Sunday Greyhound Tips: An intriguing trio of Oxford fancies

Our resident greyhound tipster, Michael Smyth (@bettingjungle on X), is here to deliver a Sunday sermon of greyhound glory.

Below are his Sunday Greyhound Tips, where Oxford is under the microscope for three fancies.

Today's Greyhound Odds

1 pt 14:33 Oxford – Mr Funky Monk (T2) @ SP

Three selections from Oxford today on an excellent open race card. At 14:33 in the bet365 sponsors of the Hunt Cup open race, MR FUNKY MONK catches the eye from a draw in T2. The Maxine Locke-trained middle seed has recently returned to action following a layoff from early September until December.

Three recent runs over two-bends at Central Park and Romford would have blown away the cobwebs, and he should be spot on now and ready to win. The key to this race is the break and run into the corner. It's imperative that Mr Funky Monk traps well, clears Pom Pom (T1) at lid rise and beats main rival Jazzy Mia (T3) into the corner.

2 pt 14:52 Oxford – Venetian Jojo (T1) @ SP

The Kab sponsors of the 2026 Maiden Derby open race at 14:52 over the four-bend 450-metre trip at Oxford can go to well-drawn lightly raced railer VENETIAN JOJO from T1. The Kevin Hutton-trained June 2024 daughter of Ballymac Cooper caught the eye last week on debut moving rails when drawn out in T3. Today, with a plot draw to work from the youngster can ping out, lead round and make all.

During a recent course and distance trial, Jojo clocked 26.92, with further improvement likely, especially on the bunny, Jojo rates as a strong bet this afternoon. Drish Solar is a consistent performer in top grade events at Oxford. He rates as a danger from T3. Another that could go well is kennelmate to the selection Jazzy Soul from T4. He missed the break last time out but showed nice pace to get within half a length of the winner. He would be a huge danger with a level break.

1 pt 15:29 Oxford – Soapy Suds (T1) @ SP

The Category One bet365 English Puppy Oaks final at 15:29 can go to Doncaster raider SOAPY SUDS from T1. The Debbie Calvert-trained youngster has won all of her three races to date and was massively impressive in the heats of this competition last week, clocking 26.73. Today, if Soapy Suds traps well and holds her pitch into the corner it’ll take a good one to back run her over this 450-metre trip. Romford Puppy Cup winner Scooby Diamond rates as the danger from T4.

The Nathan Hunt-trained middle is a class act on the bunny as she showed when landing the Category One event at Romford back in September. Lightly raced Headford Lily (T5) is worth noting in the market. She’s won twice from off the pace and would be a runner if turning second this afternoon in the £10,000 to the winner final.
