Greyhound selection ain't about finding the best animal.
Its about finding the animal that is most likely to perform the best in this particular race.

And that is where the OVERLAYS are to be found.
Finding a race where an animal won't perform at its Best opens the door for lesser animals to salute.

Some dogs are erratic in their consistency, and they are the animals that allow Overs to be found amongst their competitors if you can find the race where they will have problems negotiating the event.

The MEADOWS Race 5

5 AMAKLER GIRL $4
8 MISS HOT SPECIAL $6.5
7 OUR TOYMAN $7.8
6 BIG TIME PLAYER $8
2 WHERE'S MUM $9
1 DEADLY HANDSOME $10
3 EXHIBIT BALE $12
4 REGGIE STRIKE $25

In this Event, it seems that OUR TOYMAN is the BEST dog in the race, but dissappoints as often as it salutes.
I ain't got no video of it, so I don't know why it does.
Possibly it needs to lead to perform well.
Well it certainly will have a hard time leading from Box 7 at The Meadows, especially with AMAKLER GIRL in the race.
I'll stay out and watch AMAKLER GIRL get run down, but may be tempted with the usual $5 wager if the Odds are suitable.

I got my fingers burnt playing with LAYING animals, so I won't go there because it just don't sit comfortably with my personality and financial situation.
