Greyhound Racing bettingUpdated
Greyhound racing betting with a new race every few minutes
Greyhound races are short and run almost around the clock. UK and Irish tracks cover the day, and Australian and American cards fill the Indian night, so there is nearly always a race coming up.

How does greyhound betting work?
Each race has a small field, usually six dogs in the UK and eight in Australia, each starting from a numbered trap. You can bet on a dog to win or place, pick the first two in a forecast, or bet on trap markets. Races take about 30 seconds and settle straight away.

Greyhound Racing betting tips
Trap draw matters most
Over sprint distances the start decides most races. A fast-starting dog drawn wide is often overpriced because it can cross to the rail before the first bend.
Read the sectional times
The time to the first bend tells you more than the finishing time. Compare early pace across the field before you pick a forecast.
