Keeping

Laura Keeping boasts an excellent record over this course and distance having never been out of the top three in nine races including five wins. 

The daughter of Fernando Bale won the G1 National Futurity Final where she ran down Taormina to win in 29.66 seconds. 

This race sets up similarly with Taormina battling for the lead and Laura Keeping settling just behind ready to pounce in the second half of the race. 

Wentworth Park: Race 7 9:52pm AEDT
No. 7 She’s That Girl

She’s That Girl has only tasted defeat once in her five-start career and has the talent to be one of the sport’s best chasers. 

The Hooked On Scotch bitch was last seen hooning around Gosford where she easily won in a scorching 29.24 seconds. 

She is undefeated in two starts over this course and distance, winning her first two races in 29.62 and 29.58 seconds. 

One of those wins was from this box and she has the ability to cross and get on the arm.
