| Although it is not nearly as popular as horse racing, greyhound racing still attracts a loyal following among bettors. One of the most appealing things about greyhound racing is the lack of human involvement, which makes the sport "pure" in the sense that it is as free from corruption as it's possible to get.
Races usually involve six or eight runners. The dogs begin the race in traps which are opened automatically at the start of the race. The dogs are motivated to run by a mechanical hare which starts "running" before they do.
As with horse racing, form is often the best guide to picking greyhound winners, but one thing you need to be aware of is that greyhound races often involve some jostling, especially around bends. This means that even runners with exceptional form can lose their races, leaving theoretically less able runners to go on and land the spoils.
