Having a solid plan for sports betting is essential, and we have outlined some of the most popular betting types for greyhound racing.
Win and Place Bets - The win market is the simplest bet available, replicating moneyline betting, but you can also place on a greyhound to finish. If one healthy greyhound sticks out, you may be tempted, and typically place bets are lower than win bets.
Forecast - This entails predicting which greyhounds will finish first and second in a race meeting.
Tricast - Slightly more sophisticated, you will have to predict the order of greyhounds to finish first, second, and third.
