Best of the Day:

Greyhound: #3 Plum Tuckered
Odds: $2.40
Race: Townsville, Race 8 [10:12pm AEST]
Trainer: Danny Preh
Form: 311231

Why it's our pick: Plum Tuckered caught my eye with her stellar performance right here in Townsville. Last time she raced on this track, she blew the competition away with a commanding 5.5 lengths victory in a Grade 3/4 race. She didn't just win; she sprinted her heart out and clocked a fantastic time of 21.76 for the 380m dash!

So, given her current form and evident prowess on this track, I'm confident in placing her as my top-rated pick for today's racing. I'm eagerly anticipating another captivating run from this on-fire lady!

Roughie of the Day:

Greyhound: #2 Winter Skye
Odds: $16.00 | $2.90
Race: Townsville, Race 12 [11:32pm AEST]
Trainer: Glen Olsen
Form: 682584

Why it's our pick: Winter Skye is one of those underdogs that you just can't overlook in my view! When she last graced Townsville's track, she faced some stiff competition in a Grade 5 race, finishing a respectable 4th. Though she was 4.5 lengths behind Where's The Ship, it's essential to note that she came from an incredibly competitive race with hot form runners. Clocking a time of 22.28 over the 380m gives me the inkling that she has more to offer, especially at the enticing odds of $16.00/$2.90.

So, with that in mind, I'm backing her as my 'roughie of the day' because, sometimes, it's those unexpected contenders that surprise us most. Keep an eye on Winter Skye; she could just be the dark horse worth betting on tonight!

Multi of the Day:

13:26 - Launceston, Race 1: #8 Ruby And Rice WIN @ $1.60
13:39 - Murray Bridge, Race 6: #1 By The Dram PLACE @ $1.35
20:20 - Townsville, Race 3: #5 Federal Remark PLACE @ $1.55

Combined Odds: $3.35

Why it's our pick: Kicking off with Ruby And Rice at Launceston, she's been on my radar due to her impressive form lately, racking up three consecutive wins. Her last outing saw her triumph comfortably by 3.5 lengths at Hobart, clocking in at 26.11 and leaving Interrogation trailing in her wake. So, given her current hot streak and consistent performances, I'm convinced she's primed for another victory. With her momentum, she's shaping up to be a force to be reckoned with, and the one to beat today!

Moving on to By The Dram at Murray Bridge, his last performance was nothing short of impressive. Notching up a win with a half-length lead in a special conditions race and clocking a significant 16.54 over the 300m, he in top form. Plus, his history indicates a preference for the inside tracks, and considering his most recent win was from the middle, I'm feeling rather confident about his chances, especially from an inside position!

Lastly, Federal Remark at Townsville caught my eye with a promising score of 22.11 during his last outing. And, as he prepares to break from box 5 for the first time, I think he presents himself as a prime contender in the lineup!

So, in bundling these choices together, we are at combined odds of $3.35, which I think provides a fantastic opportunity for a PLACE multi. Let's see if they can live up to the expectations!

Bonus Pick for the Day:

Greyhound: #7 Got Attitude
Odds: $2.05
Race: Warragul, Race 7 [5:27pm AEST]
Trainer: Jason Thompson
Form: 23731

Why it's our pick: From the moment I laid eyes on Got Attitude's recent performances at Warragul, I was taken aback by his prowess on the track. His last outing was particularly striking; he took a prominent lead early on and maintained that momentum, securing a commendable win over the 400m stretch in an impressive 22.27, outpacing contenders like Downstream.

Also, I will note that scorching 22.27 time isn't just a fluke, but rather, I believe it's an embodiment of his potential and capacity on this trip. And with that in mind, today I believe Got Attitude is set to showcase once again why he's deserving of such high praise!

Bonus Multi for the Day:

17:23 - Buli, Race 9: #1 Talented Lady PLACE @ $1.26
21:35 - Gosford, Race 8: #5 Ziggy Girl PLACE$2.25
21:45
- Grafton, Race 9: #5 Vigne Unleashed WIN$1.55

Combined Odds: $4.39

Why it's our pick: Starting with Talented Lady at Buli. Even though her last outing might not have been her best, she's known to shine at this course and distance. With her rapid pace, if she jumps well, there's a good chance she'll secure not just a place, but even the win! The inside box is a benefit for her, and while she was strongly backed last time, I feel she deserves another shot, especially for a place finish.

Moving on to Ziggy Girl at Gosford. While she's still getting acquainted with the Gosford 515m, her recent form suggests she's geared up for this one. A powerful performance at Bulli a couple of runs ago and her last outing where she clocked one of the evening's fastest times, even if she didn't clinch the top spot, indicates she's in the mix. She's one to look out for, and I'm backing her to place.

Lastly, our lad Vigne Unleashed at Grafton is the one I'm backing to take the win. Coming off a remarkable streak, including a dazzling 19.76 time two starts back, he's shown he's in top form. The subsequent race had stronger competitors, yet he held his ground. Although the draw might be a bit tricky, with a clean break, I anticipate he'll be leading the charge, making him my pick for the win.

So, together, these three make a solid combination for my bonus multi for the day, with enticing odds of $4.39. It's shaping up to be a thrilling race day, and fingers crossed this beauty gets up!

The Winning Formula – Picking Your Greyhound:

Ready to get the inside track on greyhound betting? Let's dig into the key factors and strategies that can turn a guess into an educated bet. Welcome to the art of picking a winning greyhound!

  • Form: When you're sizing up a Greyhound, one of the first things you should look at is its form. Has the dog been tearing up the track recently, or has it been more of a tail-ender? Recent form can give you a solid indication of a Greyhound's current capabilities.
  • Class: Class refers to the level at which a Greyhound has been competing. A jump in class can mean stiffer competition, while a drop can provide a confidence boost to our four-legged friend.
  • Speed: In Greyhound racing, speed can make all the difference. Pay attention to a dog's sectional times and overall race times to gauge its speed. The fastest dogs are usually the ones crossing the finish line first!
  • Track Bias: Every track has its quirks. Some dogs might perform better on certain tracks due to their running style, track conditions, or weather on race day. So, keep an eye on the track!
  • Race History: How has the dog performed in past races? Has it consistently been a strong contender, or does it have a mixed bag of results? A dog's race history can provide insights into its potential future performance.
  • Betting Odds: The odds reflect the public's opinion of a Greyhound's chances. Lower odds indicate a favourite, while higher odds suggest an underdog. However, don't just follow the crowd - look for value bets where you believe a dog has a better chance than the odds imply!
  • Finding the Value Bets: It's all about comparing your assessment of a Greyhound's chances to the odds on offer. If you believe the odds are higher than they should be based on your evaluation, you've potentially found a value bet.

To bring this all together, let's take a gander at an example. Say we have a Greyhound named 'Thunder Bolt', with a recent form of 1123, showing consistency. He's dropping in class, his sectional times are among the fastest, and he's previously performed well at the upcoming track. His race history is impressive, and the odds on offer for a win are generous. Here, based on our strategy, 'Thunder Bolt' appears to be a strong pick, and a possible value bet.

And always remember, there are no guarantees in betting, but understanding these factors can significantly boost your chances. Happy punting, mate!
