14:36 Newcastle Greyhound Racing Prediction

The 14:36 race at Newcastle on Friday 5th December 2025 sees six dogs race in this A3 race on a 480m track. In this article, we take a look at the course location, the greyhounds competing and make our 14:36 Newcastle Greyhound prediction.

Formerly known as Brough Park, Newcastle Stadium is situated a couple of miles outside of the centre or Newcastle, on The Fossway, Byker. In previous years the 415m circumference track was used for motorcycle racing, but it is now exclusively a greyhound racing stadium which hosts meetings five days a week, Tuesday – Saturday. Admission is free on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Newcastle Stadium hosts a number of competitions including the Northern Flat, All England Cup and Northern Puppy Derby.

Who are the 14:36 Newcastle greyhounds to watch out for?

There are six greyhounds racing in the 14:36 race at Newcastle on Friday 5th December 2025. Let’s take a look at each of them.

Rhoden Nelson

• Runs: 71
• Wins: 16
• Win %: 23%

Racing from trap one is Rhoden Nelson, an experienced dog who has been racing at Newcastle for almost two full years. Equally experienced is trainer S Roberts, who has a 17% win rate at Newcastle from over 700 races. Having finished first in two of their last three races, Rhoden Nelson is definitely one to watch for our 14:36 Newcastle Greyhound prediction.

Solway Splash

• Runs: 26
• Wins: 6
• Win %: 23%

While less experienced than Rhoden Nelson as they only started racing in May 2025, Solway Splash’s win rate is equally as impressive. However, while they have been no stranger to each-way finishes at Newcastle this year, their last three races have been markedly disappointing as they have crossed the line in 5th or 6th place, something trainer D Little will no doubt be hoping to rectify. This is important to consider when making our 14:36 Newcastle Greyhound prediction.

Whitehills Vito

• Runs: 3
• Wins: 1
• Win %: 33%

Whitehills Vito may have an impressive percentage win rate, but on closer inspection, they are a new dog to racing and have only won one race – their first – at Newcastle, and finished in fourth and sixth place in their last two races. With this in mind, they might not be the best bet in this race.

Fabulous Request

• Runs: 36
• Wins: 5
• Win %: 14%

Two-year-old Fabulous Request has a win rate of 14% and while they did have some success earlier in the year, their performance in the last quarter has been pretty poor, with nothing above a second place finish.

Fruity Beauty

• Runs: 15
• Wins: 2
• Win %: 13%

Fruity Beauty is a two-year-old dog from trainer D Blackbird. They have had mixed experiences running at Newcastle, Pelaw Grange and Sunderland, with a 13% win rate.

Polly’s Purler

• Runs: 29
• Wins: 6
• Win %: 21%

Polly’s Purler has a 21% win rate at Newcastle over 480m. In fact, their last two races there have earned them a first and second place finish. This makes them one to watch for our  14:36 Newcastle Greyhound prediction.

Prediction for the 14:36 at Newcastle on Friday 5th December 2025

When considering the statistics, Rhoden Nelson and Solway Splash look like good contenders to win the 14:36 race at Newcastle on Friday 5th December. Whitehills Vito may have the best win percentage and shows great promise, but their form is not yet certain and so a bet on them could be risky. Polly’s Purler has enjoyed recent success at Newcastle so they could cause an upset, but their win rate is not as high as our two favourites. Betfair are offering odds of 10/3 on Rhoden Nelson and 6/1 on Solway Splash. As Solway Splash has the longer odds of the two, we would be inclined to play it safe with our 14:36 Newcastle Greyhound prediction and put our money on Rhoden Nelson.
