Monmore Greyhound Tips – Monday, 11 May 2026

Monmore Green in Wolverhampton hosts a 12-race card on Monday afternoon, with the first race at 14:23 and the final race at 17:49 on the sand surface. This West Midlands venue offers a varied programme with solid evening betting interest.

16:34 – Grade A7, 480m

An A7 contest at 480m on Monmore’s sand surface presents a competitive mid-card race with a relatively open field. Recent trap data shows a strong bias toward Trap 3, which has recorded a 25% strike rate over the past seven days on this distance, significantly outperforming other traps. Trap 5 also shows promising form at 24%, whilst Traps 2, 4 and 6 cluster at 13% each. Trap 1, despite its inside position, has managed 21% and warrants consideration as a secondary angle.

The runner list for this race includes dogs from respected trainers: J B Thompson (Denton Girl in Trap 1 and Vixons Opaque in Trap 2), C Jones (Black Scorpion, Trap 3), N Hunt (Amka Raven, Trap 4), R Taberner (Aero Dignity, Trap 5) and G A Griffiths (Aurora Sky, Trap 6). Unfortunately, recent form data is not available for any of these runners, meaning this is a race where trap position and trainer reputation become key selection tools.

Given the pronounced trap bias favouring Trap 3 at 480m on this surface, Black Scorpion from the stable of C Jones presents value. Trap 3’s 25% win rate is a clear standout, and Black Scorpion, at three years old, should be settled enough to capitalise on the positional advantage. The dog’s age and trainer record suggest experience and consistency. NAP: Black Scorpion, Trap 3.

This is an A7 race where forecast and reverse forecast markets could offer value given the wide trap spread and limited recent form data. Early price checking will be essential as the card progresses.

Meeting Overview

Monmore’s full 12-race card spans the afternoon and early evening, offering a balanced mix of grades typical for this West Midlands venue. The A7 feature at 16:34 sits centrally on the card and should attract solid betting support. Punters should expect a steady flow of racing with the sand surface consistent across all distances.

Punters’ Note

For greyhound racing at Monmore, SP (Starting Price) is finalised close to race time, so check major bookmakers like Betfair, Bet365, SkyBet and William Hill in the final 10-15 minutes before your race. Forecast and reverse forecast markets are popular in six-dog fields and often offer genuine value when recent form is limited. With no form data available for Monday’s feature, trap draw becomes the dominant selection factor, making the biased traps especially attractive.
