Greyhound Tipster: Queensland Betting Strategies

Albion Park

Race 2

(2) Double Malt has enormous turn of foot when he hits the ground, looks certain leader but can struggle the last 50m of the 520m. Held big lead to just get nabbed last week in a respectable time for this class after holding a large lead. If he can find some natural improvement and some strength from that run he will be tough to catch, does have to lead clearly to produce best form.

(6) Typhoon Mae ex NSW chaser just starting to find some form, is a winner at Wentworth Park in 30.31 which would win this race. Has awkward box draw but is capable of upsetting the favourite with a clear shot at him, 3^rd 2 starts back here and is a definite threat.

(7) Golden Sequel lacks early dash but placed last 4 starts and 2 of them here, deserves a change in luck and no surprise if she could find a nice position early will feature in the finish.

Betting Strategy

BACK (WIN) — Double Malt for 2 units (Rated $2.75)

Race 3

(6) Flying Luna been tackling some hard races of late but finds a winnable race here, only a small field but seems value considering it’s a four dog field and has beat some types at Ipswich where she seems to race better. Her 600m form here isn’t good but has taken on some smart types and willing to give a chance to win in town.

(1) It’s A Trick veteran chaser still racing with some zest, conditions of small field will suit but hasn’t won a race for 5 months and he will be long odds-on favourite here. Is the class runner being the winner of 19 races and is very versatile.

(4) Dundee Jazz ex-Victorian who has struggled since coming to Queensland, had some handy middle distance form over there, improvement is expected.

Betting Strategy

BACK (WIN) — Flying Luna to win for 1 unit (Rated $3.20)

Race 4

(2) Extra Malt extremely talented bitch who looks to be improving with every run, chased home fast dog last week when gallant 2^nd in quick time. Winner herself in fast 30.12 and this race looks ideal, does most things right and looks a nice bet even though she will be cramped odds.

(4) Peltzer was short-priced favourite last week when he had to pull a massive effort to get there. Only lightly raced but is another who has upside to him, smart 30.21 winner on debut so is more than handy. 

(1) Hardmarker noted slow beginner but racing well, drawing the rails will be a bonus but does give away big starts. Placed last 4 starts here and never far away.

Betting Strategy

BACK (WIN) — Extra Malt to win for 4 units (Rated $1.50)

Race 7

(6) Hopes King high-speed chaser who excels from this 395m start, has had 9 starts for 6wins from this distance with a blistering 22.41 to his credit. Handles most draws and looks a winner in a very suitable race.

(1) Good Boy Ivan been handy dog and last start winner in 22.97 getting all the breaks from this draw. Reliable type but would have to improve again on the clock to be a major player here.

(7) More Than Magic very capable type who can run time and has some class about her, better suited over longer distance than this but has won in 22.67 here. Very hit or miss early but does have a good engine when right, definite place hope.

Betting Strategy

BACK (WIN) — Hopes King to win for 3 units (Rated $1.75)
