Dog Racing
I am going to be on Greyhounds tomorrow. I need a obv winning system.
I'm deciding between 1) One who vomits but doesn't eat it last 2) Most retarded looking. Thoughts? |

Re: Dog Racing
Check the form stats for results from post position -- every track is a little different. Check past run times against what it's going to take to win this race. If the dog(s) in the winning post(s) can run a winning time, and if they can break -- bet them. Obvously, this has to be a race length they've run before (if it's shorter, bet them if they were fading in the longer race -- if it's longer, bet them if they were gaining in the shorter race -- otherwise scratch). A good way to bet dogs is to first eliminate, then add.
I bet dogs for fun -- and the track in Phoenix has one the best restaurants in town. I'll usually pick 5 contenders, in order 1-2-3-4-5, and then bet a 3-4-5 part wheel for the tri -- 123 with 1234 with 12345 for $27. At $27 per race, it's a pretty cheap evening. Half the time it covers my food and liquor bill + some, but most of all it's just cheap entertainment that occasionally wins a couple thousand. I love betting dogs in the rain [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] |

Re: Dog Racing
Give first consideration to a dog dropping in class(grade A dropping to Grade B is the best) or look for a dog who encountered trouble in his last race but still improved his position. Good Luck.

Re: Dog Racing
I don't know what any of this [censored] means. You can bet on dogs like people bet on horses?

Re: Dog Racing
Interesting. I always thought dog racing was a fringe sport that was essentially a huge crapshoot. I'll have to find my gamblor dictionary and decipher these cryptic messages before tomorrow at 6. Thanks guys.

[/ QUOTE ] I'm not refering to their post number -- but to the winning post positions for that track. The track history will show which posts have an advantage. When the chutes open -- there is one huge cluster fu*k as all posts converge on the rabbit. The entire race is largely determined by the position the dogs are in by the time they recover from the break, and make the first turn. If you look at the past performances -- a dog whose position at first call is ahead of their post is "breaking" out of the pack. If a dog can't break -- post position doesn't offer them much. |
