Racing Post tipster Dave Clark delivers his latest greyhound betting tips for Monmore on Saturday evening, which features the final of the £10,000 Winter Derby.

Saturday's Monmore Greyhound Betting Tips and Odds

19:06 Monmore - Droopys Aladdin @ 1/1
19:56 Monmore - King Memphis @ 2/5
20:31 Monmore - Proper Heiress @ 1/1

19:06 Monmore - Droopys Aladdin @ 1/1

Precocious talent DROOPYS ALADDIN is an exciting youngster and likely contender in next month's prestigious Midlands Puppy Derby at Monmore.

Blessed with huge early speed, the July 2023 whelp was an ultra impressive winner on debut and his potent pace to the bend can again prove the difference.

Trained by former England rugby international Mike Burton, who also sends out Winter Derby finalist Droopys Suprstar later on the card, this small but immensely talented kennel are worth following in the coming weeks and the well-bred Droopys Aladdin is a top-class prospect.

19:56 Monmore - King Memphis @ 2/5

Liz McNair's British-bred star KING MEMPHIS lined up as favourite for last year's Derby final at Towcester and has been raced sparingly since, but after a series of sparkling trials is let loose by the team at Curragh Kennels in Ashford.

Rated as one of the very best in training, he has fine all-round speed and can take control of a red-hot contest over 480m aided by a slow starter on his inside.

Big-race champion Churchfield Syd, who was also a Derby finalist is a big danger in the stripes if coming away in his best fashion.

However, the classy blue jacket runner will crucially have the inside racing line on him around the first couple of turns and can put this race to bed down with his enormous back-straight pace.

20:31 Monmore - Proper Heiress @ 1/1

Unusually this year's Winter Derby final at Monmore - which is considered a 'speed track' for which you need early pace to win - features a number of strong-running types blessed with an abundance of stamina for the 480m trip.

However, the lack of early pace paves the way for PROPER HEIRESS to do the business on a terrific night of racing when the best bet on the card comes in the biggest race.

The 15-times champion trainer Mark Wallis sends out his Olympic champion, who set the standard by some way in last weekend's semi-finals and he can again prove a cut above rivals in the £10,000 decider.

He made all from an awkward draw in trap six last week, while on Saturday night he dons the black jacket of trap four and can again time the start right before unleashing his smart early speed to dominate his rivals.
