The weekend’s greyhound racing calendar provided plenty of excitement for fans and punters alike, with stakes across tonight’s contests at Central Park, Doncaster, Newcastle, and Yarmouth delivering high-quality performances and unexpected results.
The standout story emerged at Central Park in Kent on Saturday, 15th November, where Hove-based trainer Seamus Cahill produced a masterclass, landing an impressive treble that kept greyhound betting enthusiasts on their toes.
Cahill’s Central Park treble
Cahill’s weekend dominance began with Moving Force, who showcased exceptional speed and tactical awareness over 491m, posting the fastest time of the night. The greyhound broke quickly from the traps and maintained a commanding lead, leaving rivals trailing in his wake.
Not content with a single triumph, Cahill followed up immediately in the next race when Yougo Charlie defied his 10/1 odds. Using his blistering early pace, Yougo Charlie surged into the lead and held off all challengers in a thrilling finish.
Cahill’s hat trick was completed in the final race of the evening with Droopys Invent, who capitalised on the open space created by vacant traps on either side to secure a clinical victory, much to the delight of the home crowd.
King Presley continues dominant sprint run
Another headline act at Central Park was King Presley, trained by Liz McNair, who continued his exceptional sprint form over 277m. The greyhound, a favourite among greyhound betting fans, added another win to an outstanding 2025 campaign, bringing his tally to nine wins from his last ten races at his home track and 21 wins overall, the highest of any open race greyhound in the country this year. His consistency over sprint distances remains a benchmark for competitors.
Multiple trainers celebrate Central Park wins
Beyond Cahill’s treble, several trainers enjoyed successful weekends across the Central Park card. Julie Luckhurst landed a double over six bends, with Bullseye Bill producing the quicker time, and Snowdon Champ impressing in just his second start in a staying race following a September debut victory over 664m.
Dan Brabon also recorded a brace of wins, with Millbank Pizazz posting the evening’s fastest 664m time, while Blastoff Kobbie claimed a Category Three final.
Other notable winners included Raymonds Charlie for Nick Carter, Danas Star for Dave Puddy, and Mickys Tribute for Ricky Holloway over four bends.
Standout performances at Doncaster
Meanwhile, at Doncaster, Daring Moaner continued her exceptional form under trainer David Fradgeley, recording her fifth win from the last six races over 661m. The St Leger finalist now holds six of the twelve fastest times of the year at the track over the distance, underlining her consistency and quality.
Phil Milner also enjoyed a double with Keefill Goose, securing his first win since August, and Keefill Rocky, who has now claimed victory in five of his eight starts following a five-month injury hiatus, while maintaining the quickest 450m time of the year at Doncaster.
Highlights from Newcastle and Yarmouth
Newcastle also delivered a highlight on Saturday, as Oakfront Royale, trained by D Winder, triumphed in the Arena Racing Company Stakes over 480m at 11/4.
The win reinforced the consistency of high-level performances across UK greyhound tracks during the weekend.
Meanwhile, at Yarmouth, Thymelea Sailor, trained by Scott Manthorpe, produced an upset victory at 9/1 over the odds-on favourite Travel Safe in a single open race on Saturday afternoon. Notably, this was only the greyhound’s second race since July 2024, demonstrating the patience and planning of her connections.
