Timeform Greyhound SmartPlays: Monday 29 April

SHARPYS JANNEKE (Trap 2) never makes life easy for herself given her tendency to start slowly, epitomised by her latest second in this grade nine days ago. However, that race appealed as being a stronger race and with the return to the blue jacket a plus, we're hopeful she can tuck in behind the trail-blazers and strike fast and late in Sheffield's 14:08.

JACKS TOPGUN (Trap 4) hasn't tasted success since February, yet in truth he has faced much sterner assignments in the main. His narrow defeat in D2 Company last month reads particularly well, his 16.35 a standout in this line-up. A clear run can see him come out on top at 17:06.

Over at Nottingham, the claims of LOCNAMON MIKE (Trap 3) look fairly obvious when he lines up in the Stadium Bookmakers Stayers Trophy at 20:08. The son of Zero Ten was a facile scorer over C&D at the start of the month and has remained in good order since, adding further success to the tally over 680 metres latest. By our sectional ratings, he's highly likely to turn front rank and he ought to prove a tough nut to crack.
