Monmore Greyhound Tips – Saturday, 20 June 2026
Monmore Green in Wolverhampton hosts a full 24-race card on Saturday with first race at 11:01 and the last at 21:50, featuring four feature races across grades A1 to A3 at the standard 480m trip on sand.
20:54 – Grade A1 480m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Westway Ruby | 2y B | J B Thompson | -1-13 |
| 2 | Longacres Shotta | 1y D | P Doocey | 432 |
| 3 | Tullymurry Troy | 2y D | J B Thompson | 2-14 |
| 4 | Good Maverick | 3y D | K Billingham-Hine | No form |
| 5 | Longacres Daddy | 2y D | P Doocey | No form |
| 6 | Droopys Expected | 3y D | K Billingham-Hine | No form |
This is a competitive top-grade contest. Westway Ruby (Trap 1) showed earlier in the season with a third at A1 on 1 June and a second in an OR3 on 7 May, but has since run twice with steward interference noted on both occasions (16 and 11 June). That’s a red flag for consistency.
Longacres Shotta (Trap 2) has a far stronger profile. The young dog has placed in four of five recent races, including a second at A2 on 23 May at 2.25 odds and two further seconds at OR3 level. He’s racing up in grade but the form is solid and repeatable. Tullymurry Troy (Trap 3) won at A1 on 12 May with a very quick away and mid-race rally, then took second at OR on 11 June. Trap 3 is the standout position on the card at 480m with 25% strike rate over the last week.
Runners in Traps 4, 5 and 6 (Good Maverick, Longacres Daddy, Droopys Expected) have no recent form available, making them difficult to assess.
NAP: Tullymurry Troy, Trap 3. Recent A1 winner at this track, excellent rails-to-middle profile, and Trap 3 is the statistical sweet spot at Monmore over 480m.
20:14 – Grade A2 480m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Goldstar Michael | 2y D | J B Thompson | 632 |
| 2 | Kilwest Diva | 2y B | K Billingham-Hine | 532 |
| 3 | Swift Youngster | 3y D | A Jenkins | 324 |
| 5 | Hitit Agendavy | 2y D | J B Thompson | No form |
| 6 | Longacres Ariel | 2y B | P Doocey | No form |
Swift Youngster (Trap 3) is in fine fettle. He’s recorded back-to-back seconds at A2 on 1 and 13 June, both with strong mid-race positioning and competitive odds (1.91 and 5.00). The form string reads solid across the A2 grade at Monmore, and Trap 3 again offers the bias advantage at 25%.
Goldstar Michael (Trap 1) has fluctuated wildly in recent form, dropping from a second at A1 on 28 May to a sixth at OR3 just days later. Consistency is questionable. Kilwest Diva (Trap 2) showed promise on the longer trip (630m) in May with two seconds, but her most recent 480m run on 4 June ended in fifth at OR3, and her form is trending downward.
Hitit Agendavy (Trap 5) and Longacres Ariel (Trap 6) have no available data.
NAP: Swift Youngster, Trap 3. Two straight A2 placings, middle trap advantage, solid class level.
19:14 – Grade A3 480m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pappys Jiver | 2y B | G A Griffiths | 211 |
| 2 | Zenith Quincy | 3y D | K Billingham-Hine | 341 |
| 3 | Aero Razorwind | 1y D | R Taberner | 262 |
| 4 | Tromora Force | 2y D | C Fereday | No form |
| 6 | Bang On Molly | 3y B | N Hunt | No form |
Pappys Jiver (Trap 1) is in outstanding form. She’s won two of her last three races, including victories at A3 and A4 on 23 May and 1 June respectively, both from Trap 1 with strong early pace and leads held throughout. Form reads 12341 over five runs, and she’s been consistently competitive at this grade and lower.
Aero Razorwind (Trap 3) took second at A3 on 11 June with even pace and mid-race rally, but the prior trip away to Towcester yielded a sixth and a second over 500m, suggesting mixed form at varying venues. Zenith Quincy (Trap 2) has a win at A3 on 9 May but form is erratic with recent outings at higher grades delivering underwhelming results.
Tromora Force (Trap 4) and Bang On Molly (Trap 6) are unexposed in available form data.
NAP: Pappys Jiver, Trap 1. Two wins in last three, back-to-back victories at A3 and A4, consistent early-pace profile from inside berth.
20:34 – Grade A3 480m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Patoka | 2y D | J B Thompson | 551 |
| 2 | Aero Brooke | 2y B | R Taberner | 112 |
| 3 | Sugar King | 1y D | C Fereday | 111 |
| 4 | Deal For Two | 2y B | G A Griffiths | No form |
| 6 | Zenith Hero | 2y D | K Billingham-Hine | No form |
Sugar King (Trap 3) is on a remarkable run. The young dog has won four consecutive races, stepping up grades from A9 to A7 to A6 to A4 and most recently A4 on 16 June, all victories with either lead adoption or strong early pace. The recent win clocked 9.00 odds, suggesting market surprise at upward progression, but the form is relentless. Trap 3 reinforces the edge at 25%.
Aero Brooke (Trap 2) has two recent wins at A4 and A5, showing early pace credentials, but both victories came by slender margins (1 length) and the grade is now rising. Patoka (Trap 1) won on 23 May at A3 but has since posted two fifth-place finishes at A2, a slight demotion in form.
Deal For Two (Trap 4) and Zenith Hero (Trap 6) have no recent form available.
NAP: Sugar King, Trap 3. Four straight wins with grade progression, phenomenal recent form, optimal trap draw bias at 25%.
Meeting Overview
Saturday’s card spans grades A1 to A3 with all feature races at 480m on sand. Trap 3 is the statistical standout over the last seven days at 25% strike rate, making it a key focus point across the afternoon. No staying or sprint races are featured.
Punters’ Note
Check starting prices around 20 minutes before race time at Betfair, Bet365, SkyBet or William Hill – greyhound prices tighten considerably in the final run-in. Forecast and reverse forecast markets offer good value on competitive A-grade races where form is well-established; consider pairing Sugar King and Aero Brooke in the final feature for a forecast angle.
