Dog racing seems to be available globally 24/7 - 365 days a year and appears bombproof in terms of weather/pandemic situations. Most races are available to stream live on Betfair for free. I will post here work permitting. Selections will be to Back to win unless stated otherwise.

Feel free to post your own selections

Wrong forum.

Whilst you are technically correct sparrow, I felt that was a tad harsh, given that it's the guy's first post in 17 years. Seaside used to post dog racing tips in here all the time, and I can't remember anything controversial coming from that. Wink

Monty, I don't personally bet on dogs, and I can't speak for everyone, but if you want to put your dog racing tips up on this thread then as far as I am concerned you can crack on. A word of warning though, you will need a thick skin, particularly if you have a losing run.

undertaker, the fact that it was his his first post was the reason for my posting.  He may not be aware that there is a Greyhound Forum.

used to go in the 70s catford 8 dog races sprints marathons  and handicaps were on the card great atmosphere and a cheap night out entrance fee drinks ,although with gambling the cheap night out often turned out expensive and in the words of jim bowen bfh "bus fare home " make sure you saved it!

I used to go to Bristol (Eastville) back in the day. I think it's an Ikea now. Sad

Correct, undertaker
Used to be a big gasholder next to Eastville, also home of Bristol Rovers until the 90s, hence their nickname Gasheads

Foyles, Catford for me as well in the 70s and 80s,as well as the big old galloping track at Crayford before the supermarket bought it and replaced it with the smaller track we still have today
Catford the first track I remember being asked by a kid for money to "look after your car". It was worth paying the 20p or whatever

Good luck Monty.

Plenty on here have ended up going to the dogs, so I think you are on the right forum.

Yeah the Gasheads, and Bristol City fans would chant 'The Gas, The Gas, we gotta get rid of The Gas'

The last greyhound meeting was a BAGS meeting on a Monday afternoon in Oct.1997. Huge Ikea store now. When they dug up the pitch they were selling squares of turf down Eastville market. 100 years of sport at Eastville which included Greyhound Racing for almost 70 years.

FOYLESWAR & Reg, Catford was my second home and I hardly missed a meeting there for over 20 years until it closed in 2003. It's 'no offers' we would have been on the terraces together at some stage.

My ideal Saturday would be breakfast at Hackney Wick dogs, served by Pearl there of course, off to Selhurst Park when we were at home, back to The Crown And Greyhound in Dulwich for beers, then a taxi to Catford for the evening dogs. Or if the Derby heats or another big competition was at Wimbledon then we'd go there instead but Catford was always first choice.

A layer you two would no doubt remember From your Catford days was Dave Richardson who was second main layer after John Humphries, I saw him at Plumpton the other day and exchanged season greetings with him and he remembered me from way back then when I was
" down to boy".

The salad days for sure.
