Greyhound Racing Tips for Thursday, August 27th 2026

First race in 4h 29m

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

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

The Meadows Racing Tips

Race 2. (19:03) Bendigo to The Meadows Final (525m)

#8 - Scott Lylah

BET NOW

Scott Lylah looks to have a bright future after posting five wins and four placings from 11 starts, including four wins from her last five starts.

The one-year-old daughter of Tommy Shelby has yet to fire in two starts at the track and distance, but she could turn that form around.

Look for her to start well and kick on gamely.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 4. (19:46) Lifestyle Deanside (600m)

#1 - Flying Royce

BET NOW

Seeking back-to-back wins is Flying Royce, who won by 3.5 lengths last time out with a tidy performance.

The one-year-old son of Aston Fastnet owns four wins and eight placings overall, and he could enjoy running at The Meadows for the first time.

The inside draw is enough to take him close.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (20:10) Hector Fawley at Stud (600m)

#2 - Fast Reply

BET NOW

Fast Reply is only a four-time winner from 50 starts, but some of his best form has come recently.

The three-year-old son of Bernardo won three back at Shepparton before adding placings at Ballarat, which is solid enough form.

He runs well at this track, and he could pay a handsome price.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (20:55) We Stand with Tasmania (525m)

#4 - Like a Rock

BET NOW

Like a Rock has a 50% win rate after posting eight wins from 16 starts, so he is worth including in greyhound picks this week.

The two-year-old son of Mepunga Blazer has yet to race at the track and distance, but his early speed is enough to put this field away.

We expect his odds to firm on race night, so take the opening odds.

Stake: 2 Units

Wentworth Park Racing Tips

Race 2. (19:13) Wenty Leagues (520m)

#4 - Pay Keeping

BET NOW

Pay Keeping looked good earlier this preparation when winning back-to-back races, and she hasn’t been too far away since.

The one-year-old daughter of Aston Rupee is a two-time winner at the track and distance, and she only needs early luck from the draw.

Her best time is quick enough to put this field away.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 3. (19:34) John McDonald Memorial (520m)

#2 - Entertainer

BET NOW

Entertainer was too strong for them last week when scoring at Wentworth Park, and he could double down on that effort.

The two-year-old son of Shima Shine owns 10 wins and eight placings from 30 starts, with six wins coming at the track and distance.

We’re happy to include him in picks against this field.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (20:19) Gbota Staff Appreciation (720m)

#1 - Stilton Shine

BET NOW

Jodie Lord lines up Stilton Shine, who scored by 3.5 lengths as a $2 chance last time out.

The two-year-old daughter of Shima Shine owns eight wins and 10 placings from 28 starts, and her form at the track and distance bodes well.

Getting the inside draw adds to her appeal, so include her in picks.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 7. (21:04) Norman Smith Memorial 1-3 Win (520m)

#4 - Zipping Hamilton

BET NOW

Zipping Hamilton isn’t always the most consistent type going around, but the son of Simply Limelight could beat this field.

He owns two wins from 14 starts, and although he’s yet to win in eight attempts at the track and distance, he could turn that form around.

Include him in picks at each-way odds.

Stake: 1 Unit
