Release The Hounds - thanks for that. I did a quick analysis on the relative success of each box number over the last year (ignoring any emergencies) for every greyhound race run. As Rooburger noted box 1 is the most successful (19.4% SR) followed by 8 (14.4) and 2 (14.2) with 6 the least successful (10.4). However it seems that the punters overestimate the advantage of box 1 and overbet it as it has one of the biggest losses - 6 is worst followed by 1 and 8. Box 2 is the best profit wise but still loses nearly 13%. Once again the highest strike rate is not the most profitable!

Anyway I have wasted enough space on this thread so will leave it for anyone who has comments on Angels original post.
