Sheffield Greyhound Tips – Tuesday, 16 June 2026
Sheffield hosts 12 races on Tuesday afternoon, with the first race at 11:01. This Northern venue has earned its reputation as a quality stayers’ track, and today’s card reflects that competitive edge across multiple A-grades.
11:18 – Grade A3, 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Battstreet Rebel | 2y D | D Fretwell | 134 |
| 3 | Droopys Nell | 3y B | K Hodson | 551 |
| 4 | Slippy Falcon | 3y D | S C Oxley | 241 |
| 5 | Slippy Patsy | 3y D | M O’Donnell | No form |
| 6 | Chain Lightning | 2y D | E Parker | No form |
NAP: Battstreet Rebel, Trap 1.
Battstreet Rebel is the standout here on recent form. The two-year-old broke through at A3 just four days ago (6 June, won by 1.5 lengths at 3.25), showing he belongs at this grade. Before that, he ran into traffic at A3 and A5, but his win came with a clear lead from trap 3, and he backed it up with a win at A5 from trap 1 on 12 May. Trap 1 is statistically the strongest draw at Sheffield’s 500m (22% win rate over 60 days), and Battstreet Rebel has form from this trap. His recent race pattern (1-5-4-3-1, reading oldest to newest) shows he is capable of consistent placing at A3. Other runners carry baggage: Droopys Nell has dropped down multiple grades and is struggling for form, while Slippy Falcon is solid but comes off a narrow second and faces stiffer company here.
11:34 – Grade A3, 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Not Pennys Boat | 2y B | K Hodson | 253 |
| 2 | Forest Magic | 3y B | L Taylorson | 414 |
| 3 | Mucky Trump | 2y D | S C Oxley | 111 |
| 4 | Carlow Pest | 2y B | D Cross | No form |
| 5 | Clonkil Smokey | 4y D | D Fretwell | No form |
NAP: Mucky Trump, Trap 3.
Mucky Trump is in outstanding form and has a trend of winning from trap 3 or 4 at this grade. The two-year-old has won three of his last four races (11 June at A4, 4 June at A5, 29 May at A6), all with quick-away performances or early leads. His 11 June win came from trap 4 in A4 company with an early pace note, and he beat better dogs convincingly on 4 June (trap 3, by 0.75 lengths). The trend here is clear: he is a quick learner climbing grades and runs best when clear early. Forest Magic showed promise on 6 June at A4 (1.80 odds, winning by 1.5), but that was a lower grade, and she is inconsistent at A3. Not Pennys Boat is a maiden at A3 and lacks the punch Mucky Trump has demonstrated. Trap 3 suits aggressive runners on Sheffield’s sand.
11:52 – Grade A3, 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Tatti Gamble | 2y D | L Taylorson | 435 |
| 2 | No Danger | 3y D | K Hodson | 324 |
| 3 | Get Up Paddy | 4y D | J Sharp | 155 |
| 5 | Avongate Gloss | 3y B | M O’Donnell | No form |
| 6 | Nellies Charm | 2y B | K Hodson | No form |
NAP: Get Up Paddy, Trap 3.
Get Up Paddy won only two days ago (9 June, A4, by narrow margin at 4.50 odds), showing he is in winning form despite recent A3 struggles. The four-year-old has racing experience and was a length away from a win at A3 on 15 May. He came with a near-line effort in that race, showing his turn of foot. At A3 today, he faces slightly exposed rivals. Tatti Gamble has recent form but showed cramp on 21 May and looks to have breathing issues. No Danger is a consistent placer but has not won recently and lacks the momentum Get Up Paddy carries. Trap 3 is neutral at Sheffield, but Get Up Paddy’s form edge and recent confidence from his A4 success make him the pick here.
12:42 – Grade A2, 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Lightfoot Cherry | 4y B | E Parker | 113 |
| 2 | Romeo Zone | 2y D | J Andrews | 521 |
| 3 | Swift Uni | 2y B | J Sharp | 415 |
| 4 | Dingle Bottom | 2y D | L Stephenson | No form |
| 5 | Killduff Pippa | 2y B | M O’Donnell | No form |
| 6 | Ivy Hill Sancho | 3y D | M O’Donnell | No form |
NAP: Lightfoot Cherry, Trap 1.
Lightfoot Cherry is the class runner in this field and occupies the best trap statistically. The four-year-old won decisively on 9 June (by 1.5 lengths, 2.75 odds) and has a form string of 3-2-3-1-1, showing consistency at A2 and A3 level. Her last three races (newest: 1-3-2) show she is a reliable front-runner or second-turn finisher. Trap 1 at Sheffield’s 500m is the strongest draw (22% win rate), and Lightfoot Cherry has recent winning form from trap 1 (9 June and 4 June). Romeo Zone is only two years old and shows inconsistent form, dropping from OR (661m) to A2, and Swift Uni has had recent traffic trouble. The remaining runners lack form data or recent record. Lightfoot Cherry’s form, age, experience, and trap position make her the NAP of the card.
Sheffield’s afternoon card spans A2 and A3 grades across all four featured races, with no sprint or staying contests. The track is favoring trap 1 and 3 runners over the past 60 days, with trap 5 the weakest draw. Forecast markets often offer value when favourites are clear; today, Lightfoot Cherry and Mucky Trump are obvious shorter-priced runners, so look at reverse forecasts pairing them with the next-best finisher.
Check starting prices from 11:00 onwards; odds firm significantly in the final 20 minutes before each race. Betfair and Bet365 are best for greyhound liquidity on UK cards.
