Check out our Daily Greyhound Tips for Monday August 3rd below, featuring Grafton best bets!
This shapes as a competitive sprint where several runners are looking to recapture their best form, while a couple arrive with genuine upside.
Epifanio owns the quickest course and distance benchmark in the field and looks capable of improving on recent efforts, Iron River comes off a confidence-boosting victory, and Aussie Storm has been racing consistently enough to figure prominently.
Epifanio gets the vote to bounce back in a race that doesn’t have a clear standout.
| 5. Epifanio (5) 82755T: Melissa Arandale | |||
| Has finished fifth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 7 lengths behind Zippy Tippy over 450m. Needs to find a bit more. | |||
This is an open sprint with virtually the entire field searching for improved form, making proven ability a key factor.
Bugatti Minx owns the quickest course and distance benchmark in the field, while Great Marlow and Bokarm Quinn have both shown enough at Grafton to suggest they can be competitive if they return to their best.
Bugatti Minx looks the runner most capable of breaking through in an open affair.
| 4. Bugatti Minx (4) 6×466T: Mark Knowles | |||
| Missed the frame latest (20.89) when sixth over 350m at this track in a Grade 5. Has never missed the frame from three starts from the draw, including a win. Looks a key chance on best form. | |||
This looks one of the better races on the card, with several runners bringing genuine winning form and excellent Grafton credentials.
Fix It Fred has won his past two starts in impressive fashion, Milo Davis has been ultra-consistent throughout his recent campaign, and Robell Clyde is capable of bouncing back with the quickest course and distance figure in the field.
Fix It Fred appeals as the horse to beat, but this promises to be a fascinating contest.
| 2. Fix It Fred (2) 12511T: Sonia Kempshall | |||
| Won his last two including a good win last start over 350m at this track by one length in a NG. Form strong and a huge chance to register the hat-trick. | |||
This is another even sprint where several runners have claims, although a couple stand out on exposed Grafton form.
Full Twist has been racing consistently without missing a beat, Nugget Roberts rarely runs a poor race at this level, and Local Legend has the quickest course and distance figure despite recent setbacks.
Full Twist looks the safest option and can convert his consistent form into another victory.
| 1. Full Twist (1) 61323T: Denise Hall | |||
| In the money last time at this track (20.14) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 4 length third. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed five times. Looks a leading chance. | |||
