When Do We Post Our Greyhound Tips?

We publish our betting tips for greyhounds the day before a race. This leaves more than enough time for you to review our selections and find suitable betting odds.

Our expert tipsters do their very best to ensure all information on runners is accurate. We analyse the form of every dog as well as the overall strength of competitors across the traps. Other key aspects our analysts look at are overnight declarations, track conditions, and the weather.

The aim of the game is to provide the most accurate greyhound betting tips for each race and meeting. This is achievable by allowing our dog racing experts the time and space to do their best work.

As always, you can find a wide range of predictions and the best bets for races covering the length and breadth of Britain and Ireland. From major races to smaller events, we provide expert tips for as many events as possible.

Types of Free Greyhound Tips We Offer

We provide a wide range of betting options for greyhound racing fans. Our predictions cover several bet types – some of which are not too dissimilar to the horse racing tips on our site.

This should provide a fuller understanding of some of the most popular tips we post.

Greyhound Naps

Naps are essentially our strongest daily selections and the bets our tipsters are most confident about. We carefully choose top dog racing tips against set criteria, which starts with the gulf in class between a favourite and its competitors. Ante post betting Naps may also be selected – that is, if they are the best value option among our best greyhound racing bets for that day.

Winner Greyhound Betting Tips

Also known as straight win bets, these are the first greyhound betting option most punters look at on a race card. We factor all kinds of data and research into our winner selections, focusing on dogs that look primed to finish 1^st. Our experts look for superior recent form, favourable trap draws, and suitable track conditions for a dog’s particular running style.

Each Way and Place Tips for Greyhounds

Successful each-way greyhound selections pay out for both wins and places for first-placed dogs. This is because there are two bets in one with each-way wagers, meaning you pay double the stake of a straight. If you win just the place part, you are paid a fraction of the winner’s odds in six dog competitive handicap races, open/graded races, etc.

Greyhound Forecast & Reverse Forecast Tips

A successful forecast greyhound tip involves predicting the first two finishers in the correct order (5, 6). Reverse forecasts cover both possible finishing combinations, however, such as 5 + 6 and 6 +5. Forecasts/reverse forecasts can pay out significantly, but you will need to double your stake for the latter.

Tricast Greyhound Tips

Even the most skilled greyhound punters who understand trap dynamics and race pace will struggle to win these often. Tricast bets involve picking the first three finishers in exact order (1, 3, 2). You can also find reverse trifecta greyhound racing tips (similar to reverse forecast but for tricasts) that can pay out handsomely if they win.

Greyhound Accumulator Tips

A greyhound accumulator involves multiple selections (4+) across different races. These are popular in the sport for the potentially massive returns they offer. You may find greyhound betting tips for accumulators that mix up short-priced favourites with solid value selections.

Combination Bet Tips for Greyhounds

You can also bet on a wide range of combination bets, including the following and more.

• Trixie – Four bets across three selections comprised of three doubles and one treble.
• Patent – Seven bets from three selections, including three singles, three doubles, and one treble.
• Yankee – Eleven bets on four selections, with six doubles, four trebles, and one fourfold.
• Super Yankee/Canadian – 26 bets on five selections, including ten doubles, ten trebles, five fourfolds, and one fivefold.
• Lucky 31 – Comprised of 31 bets on five selections, with five singles, ten doubles, ten trebles, five fourfolds, and one fivefold.
• Lucky 63 – Made up of 63 bets on six selections with six singles, 15 doubles, 20 trebles, 15 fourfolds, six fivefolds, and one sixfold.
• Heinz – 57 bets from six selections including 15 doubles, 20 trebles, 15 fourfolds, six fivefolds and one sixfold.

There are even more combination wagers you can place on the dogs with our tips.

• Inside vs Middle vs Outside – Wager on the inside (1 or 2), middle (3 or 4), or outside (5 or 6) to win.
• Inside vs Out – Bet on dogs from Trap 1, 2, 3 vs 4, 5, 6, or vice versa.
• Odds vs Evens – You can wager on any odd-numbered dog (1, 3, 5) to beat any with an even number (2, 4, 6)
• Greyhounds Match Betting – Our tips for greyhounds also cover these markets, whereby you bet on one dog to do better than another.

Greyhound Racing Tips by Meetings and Festivals

Top greyhound tipsters cover major races and meetings across the UK and Irish greyhound racing calendar. These races take place at various prestigious tracks from January to December.

We provide comprehensive tips for greyhound bets across all major venues, which include these tracks and stadiums.

Brighton & Hove Greyhound Tips

This premier seaside track opened first in 1928, with a crowd of 7,000 attending on the day. The winner of the first meeting was Graham-Hooper’s “Costs”, and many dogs have followed in his path since then. Known for its tight bends that reward early pace, Brighton & Hove hosts five meetings a week and is home to the Winter Derby.

Romford Greyhound Tips

We also enjoy providing greyhound betting tips for Romford, which is among Britain’s most popular tracks. Opened in 1937 in Havering, the track hosted Cheetahs racing greyhounds for a night in 1937. These days, it’s better known for long straights that suit strong-finishing runners you’ll find among our Romford dogs betting tips.

Monmore Greyhound Tips

Situated in Monmore Green, this venue in Wolverhampton has some pretty unique characteristics for racing. Opened in 1928, we like how the track’s sharp bends and short straights create exciting races. Our experts use their specialist knowledge to approach predictions for Monmore with a profitable betting mindset.

Nottingham Greyhound Tips

We also offer Greyhound predictions tips for another Midlands venue, albeit in the East Midlands. First opened in 1980 in Colwick Park, the track’s configuration rewards early speed and more aggressive running. This tends to favour animals with good sprint distances on the sand.

Towcester Greyhound Tips

Opened in 1973 in Northampton as a horse racing track, Towcester is among Britain’s premier greyhound venues. The track is home to the English Derby, which is suitable given the demanding layout of bends. This arena poses serious tests of stamina and class, separating performers from underperformers in big-race situations.

Dundalk Greyhound Racing Tips

Dundalk Stadium is located in County Louth, Ireland. Opened in 2003 and also home to an all-weather horse racing course, it is considered the premier greyhound racing track in the country. We provide Dundalk International and Irish Sprint Cup tips among our bet ideas for the venue.

Perry Barr Tips

Opened in 1929 on Aldridge Road, Birmingham, Perry Barr is nothing short of a historic greyhound stadium. Also used as a motorcycle speedway track, it is often confused with the “Old Perry Barr Stadium” that closed in 1984. As with many elite tracks, expect tight turns and short straights that test early pace and poise in close contests.

Sunderland Tips

Located in Fulwell in the North East, Sunderland Greyhound Stadium first opened in 1940. It is the home of the Arena Racing Company Grand Prix and several other races throughout the year. The track’s configuration suits handy dogs and puppies capable of navigating tight quarters and finishing strong.

Shelbourne Greyhound Tips

Shelbourne Park (not to be confused with Shelbourne football club’s home stadium of Tolka Park) is Ireland’s most famous dog track. Opened in 1924 in Ringsend, Dublin, it underwent major renovations in 2024. Home of the greyhound Irish Derby and the Easter Cup, it is a huge part of the city’s racing heritage.

Newcastle Tips

Newcastle Stadium, previously known a Brough Park, was opened in the North East in 1928. A former motor speedway track, it was enhanced and upgraded following renovations in 1928. We provide various tips for Newcastle dogs throughout the year.

Yarmouth Tips

We like this popular Norfolk seaside track, which opened its doors in Caister-on-Sea in 1940. Home of the East Anglian Derby, it attracts tens of thousands of spectators every year. We like providing greyhound betting advice for Yarmouth, given the venue’s unique charm and testing environment for dogs with proven racing ability.

Best Greyhound Races to Bet On in the UK and Ireland

There are major meetings and greyhound festivals held across the UK and Ireland. Here are some of the most prestigious contests there are greyhound odds and markets on:

International Greyhound Races

You may also find some greyhounds betting tips beyond British and Irish shores. Global greyhound racing is thriving, with the Melbourne Cup representing Australia’s premier greyhound contest.

Australia also has the Association Cup and Sandown Cup, which offer significant prize money and attract international participation. Beyond these are other featuring the world’s finest greyhounds competing at the highest level. For example, the New Zealand Cup in NZ, as well as the Copa de Espana de Galgos en Campo in Spain.

Effective Greyhound Racing Tips Strategy

We provide expert dog track betting tips that are built upon our in-house strategy. While it would take far too long to deep dive into our methodology, here’s a basic rundown of how best to approach your wagers.

Study Greyhound Form and Recent Results

Analyse each dog’s recent form and performances in competitive races, considering track conditions, race distances, and other performance metrics. We also recommend looking at race grading levels in those events for form study. Mostly because this can indicate which dogs are peaking or showing consistent improvement.

Monitor Trainer Performance and Kennel Form

One of the best greyhound tips UK punters should remember is the correlation between the quality of trainers and the environmental conditions of dogs. You’ll find many successful trainers consistently produce winners, given superior preparation, race planning, and aftercare. You can view a trainer’s reputation as well as statistics and kennel strike rates to find top dogs.

Understand Trap Draw Significance in Greyhound Betting

The trap position draw is allocated in adherence to Rule 76 and can significantly influence racing outcomes. This is particularly evident at tracks with sharp bends, with inside traps often providing advantages in sprint races. Wider draws can suit strong-finishing dogs in longer contests, and there are sometimes exceptions to these rules.
