Frequently Asked Questions
How are the predictions produced?
We create a computer model for each course and distance using statistics from previous results. Only the top grades over that distance are included as we have found in the past that the races at the top grades were more predictable. Every day statistics are produced for the days races and the model is then applied to attempt to predict the days results.
What does the greyhounds score represent?
When the prediction model is trained a winning dog is given the score 100 and the greyhound finishing last is given the score 0. The model attempts to predict the future outcome with the same scores. So the higher the score the higher the system believes are the chances of the greyhound winning the race.
What are the best races to bet on?
It has been found in the past that races where one or two dogs have a significantly higher score than the rest of the field are the best. No system can ever accurately predict every individual race, the aim is to make predictions offering a statistical advantage over a period of races.
Two or more greyhounds have a prediction over 90 and/or the same score - what does this mean?
The statistics used in the predictions are relative to each other. The system produces the prediction value independently for each dog. Therefore the system can give the dogs a similar chance of winning. It may be a strategy to make a forecast or tri-cast bet on these dogs.
What statistics are used from previous results?
Only the last seven races the dog ran in are included in the statistics. Variables included in the model are fastest time, position at first corner, average time and grade average. The models are continuously being evolved and tweaked. Results vary between venues and distances click here for stats of the latest performances.
Why are some greyhounds missing/Why are there less than 6 greyhounds in a predicted race?
If previous results are not available for a greyhound it will be excluded from the races predictions. Previous results must be from a comparible venue and distance combination. If you believe a greyhound has been erroneously excluded please leave a message on the forum and let us know the details.
