Scroll down for our Friday Greyhound Tips on July 3rd, featuring Grafton Best Bets!
This looks one of the standout races on the Grafton program, with a number of runners bringing excellent recent form into a fascinating contest.
Nangar Zara has won three of her past four starts and owns a brilliant 25.25 course and distance record, while Hear The Crow boasts the quickest PB in the field at 25.06 and Blow Bayou arrives off two wins from his past three outings.
In a race packed with quality, Nangar Zara is the one for me, with her exceptional recent form making her the runner everyone else has to catch.
| 3. Nangar Zara (3) 51115T: Dennis Barnes | |||
| Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 450m. Last start finished 5th in a Grade 5 on June 28 over 520m at Q Parklands behind Appeal beaten 5 lengths (30.27). Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat. | |||
This is a quality opening race at Grafton, featuring a number of runners with both strong recent form and impressive course credentials.
So Refined has won three of her past four starts and brings a smart 25.23 PB, while Nangar Wally owns the quickest course and distance figure in the field at 25.13 and Heroic Federer has been consistently competitive against similar company.
So Refined’s recent form gives her the edge over a talented line-up and makes her the one to beat despite the presence of some genuine dangers.

| Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 450m. Last start finished 2nd on June 20 over 450m at this track behind Vermentino beaten 2.25 lengths (25.42) in a Grade 5. Has clocked an outstanding 25.23 Best Time here at the trip. Top chance. | |||
This shapes as a cracking Grafton sprint, with several runners arriving in winning form and very little separating the leading chances on exposed ability.
Whisky Addiction boasts the quickest course and distance figure in the field at 19.93 after an impressive last-start victory, while Precious Cookie has won her past two starts and Cash Sign has shown plenty of ability since returning to form.
Ultimately, Precious Cookie’s winning momentum and consistency make her the one to side with in another highly competitive affair.
| 7. Precious Cookie (7) 15211T: John Buttsworth | |||
| Won again in an impressive display after leading to make it back-to-back wins at this track over 350m (20.05). Looks well placed and should feature. | |||
This is another strong contest where a handful of in-form chasers bring genuine winning claims into the race.
Sandave Ablaze owns the fastest course and distance figure in the field at 25.01, while Goldstar Tyson has been racing consistently with two wins from his past four starts and Western Lies rarely runs a bad race at this level.
Goldstar Tyson’s blend of current form and proven Grafton speed gives him the profile of the runner most likely to prevail.
| 4. Goldstar Tyson (4) 71214T: Stephen Keep | |||
| Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 450m. Last start finished 4th on June 7 over 450m at this track behind Sandave Ablaze beaten 4 lengths (25.45) in a NG. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up. | |||
