Sunderland Greyhound Tips – 21 June 2026
Sunderland stages a 12-race card on Sunday with first race at 11:09, anchored by four feature races over 450m on sand. This North East venue attracts loyal local support and offers consistent racing on a well-established GBGB circuit.
11:09 – Grade A4, 450m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Marwood Raven | 1y B | G Strike | 262 |
| 2 | Feis Of Fury | 1y B | Y Bell | 446 |
| 3 | Droopys Kendall | 3y B | C McNicholas | 612 |
| 4 | Bathams Panther | 2y D | C McNicholas | No form |
| 5 | Rathronan Axel | 1y B | Y Bell | No form |
| 6 | Mascot Samson | 2y D | D Blackbird | No form |
The opening A4 clash features Marwood Raven, a 1-year-old bitch from G Strike’s yard running in Trap 1. Her recent form reads 24122, showing two wins and three seconds across her last five outings at Sunderland. Most recent, she finished second at this grade on 15 June, bumped at the first but still competitive. Raven has shown resilience at the rails and middle positions, and while trap data favours Trap 4 at 27%, Trap 1 still converts at 22% over the last 21 days. Her consistency makes her the standout selection here, particularly given she’s won twice in A4 company this season and holds genuine graded experience.
NAP: Marwood Raven, Trap 1. Watch the forecast markets for value; Droopys Kendall (Trap 3) offers an interesting second if the early pace suits.
12:18 – Grade A2, 450m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Thors Hope | 2y D | M K Bulmer | 445 |
| 2 | Reneas Boy | 2y D | G Strike | 153 |
| 3 | Westforth Calvin | 2y D | G Stark | 644 |
| 4 | Marlfield Rapido | 2y D | P Miller | No form |
| 5 | Amidus Call | 2y B | P Miller | No form |
Reneas Boy (Trap 2) is the obvious choice here. The 2-year-old dog from G Strike’s kennel has won his last race on 16 June by three-quarters of a length, breaking from Trap 2 with a quick away and leading from the mid-point home. His form line this month reads 15312, with two wins in A3, and this is his first step into A2 territory. Crucially, Reneas Boy has proved he can handle racing at the same track on multiple occasions, including scoring in A3 just four days ago. Trap 2 isn’t favoured (20% on recent data), but his recent acceleration and ability to dominate at middle distances make him the class runner. Thors Hope (Trap 1) cannot be ignored with a recent A3 win, but Reneas Boy’s sharpness and timing edge him out.
NAP: Reneas Boy, Trap 2. Look for each-way value in forecast markets pairing him with Thors Hope.
12:34 – Grade A3, 450m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Helicopter Lotty | 4y B | S Linley | 321 |
| 2 | Marchon Kittymae | 2y B | P Miller | 232 |
| 3 | Mustang Titan | 2y D | Y Bell | 225 |
| 4 | Kerabellec Neill | 2y B | P Miller | No form |
| 5 | Marwood Magic | 2y B | G Strike | No form |
| 6 | Allowdale Poppy | 2y B | S Linley | No form |
Marchon Kittymae (Trap 2) represents excellent value in this A3 heat. The 2-year-old bitch from P Miller has compiled a form line of 23222 across her last five, showing four placings and consistent middle-ground running. On 12 June she finished second at this grade by a nose, taking a bump at the first but responding well. Her three most recent races all saw her finish second, suggesting she’s knocking on the door. While she occasionally gets crowded (noted as bumped at one on 12 June), her ability to settle in the middle positions and drive on is evident. Helicopter Lotty (Trap 1) won on 3 June but has since faded, and Mustang Titan (Trap 3) shows inconsistency. Kittymae’s sustained pressure and willingness to fight back make her the NAP selection.
NAP: Marchon Kittymae, Trap 2. The forecast pairing with Helicopter Lotty offers value given Lotty’s recent win form.
13:42 – Grade A3, 450m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Strike It Odette | 1y B | P Miller | 53 |
| 2 | Endearing Smile | 1y B | G Stark | 136 |
| 3 | Newmoors Amore | 1y B | M K Bulmer | 321 |
| 4 | Damn Good | 2y B | Y Bell | No form |
| 5 | Gallant Queen | 4y B | Y Bell | No form |
| 6 | Doohoma Rogue | 2y D | Y Bell | No form |
Newmoors Amore (Trap 3) is the standout performer in this puppy (under 24 months) A3 contest. Her form reads 12311, featuring two wins in the last five races, both at this track and grade. Most impressively, she won on 1 June with a slow away but solid middle-to-rails running, and again on 25 May. At just 1 year old, she’s shown maturity for her age and consistently converts at A3 level. Endearing Smile (Trap 2) returned to winning form on 14 June in A4 but is relatively unexposed at A3, and Strike It Odette (Trap 1) shows limited recent data. Amore’s brace of wins at this exact grade, combined with her proven ability to handle racing at Sunderland repeatedly, make her the clear choice. Trap 3 offers 10% strike-rate on 450m data, but her underlying form quality supersedes draw disadvantage.
NAP: Newmoors Amore, Trap 3. Forecast markets pairing her with Endearing Smile’s upside could pay out if the latter steps up confidently.
