Monmore Greyhound Tips – Tuesday 16 June 2026

Monmore Green in Wolverhampton hosts a 12-race card on Tuesday afternoon and evening, with the first race at 14:31 and the finale at 17:57. This West Midlands venue offers a mixed programme across varied grades, with all feature races contested over the standard 480m trip on sand.

14:31 – Grade A6 480m

This opening race is a lower-grade affair and serves as a good indicator of form across the card. Anglesey Rebel catches the eye with a recent win at this very grade on 30 May, showing real momentum with two consecutive victories in A6 and A7 company before that. The 2-year-old bitch trained by N Hunt has landed the frame consistently and showed a smart finishing effort when winning by three-quarters of a length at this track. From Trap 2, Anglesey Rebel has proven track knowledge and a solid recent record. Aero Benny from Trap 3 is another option, with recent placings at A4 and A5 level, though a missed break in early June suggests some inconsistency. NAP: Anglesey Rebel, Trap 2.

16:24 – Grade A2 480m

This is the feature race of the day and a genuinely competitive A2 contest. Shannas Cove in Trap 1 arrives here in excellent form, having won his last two races at Monmore, including a narrow victory on 6 June in A3 company. The 3-year-old dog trained by R Taberner has shown the ability to lead and hold on under pressure, recorded a rails performance on the most recent outing and looks well suited to the trip. However, Trap 1 at Monmore over 480m carries only a 21% win strike rate historically. Datona Vamoose in Trap 3 offers a stronger tactical advantage: the 2-year-old bitch recorded a very recent win on 11 June in A3, and Trap 3 boasts the strongest statistical advantage at this track with a 25% strike rate. Datona has shown a tendency to race in midfield positions and landed the frame with smart late runs. The win came with a very quick away and mid-race positioning, exactly the profile suited to Trap 3’s favourable bias. NAP: Datona Vamoose, Trap 3.

17:01 – Grade A3 480m

Whisky On Fire in Trap 3 is the standout choice here. The 2-year-old bitch trained by N Hunt won with a shadow margin on 8 June at this exact grade and track, showing excellent pace and a strong closing effort. Form before that shows two further A3 placings, demonstrating clear consistency in this class. Racing from Trap 3, which holds the 25% advantage at Monmore, Whisky On Fire has already proven capable of winning from this draw and looks primed for another victory. Bizarre Barry in Trap 1 has shown mixed form, with a recent win in A4 but a fifth-place finish in his last A3 attempt, and from the inside draw faces the statistical disadvantage. NAP: Whisky On Fire, Trap 3.

17:37 – Grade A4 480m

Sugar King in Trap 3 is a young, exciting prospect at just 1 year old and has compiled an impressive record of three consecutive wins in A9, A7 and A6 grades over recent weeks. The colt trained by C Fereday landed a win on 6 June in A6 and shows the trajectory of a serious rising talent. Stepping up to A4 is a notable climb, but his recent form is so sharp and consistent that he warrants serious consideration. Swift Arson in Trap 1 offers a safer profile with a win on 2 June at this exact grade, showing rails speed and quick away capability. However, Sugar King’s explosive recent form and youth suggest the potential for a class performance. NAP: Sugar King, Trap 3.
