With only 6 dogs to choose from, you'd think it was easy to
pick the winner of a greyhound race wouldn't you? But in
tightly graded races and BAGS races, it can be a great deal
harder than you think
So how do you give yourself a better
chance at your punting and pick more
winners?
Insider Secrets ...
Here's my quick guide of what to look out for and
what you need to be taking into consideration to
increase your profits and betting success ...

Thinking Like The Grader
When you are picking a winner from the 6 dogs - what you
are trying to do is actually beat the grader at his own game
- that means that you have to put yourself in the mindset of
the grader in order to think like the grader
It is the grader's job determine the race basically - He has to
place the dogs in their appropriate handicap based on how
good he thinks it is - and where he thinks the dog is in with
a fair chance of winning - But you and I know don't we ....
That the dogs don't always run to form - and that's why you
will find it so difficult to pick a winner.
What I mean is that you could run these races on a Monday
- and get one result - and run the exact same race on a
Wednesday - and get a totally different results - That's why
it's important that you also pay attention to a lot of other
relevant information - I've listed a great deal of that
information here in this guide to help you
Enjoy ...

Know Your Tracks
Pick Three or Four Tracks
... And stick to those tracks - Here's Why ....
If you aren't sticking to the same tracks - you will be less likely to get familiar with the dogs and
the trainers, and this is a really important thing to be able to do if you want to increase your
betting success.
When you follow certain tracks daily - you get to know the dogs well, and more importantly - the
trainers habits, you kind of start noticing certain things - and you get to know more about what is
going on.
Knowing your greyhound tracks and the greyhound trainers is vital to the improvement of your
success, let me give you an example ...
Certain trainers will try all their dogs because they own them - and the fact is that many people
don't even realise this!
Some trainers are gambling stables - and you end up with a lot of non triers - meaning that the
dog is only out for a run - and it's never been put out there to win!
So if you are just working with a few tracks on a regular basis, you will become familiar with what
is going on and you will start noticing patterns of behaviour; not just in the track itself and how it
runs, (more on that later), but in what the grader is like, what trainers operate there and their
habits - and of course, the race behaviour of the dogs!!
My Advice To You - Pick And Stick !!

Trap Draws
This is a great tip when looking for a winner- Looking at the trap draws ...
As strange as it may sound, certain trainers always try harder when the dog is
in the right trap!
Okay, so for the next logical question ... how do you know if the dog is in the
right trap ? Check out it's previous runs - I would recommend you look back
over the last 8 - 10 races once a dog becomes a regular runner - Looking
back on the form of a dog over this amount of races, you will soon see certain
patterns in their form, their trap preferences and of course, you'll start to get to
know the dog and it's race habits.
Age Of The Dog
This is another widely overlooked factor when picking a winner, the age of a
dog.
Younger dogs obviously are full of improvement - where as the older dogs are in
the graders hands! The grader as a handicapper knows them well, so the
grader will be a little less fearful when grading the dog, this means that the older
dog probably will win in it's turn when given a good chance by the grader.
You tend to find that the system plays it like this ... The grader is always more
wary with a younger dog and tends to grade on the upper side - basically trying
to make life a little harder for the younger dog and the grader will usually give it
5 or 6 runs before he really gives it a chance to run. Where as with an older dog
- the grader knows the strength of the dog and will place it accordingly.
I wouldn't have a preference for an older or younger dog- Just look at what it's
up against, it's track and race history, and whether the grader is confident with
the dog's grade.

Class And Grade
Certain trainers will win with their dog when it gets a drop in grade, so you will find
trainers will wait for a drop in grade before they take the brakes off - Sneaky? Maybe but a widely used practise in greyhound racing
Trainers are just sat waiting for a drop in grade and waiting for the right box - when you
see this happening to a dog - you will usually see this dog gambled
Times Of The Dog
When studying form always look at the times of the last 6 runs .... The last 6 runs are going to be
enough to get a good indication of where the dog is at - and how it's being raced.
If you look at the early pace and sectionals on a card, you can tell a fair bit.
The sectional is the time of a dog from the traps to the winning line on the first circuit - and when
you are reading a race you always want to be paying attention to the sectionals, this gives you a
chance to read the race on how they should perform to the first bend against the other dogs
Injury Prone Dogs
Injury prone dogs tend to run better on heavy going - How do you if it's an injury
prone dog? Read back over its last 10 runs ... You'll find that injury prone dogs /
back from lame dogs run better on a soft track because it is easier on the muscles

Know The Trainer ...
Each Trainer has their own patterns of systems and racing - and their own way of running a
stable.
You will find that each trainer's motivations are different, and there a lot of trainers these days
undercutting on fees - this means that owners are switching and moving regularly.
Training greyhounds has transformed somewhat over the last 10 years - and as money has
gotten tighter - tactics have gotten greater, you'll also tend to find that with an emergence of a
new type of trainer the old school training methods aren't always used by these trainers - and
what I would consider to be a traditional way of training a greyhound isn't even entertained!!
I am not dissing anyone here - There are, and will continue to be some great greyhound trainers
out there, but I will say is this; I visit a lot of kennels ... And there is no way I would allow a
kennel to run the way I have seen some running ... Many are wasting masses of potential, but I
guess that is what happens when an industry opens up to more people, skill levels drop.
That being said, if there is a drop in standards in a small fraction of trainers - that also gives
you an opportunity to search for those trainers who do leverage their experience and skills and
turn out some amazing runners - Greyhound racing is just about having a little bit of insider
knowledge, just enough to be dangerous!!
I have already mentioned a few tricks of the trade - I really can't mention many more secrets
without getting into trouble ... You just have to do your homework and be mindful of what you
are studying.
Watch for patterns as you will find that each trainer will usually have 2 or 3 techniques that he
repeatedly plays out on the track - And in the game, these trainers get known for the way the
work - so they attract more who want to play that way - hence, they rarely change their habits.

Bitches In Form
We all know that when a bitch is in season, it's not allowed to run, but
about 17 or 18 weeks after being in season, a bitch generally starts
to perform and is always capable of winning 2 or 3 races in a row this is usually because they are coming back into peak fitness; If you
know your dogs, you can usually tell when a bitch is ready to win, as
they'll usually show their hand a week before a win.
Weather Conditions / Track Bias
Certain tracks are just better for the dogs in certain weathers - For example, when you watch
closely, certain tracks will run better in the wet, some tracks the water lays on the inside, which
means it favours outside runners, etc - watch the tracks that you bet on and build up a pattern of
weathers and results.
Just a quick tip - In the winter months .... when tracks are salted - you will always get a track bias either to the inside or to the outside
Note Fresh Sand - Look out for fresh sand on a track, because whatever side has been freshly
sanded - the opposite side will be favoured as the better run as the fresh sand can take a while to
settle
Obvious Things To Avoid ...
When you have been betting on the greyhounds for a while, you'll will have no doubt
built up your own avoid list, but just 2 really obvious things to avoid are dogs with long
losing runs, I would say that you can safely rule these out - And bitches out of form When bitches go off the boil - they really run sour ( typical woman hey?) - And any
good trainer would take them off for a month rather than keep then running
