Towcester Greyhound Tips – 11 June 2026
Towcester hosts a 12-race card on Thursday afternoon, with the first race at 14:36 and the final at 18:02. This Northamptonshire sand track is known for its stayers’ card, and the day’s feature races all sit at the 500m trip, perfect for testing stamina on a consistent surface.
15:51 – Grade A2 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Maggie Bombastic | 3y B | M P Brown | 353 |
| 2 | Ballymac Shelly | 1y B | A Kibble | 242 |
| 3 | Makeit Rocko | 1y D | F Gray | 536 |
| 4 | Bogger Pro | 2y D | A Welch | No form |
| 5 | Swift Quill | 3y D | N J Deas | No form |
| 6 | All About Rosie | 4y B | S Rayner | No form |
The feature race of the afternoon brings together a competitive A2 field. Maggie Bombastic has been knocking on the door at this grade, finishing third in her last two A2 outings at Towcester. Her most recent run on 28 May shows a determined effort, challenged hard into the final furlong but unable to break through. She’s consistent and trap 1 carries a 21% win strike rate at 500m here, the joint-highest figure. However, her form shows she’s better over hurdles and invitation races. Dealmaker has narrowed the gap in recent weeks, posting a respectable 3 – 1 – 2 in the last five at this track, though recent drops to A4 suggest she’s found tougher company. Neither runner boasts knockout form, but Maggie Bombastic’s recent consistency and inside-trap advantage make her the play here. NAP: Maggie Bombastic, Trap 1. The forecast market offers value given the uncertainty across the field.
16:28 – Grade A5 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Salacres Frankie | 3y B | P Harnden | 124 |
| 2 | Dealmaker | 5y D | S Rayner | 363 |
| 3 | Fabulous Image | 1y B | L Tuffin | 521 |
| 4 | Eagles Rest | 4y B | P Dolby | No form |
| 5 | Romeo Bravo | 1y D | L Tuffin | No form |
| 6 | Chelms Jacob | 4y D | P Harnden | No form |
Salacres Frankie has been in excellent recent form at A6 level, winning on 29 May and running a close second a week earlier. She’s now stepping up to A5, which represents a slight drop in class on the actual grading but a lateral move in competitive terms. Her form string reads 1 – 2 – 4 – 3 – 5, with wins coming at Towcester over this exact distance. However, her last three runs at A5 this year show mixed results, including a fifth-place finish on 21 April. Fabulous Image is younger and more explosive, having won her last A7 outing at odds of 1.50, suggesting she’s well-handicapped there. At A5, she’ll face stiffer opposition, and her form shows she’s prone to hitting trouble in running. Dealmaker rounds out the main contenders, with a 500m pedigree and a middle-ground trap draw. Salacres Frankie’s recent wins and consistent visits to Towcester’s A6 sphere make her the safest choice despite the step up. NAP: Salacres Frankie, Trap 1. Watch for forecast opportunities with Fabulous Image as the likely outsider.
17:24 – Grade A6 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Giant Killer | 4y B | M P Brown | 462 |
| 2 | Mums Jill | 2y B | D Porter | 125 |
| 3 | League Ofhis Own | 4y D | P Swadden | 331 |
| 4 | Happy Ever After | 5y B | P Dolby | No form |
| 5 | Flee From Gossip | 5y B | V Lea | No form |
| 6 | Run Kirstie Run | 3y B | A Welch | No form |
League Ofhis Own is the clear standout in this A6 contest. His form over the last two weeks is outstanding: won on 23 May at A7 by a huge 7ยพ lengths, then posted back-to-back thirds in A6 company since. He’s consistent, runs from middle traps, and shows early pace. His comments sheet reveals quick away, quick acceleration through the middle stages, and the ability to lead. Giant Killer has struggled recently, finishing fourth at this track on 4 June after a sequence of six races at Yarmouth in the lower grades, where he managed only one second place. His return to Towcester and A6 looks a step up, not down. Mums Jill won recently at A7 but in a lower 270m sprint, a completely different skillset from the 500m staying trip. League Ofhis Own’s pedigree and recent form make him the dominant force. NAP: League Ofhis Own, Trap 3. He’s running into form and the forecast markets should reflect his form curve.
18:02 – Grade A7 500m
| Trap | Dog | Age | Trainer | Last 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Confey Blaze | 4y B | D Porter | 246 |
| 2 | Great Time | 3y B | D Jeans | 243 |
| 3 | Mustang Mania | 2y B | V Lea | 562 |
| 4 | Savana Moo | 4y B | A Welch | No form |
| 5 | Salacres Madame | 2y B | P Harnden | No form |
| 6 | Blue Sensation | 4y D | P Dolby | No form |
Great Time rounds out the card with consistent form and a strong recent run. On 4 June at A6, she ran second by 5ยพ lengths, showing she’s competitive at slightly better grades. Her form string over five runs is 2 – 1 – 2 – 3 – 4, indicating reliable place finishes with one win. She’s proven at Towcester and handles the 500m well. Confey Blaze has been inconsistent, alternating between second and fourth place finishes, most recently fourth on 22 May. Mustang Mania is younger and less exposed at this grade, with recent form showing struggle: last twice in her last four and sixth by 10ยผ just days ago. Great Time’s consistency and recent A6 outing make her the standout. NAP: Great Time, Trap 2. The forecast market should offer each-way value given the mixed form in the field.
This card spans A2 through A7, with every race at 500m, ideal for punters looking to track consistent form across a stayers’ card. Trap 1 holds a notable 21% advantage at Towcester’s distance, so watch for inside-trap runners with clean breaks.
