Rebecca Hill
SANDOWN PARK: Race 2 (6:29pm)
No. 8 Elliott

Elliott is quickly building an enviable record and will look to make it three on the bounce.

A winner of three of his five starts, the son of Aston Rupee has proven too good in two appearances over this track and distance.

He was dominant off the inside draw at his first attempt and out of box eight last time, he couldn’t cross but was too strong late.

An improving type, he looks hard to beat.

Bet now: Sandown Park Race 2
SANDOWN PARK: Race 4 (7:13pm)
No. 8 Spencer

Spencer is another looking to make it three straight wins.

Yet to miss the frame in nine career starts, he’s certainly talented and proved too slick last start, pulling away to put up a five length margin on the line.

His past two wins have been out of the outside box, he’ll jump from there again and with good early speed, he’ll be hard to catch.

Bet now: Sandown Park Race 4
SANDOWN PARK: Race 8 (8:41pm)
No. 4 Canya All Class

Canya All Class is in red hot form having won his past three starts.

His most recent run he stepped out over the 595m here for the first time and from box six he didn’t have the easiest of runs.

Always wide, he chased hard and was too was too strong over the final part.

With plenty of determination and a strong will to win, he can continue on his winning way.

Bet now: Sandown Park Race 8
SANDOWN PARK: Race 12 (10:09pm)
No. 2 Keisha

Keisha has been racing well and gets her chance to return to the winners stall.

She won well over 435m at Sale three runs back and has been solid at her two most recent starts, filing the placings on both occasions.

Last time she just found one better on the day but cleared out from the rest.

The rise in trip will suit and she’ll be right in this.

Bet now: Sandown Park Race 12

Daily Dogs – Wednesday, September 25

Rebecca Hill
ALBION PARK: Race 2 (3:37pm)
No. 2 Miss Two Step

Miss Two Step kicked off her career in style with a dominant win over this track and trip.

Jumping away well from box seven, the daughter of Feral Franky shot straight to the front and never looked in doubt as she accelerated away from them to post a six length margin on the line.

With natural improvement, she can make it two from two.

Bet now: Albion Park Race 2
ALBION PARK: Race 6 (4:52pm)
No. 3 Snake Eyes Senna

Snake Eyes Senna is racing in top form and looks well placed to add another win to his record.

He put together back to back wins over the 431m at Ipswich before a solid last start effort here, where he was unlucky not to have won.

Striking trouble shortly after the jump, he then picked himself up to charge home late into second, beaten only a length.

He’s been placed in all three starts out of box three and with even luck, should prove hard to beat.

Bet now: Albion Park Race 6
ALBION PARK: Race 9 (5:45pm)
No. 1 Federal Blue Boy

Federal Blue Boy will Iine up for his first start around Albion Park after putting together a very tidy record in a short time.

The youngster won well on debut at Capalaba late last month and has yet to miss a place in five subsequent runs.

Over 431m at Ipswich last start, he proved too good with a commanding 8.25 length victory in slick time.

With the rails draw here, he’ll take some catching.

Bet now: Albion Park Race 9
ALBION PARK: Race 11 (6:22pm)
No. 6 Comical Bill

Comical Bill has been the runner up at his past two outings and I think he can go one better this evening.

The son of Fernando Bale was terrific here in open grade two runs back, finishing off strongly into second.

Last time off the outside box he didn’t have the best of starts but again was doing his best work late.

A very honest performer, if he finds the front early, he’ll be hard to beat.

Bet now: Albion Park Race 11

Daily Dogs – Tuesday, September 24

Ryan Cook
Warragul: Race 3 (7:25pm)  
No. 4 Make It Pop 

Difficult to go past the lightly-raced Make It Pop. 

This boy came out and won by a whopping 8.8 lengths in just his second start over the track and distance, leading all the way to rattle off a blazing time of 22.72 seconds.  

There’s some good early speed engaged in this race, but he looks likely to ping the lids early and dictate on his own terms.  

Bet now: Warragul Race 3
Warragul: Race 5 (8:13pm)  
No. 5 Paw Judas 

Paw Judas prevailed narrowly last week over a touch further when leading all the way.  

He doesn’t win out of turn, but is always a danger over 450m – particularly here at Warragul where he’s placed on a couple of occasions.  

The son of Bernado looks likely to get forward early in the run and try his luck on the speed.  

Bet now: Warragul Race 5
Warragul: Race 8 (9:21pm)  
No. 8 Field Day

Field Day is ideally suited racing out wide.  

The son of Hooked On Scotch is a two-time winner from Box 8, while his overall record of eight wins from 11 starts also stands out on paper.  

He was the beaten favourite last week over much further, but is likely to find this race more in his wheelhouse.   

Bet now: Warragul Race 8
Warragul: Race 11 (10:23pm) 
No. 4 Whipping It 

Whipping It should find this much easier after racing at Sandown over the last couple of weeks.  

The two-year-old by Zipping Garth has proven tough to beat at this venue, winning on three occasions with as many placings to his name.  

He gets right back to 400m after racing over much further last week, and from the middle box, he should be able to pile on some pressure heading into the bend.  

Bet now: Warragul Race 11

Daily Greyhound Tips: Sunday 22nd September

Craig Sheppard
Albion Park: Race 4 (6:46pm AEST)
No. 7 Mr. Morningstar

Mr. Morningstar enters this race in good form having won his past two starts over this course and distance. 

The son of Beast Unleashed registered a slick 19.09 seconds when romping in by seven lengths two starts back. 

Last start he showed good speed from box 4 to go all the way in 19.33 seconds. 

He has the early speed to cross and find the front. 

Bet now: Albion Park Race 4
Albion Park: Race 7 (7:44pm AEST)
No. 1 Wild Nuts

Wild Nuts finds a suitable race to kick off his preparation after three months off. 

The son of Barcia Bale was last seen winning over 520m here in 30.27 seconds but he’s just as adept over the shorter course. 

He encountered problems in his only previous start over this course and distance so it’s inconclusive, but he did clock 19.09 seconds in a recent trial. 

He should get on the arm from box 1. 

Bet now: Albion Park Race 7
Albion Park: Race 8 (8:04pm AEST)
No. 5 Hope’s Zone

Hope’s Zone is a winning machine having won 18 of her 29 starts over this course and distance. 

The Travis Elson-trained bitch tried hard in her heat but just couldn’t cross Let Jill Rip and had to settle for a close second. 

Two starts back she stopped the clock in 18.87 seconds when exiting this box. 

Let Jill Rip starts on her outside this time which is a plus, but on her best jump she can find the front and go all the way. 

Bet now: Albion Park Race 8
Albion Park: Race 10 (8:38pm AEST)
No. 7 On Appeal

On Appeal has started his career in fine style and will appreciate dropping in distance after weakening late in his past two 395m starts. 

The Warren Nicholls-trained dog is undefeated in two starts over this course and distance. 

Four starts back he stopped the clock in 19.06 seconds when leading all the way from box 1. 

While his better efforts have been from low draws, he has the early speed to cross this field from box 7. 

Bet now: Albion Park Race 10

Craig Sheppard
Wentworth Park: Race 2 (7:28pm AEST)
No. 8 Cindy Keeping

Cindy Keeping returns home following a successful hit and run mission to Angle Park where she recovered from a slow start to storm home and win over 530m in 30.92 seconds. 

The Charmaine Roberts-trained bitch will have gained great confidence from the win as her previous victory came in June when she won in a slick time of 29.45 seconds over this course and distance. 

While she hadn’t been winning, she had been racing consistently well in significantly harder races than this such as the Million Dollar Chase series. 

She should get a nice cart across from the outside box and if she runs to her best, she should be winning. 

Bet now: Wentworth Park Race 2
Wentworth Park: Race 5 (8:22pm AEST)
No. 4 Power And Glory

Power And Glory has an abundance of ability and is one of the most exciting chasers. 

The son of Hooked On Scotch enters this race in sparkling form having broken the Bulli track record on his way to winning the Million Dollar Chase Regional Final last start. 

He has an excellent record over this course and distance having won four of six starts and boasting a personal best of 29.28 seconds. 

The vacant box beside him allows him to build momentum quickly and break the hands of the clock.  

Bet now: Wentworth Park Race 5
Wentworth Park: Race 7 (9:04pm AEST)
No. 2 Tracker

Tracker had been plying his trade well at Maitland before coming to Wentworth Park for the first time last start. 

The Jason Mackay-trained dog won over 565m at Maitland in 31.86 seconds but it was his effort over this course and distance that was the real eye-catcher. 

Jumping from box 3, he settled outside the leader before powering around the home turn to dash clear and win in 29.79 seconds. 

He’ll be better for the experience and is drawn to get on the arm. 

Bet now: Wentworth Park Race 7
Wentworth Park: Race 9 (9:48pm AEST)
No. 6 Exploded

Exploded is racing in a purple patch of form and looks awfully hard to beat. 

The Jason Mackay-trained dog smashed the Grafton 660m record last start when having his first look at that track. 

Three starts back he made an impressive Wentworth Park debut when powering away from his rivals over this distance in a super quick 41.84 seconds. 

With vacant boxes either side of him, he should get on the arm and go all the way. 

Bet now: Wentworth Park Race 9

Daily Greyhound Tips: Friday 20th September

Craig Sheppard
The Gardens: Race 3 (7:53pm AEST)
No. 3 Just A Dazzler

Just A Dazzler has really hit his straps since stepping up to this course and distance. 

The son of Mepunga Blazer jumped from this box two starts ago and proved too strong when winning in a slick 29.63 seconds. 

He returned to this venue last start and after failing to cross from box 5, he fought bravely to finish a close second in 29.71 seconds. 

He can be a step slow at box rise but musters speed quickly and I’d expect him to be hard to beat here. 

Bet now: The Gardens Race 3
The Gardens: Race 6 (8:56pm AEST)
No. 8 Tulsi Banner

Tulsi Banner looks the testing material in this heat of the Black Top. 

The Blue Moon Rising bitch is the class runner of the field having won the Group 1 Peter Mosman Opal Final five starts ago. 

She’s looking for her third win in row after destroying the clock last start in her first look at this course and distance when winning by nearly six lengths in 29.29 seconds. 

She likes to scout wide so the outside box is to her advantage. 

Bet now: The Gardens Race 6
The Gardens: Race 9 (9:59pm AEST)
No. 7 Good Odds Cobber

Goods Odds Cobber should be winning this Black Top heat given his class edge. 

The son of Fernando Bale enters this race in flying form after winning the Dapto Megastar Final in a best of the night 29.44 seconds. 

The Free For All dog is beautifully graded against third, fourth and even fifth grade chasers. 

This is his first look at The Gardens but there’s no speed around him so he should enjoy a trouble free run. 

Bet now: The Gardens Race 9
The Gardens: Race 11 (10:41pm AEST)
No. 2 Three Gems

Three Gems is a real favourite of this column and has started her career in great style with four wins from six starts, all over this course and distance.

The daughter of Aston Rupee was electric last start when exploding out of box 6 to lead all the way in a scintillating 22.59 seconds.

A repeat of that will see her hard to beat given no other dog in the race has run that quick.

She should get on the arm early from box 2 and go all the way.

Bet now: The Gardens Race 11

Daily Greyhound Tips: Thursday 19th September

Craig Sheppard
Sandown Park: Race 4 (7:22pm AEST)
No. 4 House Of Turbo

House Of Turbo is low flying and enters this race looking for a hattrick of victories. 

The Jeff Britton-trained son of Fernando Bale stopped the clock in a sizzling 25.59 seconds last start over 460m at Geelong in a six-length best of the night romp. 

While he’s yet to win over this course and distance in six tries, he has finished runner-up on four occasions and boasts a personal best of 29.51 seconds. 

He possesses blistering early speed and could be off and gone before his rivals realise. 

Bet now: Sandown Park Race 4
Sandown Park: Race 5 (7:43pm AEST)
No. 8 Double Denim

Double Denim looks extremely well graded here dropping back in class. 

The Bernardo bitch was something to behold last start over this course and distance when jumping on the bunny from box 1 and clocking a magnificent 34.17 seconds. 

She draws the outside box here but that should allow her to muster speed early with a clear path and lead. 

A repeat of last start will see her winning this Grade 5. 

Bet now: Sandown Park Race 5
Sandown Park: Race 7 (8:28pm AEST)
No. 4 Smooth Plane

Smooth Plane was excellent four starts back when winning the Victorian National Sprint Final and followed that up with an equally impressive effort to finish a half-length second in the Group 1 National Sprint Final at Angle Park. 

Unfortunately, he was a touch unlucky two starts back but the Thomas Dailly-trained dog bounced back in a big way last start. 

He did something not many dogs are capable of and that’s break the magical 34 second barrier over this course and distance. 

There’s no denying that Canya All Class is a talent, but Smooth Plane should be ahead of him and will take a power of catching.  

Bet now: Sandown Park Race 7
Sandown Park: Race 8 (8:52pm AEST)
No.6 Tim Zoo

Tim Zoo should be close to peak fitness after returning from a long break in the Temora Million Dollar Chase series where he ultimately finished fifth in the final. 

The Jason Thompson-trained dog is a superstar and won the Group 1 Australian Cup at The Meadows in 29.71 seconds last preparation. 

He’s won two of five starts over this course and distance including a slick 29.07 seconds when winning a heat of last year’s Group 1 Melbourne Cup. 

If he can cross with minimal trouble from box 6 then he should take some stopping. 

Bet now: Sandown Park 8

The Meadows: Race 5 (8:09pm AEST)
No. 3 Shadows Of Blue

Shadows Of Blue is chasing in great form at the moment with three wins from his past six starts over this course and distance. 

The Jeff Britton-trained son of Tommy Shelby impressed last start when quickly recovering from a tardy start to settle second before powering away from his rivals on entering the straight for a 2.5 length win in a best of the night 34.60 seconds. 

He regularly runs around that time and recorded a personal best of 34.42 seconds just five starts ago. 

He has the early speed to get on the arm and go all the way.  

Bet now: The Meadows Race 5
The Meadows: Race 7 (8:52pm AEST)
No. 8 Aston Record

Bad luck had hampered Aston Record before he took luck out of the equation last start at Geelong. 

The son of Aston Rupee flew out of the lids to lead over 460m before gapping his rivals on the turn and racing away for a 6.5 length win in a scintillating 25.78 seconds. 

This is his first start over this distance but he looked super strong late last start so he should handle the rise. 

Box 8 will give him the opportunity to build his momentum and hopefully lead into the first turn. 

Bet now: The Meadows Race 7
The Meadows: Race 8 (9:17pm AEST)
No. 2 Mackinaw Peach

Mackinaw Peach returns from a G2 Townsville Cup campaign in Queensland. 

The Jeff Britton-trained bitch won her heat of the series before leading until the final 50m of the final to finish second. 

Her form prior was very good with a best of the night win at Geelong before showing excellent early speed from box 8 to dead heat over this course and distance. 

She’s well drawn in box 2. 

Bet now: The Meadows Race 8
The Meadows: Race 11 (10:25pm AEST)
No. 6 Spritely Sian

Spritely Sian enters this race in sparkling form as she looks for four wins in a row. 

Three starts back the daughter of Feral Franky registered a best of the night 25.23 seconds when winning over 450m at Warrnambool. 

She then won back-to-back races at Geelong in slick times. 

She’s undefeated in three starts from box 6 and should get on the arm early. 

Bet now: The Meadows Race 11

Daily Dogs – Tuesday, 17 September

Ryan Cook
Warragul: Race 3 (7:25pm)  
No. 3 Cool Nature  

Cool Nature was back in the winner’s circle last week at Horsham when prevailing by a couple of lengths.  

She doesn’t win out of turn this girl, but the daughter of Fernando Bale does look suited in this race having drawn an inside box with early speed to her advantage.  

In what rates a similar event, she’ll prove hard to catch if she lands on the bunny early.  

Bet now: Warragul Race 3
Warragul: Race 5 (8:05pm)  
No. 1 Best Of Colour  

Best Of Colour should be suited by the inside draw with late speed to burn.  

He was the beaten favourite last start at Sandown where he ran below market expectations.  

That said, he’s back in trip to 460m on Tuesday night and has typically done some of his best racing here at Warragul, highlighted by a 26.12 track/distance win.  

Bet now: Warragul Race 5
Warragul: Race 7 (8:45pm)  
No. 3 Daintree Damage 

Daintree Damage has gone close on a number of occasions of late.  

The two-year-old by Bernado has featured in the money in his last three starts, beaten just under a length over the track and distance last start where he was forced to get across early from out wide.  

The majority of the early speed looks to be coming from out wide on paper, so he should have an advantage having drawn closer to the paint on this occasion.  

Bet now: Warragul Race 7
Warragul: Race 9 (9:25pm)  
No. 5 Ithacan Goddess 

Ithacan Goddess can push forward soon after box rise and lead.  

The daughter of Tommy Shelby shed her maiden tag by a whopping eight-length margin at this venue three runs back, and has since gone on to run well in tougher Grade 7 contests since. 

With an empty box next door, she rates the one to beat.   

Bet now: Warragul Race 9

Daily Dogs – Sunday, September 15

Rebecca Hill
ALBION PARK: Race 1 (5:57pm)
No. 6 Perky Penny

Perky Penny was impressive on debut over this course and distance and will have taken plenty of benefit from the experience.

Starting from box two she showed good early speed but just looked to get a bit lost and stuck on well to finish a close second and put up a big gap back to the rest.

With natural improvement, she’ll be very hard to beat here.

Bet now: ALBION PARK Race 1
ALBION PARK: Race 4 (6:59pm)
No. Hara's Pepper

Hara’s Pepper resumes off a break.

A winner at her first three starts she had no luck last time here over 515m, crowded early and she was then hampered along the back.

She steps out over this shorter trip for the first time but does possess good early speed and from the inside draw, she looks a top chance.

Bet now: ALBION PARK Race 4
ALBION PARK: Race 8 (8:20pm)
No. 6 Tea Sea Gem

Tea Sea Gem will line up for her first run around Albion Park.

From seven starts, the speedy youngster has only tasted defeat on one occasion and that was in a photo finish where she was nailed right on the line.

All her runs have been over the 288m at Ipswich but her wins have been dominant.

She’s certainly talented and I think she’ll prove too slick for them here.

Bet now: ALBION PARK Race 8
RICHMOND: Race 12 (9:46pm)
No. 7 Give Me Bucks

Give Me Bucks is building a very tidy record and looks well placed to make it three straight wins.

The son of Aston Dee Bee proved far too good here two starts back with an all-the-way win, where he extended his margin to 8.25 lengths on the line.

Last time he didn’t have the easiest of runs but showed plenty of tenacity to get the job done.

With even luck, he’ll be hard to beat again.

Bet now: RICHMOND Race 12
