Whanganui Straight Greyhounds Tips & Preview | Tuesday 13 January

4 Pressure’s On is running out maiden nominations after winning over 520m at Hatrick on Friday. Debut third was down the straight. 
Selections: 4-2-1-5 

3 Big Time Gunnar has put in two solid seconds in the last week & was pulling away from 4 Cloud Booming on Friday night. There wasn’t much between the pair here three weeks ago. 
Selections: 3-4-2-8 

6 Need An Uber was an impressive winner here at the last meeting & has been knocking on the door again elsewhere since. 1 Nina’s Gift has had a prior look here & returns in good form. 
Selections: 6-1-5-8 

3 Sister Shadow is a fast trapper on the downgrade. Will need a decent break to hold out 7 Grasscutter Moe who caught her late last time on this track. 
Selections: 3-7-8-4 

1 Criminal Minds is unbeaten in five here including his last win six starts back beating 5 My Mini Me & 7 Star Boy Express who might be his biggest threats again. 
Selections: 1-7-5-2 

7 Siren Sounds won a thriller here four starts back beating 3 Highbury Heights into third. Friday winners 5 That’s Contact & 2 Jilliby Eaton make this a tough assignment along with the favourite 8 Run The Gauntlet but she’s worth a gold coin at the big odds. 
Selections: 7-5-3-2 

7 Diamond Frankie is an enigmatic chaser who turned it on in this grade at Cambridge on Thursday. Enjoys his trips to the straight. Meets a good field though. 
Selections: 7-4-2-3 

3 Child Prodigy landed a plunge to win here before Christmas. Has impressed since. 4 Sprinkle Jean has placed in all three starts here & returns as a dog that looks set to race through the grades. 
Selections: 3-4-7-2 

2 Rather Convinced was a smart maiden winner on this track a handful of starts ago & finished second at the last meeting here behind a dog that is a hot favourite today. 
Selections: 2-1-5-3 

5 Abbey Road is a fast trapper who might be vulnerable in a small field but her rivals aren’t at their best at present. 
Selections: 5-2-7-6 

3 Need A Favour is a recent downgrader who ran a solid second over 520m on Friday. Third behind two hot dogs here five starts back. 
Selections: 3-6-8-4 

Poor starts elsewhere in his last two from 2 Super League but has won both his races here & stands out in this line-up. Quaddie anchor. 
Selections: 2-4-8-1 

4 Pick The Gap looked confused when fourth here four starts ago but has won three times since & returns as a smarter hound. 2 Groot’s Galaxy ran a distant second in his only try here behind a dog that has gone through to c5 since. Quaddie cover. 
Selections: 4-2-7-6 

4 Big Time Iggy has been well below par of late but she downgrades & returns to the straight where she has been at her best in the past. 
Selections: 4-1-2-3 

2 Crossfit Queen is a fast dog who is still piecing things together. The straight track should suit but she is at short odds to find out. 4 Flash Inferno & 3 Pumbaa And Timon could be worth including for a percentage in the quadrella. 
Selections: 2-4-3-8
