July 1 Greyhound Betting Tips & Predictions
The English Greyhound Derby is in the books, bringing an end to what was another stunning renewal of the sport’s favourite competition. There’s still plenty to bet on, however, with races and antepost lists designed to hold your interest as we head into a new week and the early part of July. Here are our top July 1 greyhound betting tips.
The Irish Greyhound Derby gets started on the opening day of the month with the heats taking place on Monday 1 July. Like it’s cousin in England, this is a tournament that attracts a large audience with punters from all over the world betting early in the hope of securing a bigger price on their selection. The earlier you bet the more risk involved, but the rewards are far greater.
Irish Greyhound Derby Gets Started
The Irish Greyhound Derby antepost betting offers plenty of value with a wide-open field to choose from. Lenson Blinder is current favourite and the fact there’s a 20/1 price tag attached by Bet365 shows just what we can expect to find. There are a wide range of quotes across the board, with much indecision amongst traders and that will catch the eye of value hunters who make a profit pouncing on any indecision.
We plan on steering clear of the Irish Greyhound Derby during the heats and would much prefer to keep our powder dry until we’ve seen the first round of heats and get an idea of what dogs are running on the competition and the names that appear to be in form. If you would like to jump the gun and get in early, we’d say you could do a lot worse than backing Ballymac Cooper as there’s bits and pieces of 25/1 available while many firms go only 16/1 on the same dog.
Another That Has Kept Traders Guessing
Looking to later in the week and we have the Brisbane Cup and Bendigo Cup to look forward to. The Brisbane Cup takes place on Thursday 4 July and this is another race that has kept traders guessing in the build-up. There’s very little between the main players in the field with no more than a point the difference between the first four dogs in the betting. Considering there’s only 10 to choose from, that proves just how competitive traders expect this race to be.
Black Opium is 2/1 favourite at the time of writing and that’s joined by Orson Allen who is also available at the 2/1 mark. A straight shoot-out between the first two on the list or is it worth casting your eye further down the pecking order in the hope of picking out a lively contender at a bigger price? Sennachie certainly can’t be taken lightly and is available at 5/2 while you’ll find Dyna Patty with a 3/1 tag slapped on its back by the money men. Lots to think about here.
The Brisbane Cup is Group 1 contest, so we know winning it will be no mean feat and the fact there’s over 75,000 AUD paid in prize money to the winner means the biggest and best in the field will be in attendance. We are guaranteed a thrilling race as the field battle it out over 520 at Albion Park in an attempt to etch their name into the history books. The winner of this race would add their name to an exclusive honours roll.
