Australia Warragul - Greyhounds 1 10:07 8

I see they are offering the jackpot as a bet.

Its in a testing phase. It was there yesterday as well. Even livestreaming link. Maybe in the near future.

Pools are dismal.

I have always been a big fan of greyhound racing.

They have established form, cheaper to keep than a racehorse, wonderful evening event under lights, smaller area than horse race track, they run on time, run in most weather conditions. Don't have jocks on their back etc.

Good Punting

I saw a clip about two weeks back from Australia. A greyhound came from the clouds to win. Will try to find the clip

They chase a mechanical hare/rabbit and after the finish they slow down and stop .......

Okay I get that much. But I'm asking. How do some dogs know by when they need to hit the front?

It’s a bit to do with training but basically you get sprinters and stayers much the same as horses

You get flying machines that fly the boxes and you get stayers that fly at the finish and you just have to place them in the right races and handicaps that suit.

Handicap is not a weight with dogs but a staggered start

Tabgold, Gold Circle, looks like are covering the Australian Greyhound meetings. The bet types are open to bet on Tabgold. The Trifecta, Quartet Exacta and Quinella is commingled. The swingers are stand alone.
