Central Park Greyhound Tips – Saturday, 20 June 2026
Central Park in Sittingbourne, Kent hosts 13 races across the afternoon and evening on Saturday, with the opening race at 17:30. This active GBGB-licensed venue is a popular destination for Kent greyhound punters, and the card features four feature races all at the competitive OR3 grade over the standard 491m trip.
17:30 – Grade OR3, 491m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Blacklabel Power | 1y D | D Hurlock | 122 |
| 2 | Foxwood Christy | 3y D | B G Backhurst | 235 |
| 3 | Bowes Hill Bocko | 2y D | R Emery | 423 |
| 4 | Swift Youth | 1y D | D Brabon | No form |
| 5 | Glengar Dash | 1y B | R Taberner | No form |
| 6 | Sonnysloulou | 1y B | N Carter | No form |
Blacklabel Power arrives in excellent recent form, winning his last outing at Romford on 13 June from Trap 3 by 6.5 lengths. The four-year-old from trainer D Hurlock has been consistent over shorter trips at A8 level, showing early pace and mid-race strength. However, he steps up significantly into OR3 company here and will race from Trap 1. The trap bias data shows Trap 1 at just 18% win rate over 491m at Central Park, making this assignment problematic on a standard trip where the middle traps (3-4) command better percentages. Bowes Hill Bocko, from Trap 3, has stronger recent Central Park form, with a 2nd-place finish on 11 June from the same trap over 491m at A3 level. He has recorded three consecutive finishes (4th, 2nd, 3rd) at this track over the past fortnight, and Trap 3 sits at 17%, close to the 25% peak for Trap 4. Swift Youth in Trap 4 is unexposed with no recent form data available, but Trap 4 shows the strongest bias at 25% win rate over the 491m trip at Central Park.
NAP: Bowes Hill Bocko, Trap 3. His recent consistency at Central Park over 491m and proven ability in OR company makes him the most reliable selection on the card.
17:50 – Grade OR3, 491m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bumble Brie | 1y B | D Brabon | 423 |
| 2 | Sportsmans Jet | 2y D | N Carter | 3–3 |
| 3 | Emers Marnie | 2y B | P Donovan | 121 |
| 4 | Raha Wishes | 2y B | M Wiley | No form |
| 5 | Devonshire Ace | 1y D | D Brabon | No form |
| 6 | Proud Warrior | 1y D | B G Backhurst | No form |
Emers Marnie is in outstanding form, having won her last two starts at Hove from Trap 1 over 500m, with a 2nd-place finish before that. The two-year-old bitch from trainer P Donovan has registered a 11121 form string across her recent five outings, showing front-running ability and the class to win at A3 and A4 level. She races from Trap 3 here, where the 17% win rate is modest, but her proven track record at similar distances and grades is hard to ignore. Bumble Brie, from Trap 1, recorded a 2nd-place finish on 6 June over 491m at OR3 grade from Trap 2, with a recent win at A2 on 15 May. However, Trap 1 offers only 18% win probability at Central Park. Sportsmans Jet (Trap 2) is unreliable, having recorded a DNF just three months ago.
NAP: Emers Marnie, Trap 3. Her recent Hove form is elite for this grade, and despite the modest trap draw, her form edge is significant.
18:10 – Grade OR3, 491m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Clona Crystal | 1y B | R Taberner | 241 |
| 2 | Bumble Freds | 1y D | D Brabon | 233 |
| 3 | Donishall Sam | 2y D | D Lee | 533 |
| 4 | Bower Kerry | 1y D | B O’Sullivan | No form |
| 5 | Croydon Missile | 2y D | J Kingsley | No form |
| 6 | Kilbride Office | 1y D | D Mullins | No form |
Bumble Freds is the standout runner here. The one-year-old dog from trainer D Brabon has recorded a 23361 form string across five recent races at Central Park, including a win on 4 May over 491m at A2 level from Trap 2. His most recent outing (13 June) saw him finish 2nd in an OR race from Trap 1 by 4.75 lengths, suggesting he is improving towards this grade. Racing from Trap 2 on Saturday, he benefits from a 21% win rate for the trap, and his consistency at the track over the course distance is the strongest in the field. Clona Crystal has only three recent form runs and limited Central Park experience. Donishall Sam from Trap 3 has OR1 experience at Towcester but has not raced at Central Park and shows a mixed record.
NAP: Bumble Freds, Trap 2. His track record at Central Park, recent form progression, and proven ability to win at this trip and grade make him the most reliable selection.
18:30 – Grade OR3, 491m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | Rebel Comet | 2y B | R Rees | 212 |
| 3 | Ocean Summer | 1y B | R Emery | 111 |
| 4 | Lets Go Girl | 2y B | S Mavrias | -121 |
| 5 | Harlequin Lizzie | 1y B | B O’Sullivan | No form |
| 6 | Coonough May | 2y B | M P Brown | No form |
Ocean Summer is a standout pick. The one-year-old bitch from trainer R Emery has won three of her last five races at Central Park, including consecutive wins on 16 and 11 June over 491m from Trap 1. Her 11122 form string shows consistency and proven winning ability at A1, A2, and OR grade. She races from Trap 3 on Saturday, which carries 17% historical win rate, but her form edge is overwhelming. Lets Go Girl has a pedigree of OR wins from earlier in the year but has been absent for nearly four months (last race 28 February marked as In Season) and will be making her return from Trap 4, the strongest trap at 25%. Rebel Comet (Trap 2) shows A2-A3 form at Hove with recent consistency but lacks the proven OR-grade record that Ocean Summer possesses.
NAP: Ocean Summer, Trap 3. Her recent Central Park form at A1 and OR grade is unmatched in this race, and she shows every sign of continuing her winning sequence.
