What percentage should one factor in when having a bet on Greyhounds ? People may say it works both ways I disagree with that of Course on the Odd occasion it does ...
Perhaps one of the most used words in greyhound racing is " DESPERATE " if a study was carried out over say 1000 Races ,What percentage of results would include the "L FACTOR"
The % would be interesting to know , I would say around 10/15 % of Losing bets would be involved perhaps 5% the other way .. I will add a List of L FACTOR happenings tomorrow

I would say more luck involved than any other sport , Think of the Big Comps how much is a dog winning the Derby down to the Luck of the Draw or Staying Fit .

its all part and parcel of your investment , Imagine telling someone who knew nowt about dogs your having a bet but this is what can go Wrong in any given race |

Watched one the other day, he took the lead off him putting him in the traps, and the dog bolted from him, did his own race while the other 5 were still in the boxes lmao. yup, it got voided of course

It proved one thing though, they dont need a hare to chase, he did a full circuit running after feckall :)

A new one has hit the list , the possibility of your selection being fired into orbit as the traps open .

I've always known that GTFI. Have seen, and several times, as I'm sure many have, traps being triggered early ( for whatever reason ) and the full six pack chasing bu gger all for the full race trip. I also once saw the same field boxed again after the last and the race ran - and that on a warm summer's night! Criminal really. And I agree with case - the Derby has long since been an endurance test where good luck is an essential. But we keep coming back for more.
