Hi all, will one of you kind gentlemen please help me out. I'm interested in learing about Greyhound racing, especially reading the form guide in the Herald Sun.
If one of you could give me a few pointers, or point out a web site. I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Mike.

Herald Sun?

If thats a Melboune newspaper, then you best bet would be the GRV Website.

And here's another website affiliated to the above.

A pointer?

If you are a horse Punter, then beware.
Greyhounds do not have a brain like a jockey.
They have a brain the size of a peanut or maybe a walnut.
They make a mess of most of their races, and you can't get stewards to help you if your animal was badly hampered in a race.

There are a million ways to lose on greyhounds , so just be prepared for them.
Many Punters givr it away because their dog got bowled over and they never seem to get a run for their money.

This is the way Greyhound racing is, and always remember, the other animals have pretty much got the same chance of getting bowled over as yours.

Hello Moeee,
thanks for the reply and links.

Greyhounds have a brain the size of a peanut or a walnut, sounds like some jockeys, lol.
I'll keep your comments in mind.

Thanks again and good luck to you,
Mike.
