Race and Final Conclusion
In this final section of the 'Science of Greyhound Racing Prediction' I explain how to use our greyhound software to view your own future dog races and will be discussing the relevant probabilities of achieving a successful winning dog race prediction.
The Race
Now sit back and watch real-time simulated greyhound racing in the comfort of your own home!
Once the Greyhound Predictor v2.0 racetrack has loaded, you can choose to select the Display Mode by using the left/right cursor keys situated on your keyboard. This 'special race feature' lets you view the current 'dog speeds' in either metres or yards per second, miles or kilometres per hour and also shows the distances travelled by each greyhound at any point around the track.
Now Press Spacebar to start the hare running. As soon as the 'traps open' each greyhound's race position will be continuously up dated in the 'race predictor' shown on both sides of your computer screen.
At all times, during the race, you can Press Spacebar to Pause the Action, this gives those more serious 'dog race punters' the opportunity to view and examine the expected racing positions of any dog anywhere around the racetrack, therefore, allowing you to study the future possibilities of any crowding, bumping or baulking occurring between the runners at any time in a race. Please note by re-pressing the spacebar the race continues from the exact same moment in time, it was originally paused, note also that all winning racetimes or greyhound racing predictions are not effected by pausing then re-starting a race.
As soon as the race finishes a scoreboard will show the official result together with each dog's final finishing position, the official winning time, the leading dog's fastest sectional time, the track conditions, the race length and of course the final race prediction!
You may select Photo to see the actual photo finish as the first greyhound crossed the winning line.
Please Note: Already registered 'Greyhound Predictors' will be given the choice to select Race Again, this limited game feature is only fully functionable in the full registered version!
Registering Greyhound Predictor Software not only allows you the opportunity to 're-run the race' with the same greyhound statistics, therefore, informing you of other possible variations and future outcomes of the same race, but also most importantly lets you go back and alter quickly any greyhound data that may need to be changed!
To get the very best results from the 'Predictor' I suggest each individual race set-up be run 'several times' with all final race predictions written down separately and studied carefully, in order to help improve your own chances of obtaining the necessary insight required to make an accurate and successful winning prediction!
Science of Greyhound Racing Prediction - Final Conclusion
It is with immense gratitude to my own family and friends and the many people, who over the years and more recently via the internet, have shared with me their own greyhound knowledge, that I'm now able to express my own original ideas and general observations in attempting to fully comprehend the complexities involved when studying the 'science of greyhound race prediction'.
Many people regularly inquire about the actual 'strike rate' or 'percentage of winners' concerning the accuracy of the Predictor, here at Greyhound Predictor we believe that each individual person will have their own independent strike rate of winners and therefore no percentages of accuracy are stated, although, in fairness, I should explain the general probabilities involved in accurately predicting real greyhound race winners.
Picking dog winners technically speaking, will always be easier in '6 dog racing countries' such as U.K. and European greyhound racing, where the probability of backing a winner is theoretically 1 in 6 compared to 8 dog racing nations such as Australian, New Zealand, American, South American and Asian greyhound racing, where the probability is always theoretically 1 in 8.
Predicting the first and second as in greyhound forecasts or quinellas is easier in U.K. and European dog racing, as the probability is 1 in 30 (6 x 5) compared to 1 in 56 (8 x 7) in 8 dog greyhound race countries.
The theoretical probability of successfully predicting the first, second and third as in straight tricast bets is 1 in 120 (6 x 5 x 4) in 6 dog racing countries which is obviously more predictable then 8 dog race trifectas where the probability is 1 in 336 (8 x 7 x 6).
Predicting the first four places in correct race order, as in Supertrifecta bets is only operational in greyhound countries with 8 dog tote pool races and theoretically has a probability of 1 in 1680 (8 x 7 x 6 x 5).
All 'greyhound fans' will appreciate that these 'underlying probabilities' always exist when betting on greyhounds.
In this my final conclusion, it is my opinion, out of all the Greyhound Predictor questions asked, the accuracy of your answer entered for a greyhound's best time, is by far the most important greyhound stat and therefore, I recommend you pay particular attention to this raceform statistic, as overall, the accuracy of the 'Predictor' will no doubt almost certainly depend on the relevant 'accuracy' of the information entered!
Only the 'Predictor' lets 'dog racing enthusiasts' worldwide, pre-study middle-distance greyhound races run in real-racetime, it takes into consideration all the so called 'imponderables' and 'variables' and offers you a realistic chance of accurately predicting your own future race winners!
The Greyhound Predictor Software really is "The tipping tool with a difference!"
