Greyhound Racing Tips for Thursday, April 9th 2026

We have expert betting tips for the greyhound cards this Thursday at Sandown Park and Wentworth Park.

There is always great value at the Thursday greyhound meetings, and we have our best bets across the two cards.

Sandown Park Racing Tips

Race 1. (19:00) Sportsbet Supporters Having a Crack (515m)

#5 – Mepunga Rule

BET NOW

Seeking back-to-back wins is Mepunga Rule, who won by two lengths as a $4.80 chance on debut.

The two-year-old son of Barcia Bale will need to show good trap speed from a middle draw, but he should warm up nicely down the back straight.

He’s in good hands, and he should run well on Thursday night.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 4. (20:04) Happy Birthday Ethan (595m)

#2 – Zambora Bliss

BET NOW

Zambora Bliss should enjoy facing a smaller field, and we’re backing him to get back to his best.

He looked good earlier this preparation when posting three consecutive wins, including a win at Sandown Park over 515m.

Rising in distance won’t do his chances any harm, so back him with confidence.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 6. (20:49) Vicbred Series Final (515m)

#2 – Flying Ducati

BET NOW

Boasting consistent form is Flying Ducati, who owns four wins and five placings from 10 starts.

The one-year-old son of Fernando Bale has a bright future, and his best time of 29.56 should be competitive in this grade.

We expect money to come for him on race night, so take the opening odds.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 8. (21:31) Aston Rupee at Stud (515m)

#1 – Valenzuela

BET NOW

Getting the inside trap is all Valenzuela might need to put this field away, and he should be awfully tough to stop.

The two-year-old son of Fernando Bale owns 11 wins and 24 placings throughout his career, including three wins at the track and distance.

He’s the class runner of the field, so include him in greyhound racing tips.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Wentworth Park Racing Tips

Race 2. (19:40) Wentworth Park Sports Bar (520m)

#2 – Zipping Stitch

BET NOW

Zipping Stitch has made a good start to her career with four wins and two placings from seven starts.

The two-year-old daughter of Zipping Kyrgios won well at Nowra last time out, and she is good enough to bring that form to Wenty.

Look for a betting push on race night in an even race.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (20:40) Lakeside Golf Club Camden Heat 1 (520m)

#8 – Zipping Cruella

BET NOW

Getting the wide draw could be enough for Zipping Cruella to score the win, which would be her first success at the track and distance.

Coming to Wentworth Park hasn’t been ideal for her from four attempts, but it’s not a hot field, so she could take advantage.

Punters should get each-way odds on race night.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (21:03) The Sherwood Macarthur Heat 2 (520m)

#2 – Overflow Jenny

BET NOW

Overflow Jenny should be better with two runs under her belt this preparation, including a solid fourth here last time out.

The two-year-old daughter of Bernardo is a past winner at the track and distance, which helps, and getting a draw close to the rail suits.

We expect each-way odds from bookmakers.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (21:25) Wheeler Kennels Gee Saturday (520m)

#1 – Take a Break

BET NOW

Take a Break is always around the mark with seven win and nine placings from 22 starts, and she could control the race off the inside trap.

The one-year-old son of Amron Boy has had a busy first season, but he’s running well, and his best efforts come at Wentworth Park.

He’s one of our better bets on the card.

Stake: 3 Units
