Doncaster Greyhound Tips – Monday 22 June 2026

Doncaster’s popular South Yorkshire venue hosts a 12-race card on Monday afternoon, with first race at 14:26 and the meeting concluding at 17:46 across a sand surface.

14:26 – Grade D2, 275m

The opening sprint offers a chance to back form in a lower-grade affair. Easy Kite has shown consistent ability on this trip, winning just three days ago at Doncaster from Trap 1 by half a length (Odds 3.75), with a second place by a nose earlier in June. The form string reads 12532, showing recent improvement with that victory. Trap 1 on a 275m sprint is not without risk given the track data, but Easy Kite’s rails-running style and proven sharpness at this track offset the wider statistical draw bias. The dog has run this grade five times in recent weeks and clearly belongs here.

Avongate Queen (Trap 4) offers an alternative, with consecutive placed efforts in D2 races and experience at this distance, but lacks the cutting edge of Easy Kite’s recent win.

NAP: Easy Kite, Trap 1.

15:03 – Grade B2, 450m

Ballinderry Luna emerges as the class act in this middle-distance contest. The dog has won twice in the last month (both at 450m, both from middle traps) and posted a 3212 form sequence with impressive winning margins of a head and three lengths. Most recently, a third-place finish from Trap 4 shows the dog is handling transition into higher grades. On a 450m trip, Trap 3 is statistically favourable at Doncaster (30% of winners over 53 days), and Luna’s mid-trap preference and recent consistency make this pick strong. The dog’s ability to lead from position two or middle and hold on suggests sharp tactical awareness.

Duggies Flyboy won from Trap 2 earlier this month but has since failed to place in three attempts, including two at B1 grade, suggesting a dip in form.

14:44 – Grade A3, 483m

Goulane Ace holds the strongest recent record at this grade and distance. The dog earned a second-place finish only five days ago from Trap 3 in A3 company, losing by just two lengths whilst leading until the home straight. Form reads 24141, showing consistency across varying trap draws and grades. At 483m and A3 level, Goulane Ace has proven more reliable than Are You Sure (whose recent form is disrupted by a stewards’ decision dismissal) and Zari Hunter (also caught out by stewards in recent weeks). Trap 3 at 450m+ typically suits this dog’s style of leading and carrying strength into the final bend.

NAP: Goulane Ace, Trap 3.

15:59 – Grade A2, 483m

Canageo stands out as the clear selection despite running from Trap 2. The 2-year-old won this exact race, grade, and distance last Monday from Trap 2 (Odds 1.53), defeating the field by a nose with a commanding front-running performance. Form reads 13145, with two wins in the last three outings and recent experience at A2 grade showing readiness for this level. Trap 2 at 483m is not the statistical favourite at Doncaster over 50 days (T3 leads at 30%), but Canageo’s proven ability to force the pace and hold pressure negates draw concerns. The dog has stepped up from D2 grades and delivered immediately at A2 level.

No Coverage (Trap 1) finished second here six days ago but from a different trap, and Duggies Donny has shown inconsistency at A2 with form reading 42454.

NAP: Canageo, Trap 2.

Meeting Overview

The card spans grades D2 through A2 and A3, with four feature races concentrated on the 483m and 450m distances. The early sprint (275m) provides a sharpness test before stepping up to the stamina-testing longer trips. All races are active and no abandonments recorded.

Punters’ Note

Starting prices firm up 15-20 minutes before each race, so monitor Betfair, Bet365, William Hill and SkyBet for live market movement. Forecast markets (predicting 1st and 2nd in exact order) offer good value on the feature races where form stands out; reverse forecasts are worth covering in tighter contests. Check for any late track or trap changes near race time, as Doncaster’s sand surface can shift bias across the card.
