Sheffield Greyhound Tips – Friday, 15 May 2026
Sheffield hosts a 12-race card on Friday evening, with the first race at 18:18. This northern venue maintains a strong reputation for quality staying races over the standard 500m trip, and tonight’s card features five feature races across grades A1 to A5.
18:58 – Grade A3, 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | No Danger | 3y D | K Hodson | 546 |
| 2 | Catunda Tyson | 1y D | S Naylor | 341 |
| 3 | Get Up Paddy | 4y D | J Sharp | 164 |
| 4 | Bathams Big Toe | 2y D | A Upton | No form |
| 6 | Ten Ton Simba | 3y D | G Rees | No form |
No Danger has shown recent form volatility but claimed a 500m win at A4 on 10 April, leading from trap 1. His recent three outings have yielded a 5-4-6 sequence with crowding and checking issues noted, which is typical of trap 1 at Sheffield where congestion into the first bend can catch front-runners. Catunda Tyson, however, offers stronger recent credentials. The one-year-old progressed through A6 and A5 grades with wins at both levels (19 April and 25 April), and last time out finished third at A4 from trap 1. Get Up Paddy brings excellent form: three wins in his last five outings, including victories from trap 3 at A6 (16 April) and A5 (7 May most recently), where he quickened clear. His 1 May form reads “1” with a 5.75-length margin, showing decisive finishing pace. NAP: Get Up Paddy, Trap 3. Trap 3 has recorded 22% win rate over 60 days at this distance, joint-best on the card, and Paddy’s recent form from this draw suggests strong comfort.
19:58 – Grade A1, 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Fleadh Thiam | 4y B | J A Spolander | 445 |
| 2 | Superb Morning | 2y D | D Fretwell | 444 |
| 3 | Carakeel Express | 2y D | D Fretwell | 316 |
| 4 | Walls Partner | 1y D | K Hodson | No form |
| 5 | Romeo On Point | 2y D | K Hodson | No form |
| 6 | Catunda Ciaran | 4y D | S Naylor | No form |
This is Sheffield’s feature race, stepping up to A1 standard. Carakeel Express is the standout candidate. The two-year-old has won two of her last three outings at A2 grade: a win on 3 May from trap 3 (leading from bend 1) and a third-place finish on 10 May from the same draw. Her form prior shows wins at A4 and A3 respectively on 18 April and 11 April, both from trap positions that enabled clear running. She shows consistent trap 3 form and progressive winning pattern through the grades. Fleadh Thiam (trap 1) has finished fourth in back-to-back A2 contests and shows no recent shine. Superb Morning is only two years old and carries recent form of 4-4-4, with a solitary win at OR level on 11 April. NAP: Carakeel Express, Trap 3. She is moving up in grade but her recent A2 form is sharp, and trap 3 offers the 22% historical strike rate at this distance.
20:18 – Grade A4, 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Rosstemple Fia | 2y B | S C Oxley | 423 |
| 2 | Miss Millionaire | 3y B | S C Oxley | 333 |
| 3 | Lowgate Jack | 2y D | J Hayton | 225 |
| 4 | Colrose Blue | 3y B | A Upton | No form |
| 5 | Catunda Echo | 3y B | D T Gomersall | No form |
Rosstemple Fia has posted consistent form at A5 level, with a recent sequence of 4-2-3 finishes and a form line showing “QAw, Ld” patterns, indicating quick starts and early leadership. She has not yet broken through at A4 but the recent form (2 May second place, just short of the line) signals she is competitive at this grade. Miss Millionaire is three years old and has alternate form between A5 and handicap races at HP, with one win from four recent outings at A4 and handicap level. Her most recent outing (9 May, A5) produced a third-place finish. Lowgate Jack is the value play here: two-year-old with a clear 500m win on 11 April from trap 3 (leading from bend 1) and a recent second place on 9 May from the same draw, earning “QAw, Ld” credits. This dog shows trap 3 affinity and has recorded wins at 280m sprint distance too, suggesting adaptability. NAP: Lowgate Jack, Trap 3. Recent back-to-back placings from trap 3 at 500m, with a win at A5 grade, indicate readiness for A4 step-up from a draw that has delivered 22% strike rate historically.
21:18 – Grade A5, 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Wholovesye | 4y D | D Fretwell | 263 |
| 2 | Dip Yer Bread | 1y D | K Hodson | 132 |
| 3 | Letter Magic | 2y B | P Webster | 632 |
| 4 | Lightfoot Dream | 3y B | A Upton | No form |
| 5 | Caremone Lady | 5y B | P Sanderson | No form |
| 6 | Easy Next One | 1y B | K Hodson | No form |
This is a modest A5 contest with limited recent form data available for several runners. Wholovesye (trap 1) brings the only consistent Sheffield form: a second place on 24 April and a second place on 7 March, both from trap 1, separated by a fell on 29 March at HP level. His form notes show “RnOn” (running on) credentials. Dip Yer Bread is one year old and shows a Waterford win on 21 March from trap 5 at A5 level, though subsequent form was run out at ON2 grade from tap 3 on 14 March and 7 March. This is unexposed at Sheffield. Letter Magic is a two-year-old with recent form from Lifford (not Sheffield) showing variable form: a sixth place on 11 April and a third place on 28 March at A4, over 480m. NAP: Wholovesye, Trap 1. His recent twin second-place finishes at Sheffield from this trap draw, despite the fall interruption, give him the strongest local form profile in a modest field.
