Greyhound Racing Tips for Thursday, May 14th 2026

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

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

Sandown Park Racing Tips

Race 1. (19:07) Sapphire Crown Heat 1 (515m)

#8 – Lightning Speed @ $2.30

BET NOW

Lightning Speed is living up to her name with three consecutive wins, and she is a runner worth following.

The two-year-old daughter of Bernardo owns eight wins and 14 placings overall, and she showed good toughness to hold them off last start.

Look for her to jump well and lead throughout.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 3. (19:49) Sapphire Crown Heat 3 (515m)

#7 – Distinction @ $1.90

BET NOW

Distinction was surprisingly run down in a tough race last start, but she should be too good for this field.

The two-year-old daughter of Bernardo owns 14 wins from 22 starts, so she’s an electric type, and she’s armed with box speed.

We’re happy to include her in our greyhound multi picks.

Stake: 3 Units

Race 5. (20:34) Sandown Cup Heat 1 (715m)

#2 – Magpie Hector @ $2.10

BET NOW

Magpie Hector didn’t get all favours last time out, but he has a good chance of bouncing back to victory.

The son of Feral Franky is a 17-time winner overall, and although his only start at the track and distance didn’t come with luck, he could turn that around.

The $2.10 odds are warranted, so include him in picks.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 8. (21:38) Harrison Dawson Heat 1 (515m)

#7 – Consigliere @ $3.30

BET NOW

Jason Thompson lines up Consigliere, who won at Sandown Park two back, and he is a classy type on his day.

The two-year-old is an 11-time winner, and he has faced some of the best in the business, so the form is on the board.

The $3.30 odds are generous enough to include in picks.

Stake: 2 Units

Angle Park Racing Tips

Race 5. (20:28) McQueens Tavern (530m)

#1 – Paw Petrov

BET NOW

Paw Petrov has 20 wins to his name, and the three-year-old is tough to bet against at this level.

The son of Feral Franky won by 5.75 lengths at the track last start, and he has yet to finish worse than third from nine attempts at the track and distance.

We expect him to settle handy and give punters a good sight.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 6. (20:52) Howard Ashton Heat 1 (530m)

#7 – Victa Krev @ $3.20

BET NOW

Money has come for Victa Krev, who opened at $3.40 before taking some betting interest throughout the week.

The two-year-old son of Fernando Bale owns 10 wins from 25 starts, so punters are backing a runner with a good strike rate.

The odds could keep firming, so take the current offering.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 7. (21:13) Howard Ashton Heat 2 (530m)

#2 – Zinfandel Emma @ $5.00

BET NOW

Bringing unbeaten form to the table is Zinfandel Emma, who has yet to taste defeat in five career starts.

The one-year-old daughter of Fernando Bale meets a harder field here, but it’s hard not to include her in picks at the odds.

She won easily last start, and her times are quick enough to be competitive.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (21:35) Howard Ashton Heat 3 (530m)

#8 – Big Diesel @ $5.00

BET NOW

Most of the money is with the favourite at $1.30, but punters get better value with Big Diesel at $5.

The two-year-old son of Bernardo is a 10-time winner from 27 starts, and he will be in clear air from the widest draw.

That could be enough to see him go close.

Stake: 1 Unit
