GREYHOUND RACING - A GREAT NIGHT OUT

Greyhound racing is a fantastic night out, there's no doubt about it. Every UK stadium has great facilities like bars with full view of the track and in-house live video so you won't miss a moment of the action. Greyhounds can cover 500 metres in roughly 30 seconds and, with races taking place about every 15 minutes at most tracks, it's non-stop furious action. Placing bets and trying to pick the winner just adds all the more fun to the evening. However, if you can't make it, then visiting 24dogs for online betting brings the excitement of watching the dogs and placing a bet onto your PC.

PLACE YOUR BETS
After studying the races and choosing which dog to bet on, it's time to place your bet. If you are playing with small stakes, it's easy to bet on the track's tote, although bigger players may prefer betting with the bookmakers.

You've picked your greyhound and its race, you know in your own mind whether it is a strong fancy or only in with a chance. Write down the price you will be happy with and don't bet at any shorter price. It's a risky business as you may end up not betting because you didn't get the price you wanted, only to watch your dog win. To make betting even simpler, log on to 24dogs' online betting site. There you can see the odds, study previous form through online video replays from UK tracks such as Wimbledon, Catford and Walthamstow and download online form guides up to 60 hours before a meeting.
