Timeform Greyhound SmartPlays: Look out for Leighas Dream at Nottingham

LADY OF RIVENDEL (Trap 4) - 19:34 Sunderland

We head to Sunderland for our first selection this evening and LADY OF RIVENDEL is fancied to make a bold bid to deservedly resume winning ways on the back of a largely consistent spell. Reeled in by a strong running sort latest, the balance of her form reads well in this field and she can turn handy from her middle draw and prove the stronger from the three-quarter point.

SWIFT KENDALL (Trap 5) - 19:41 Nottingham

Having resumed winning ways on the back of a timely downgrade three starts back, SWIFT KENDALL has had little go right on each of her last two starts, not seen to best effect having been crowded at a crucial stage eight days ago. Boasting a 50% strike rate when operating in this class of A6, tonight's contest lacks a great deal of depth and the daughter of Broadstand Bono can pass this test with a clear run.

LEIGHAS DREAM (Trap 5) - 20:12 Nottingham

Top-grade action now at Nottingham and LEIGHAS DREAM is fancied to resume winning ways back on home soil following an unsuccessful stint on her travels. Best not judged too harshly on her latest exploits allowing for trouble in running, the daughter of Droopys Sydney has built an impressive strike rate at Colwick Park, including in A1 company, and she can capitalise on the return to calmer waters.
