May 4 Greyhounds Betting Tips & Predictions
Let’s look at the top May 4 Greyhounds betting tips. We have a hectic week of greyhound racing ahead with followers of the sport enjoying tournaments of note on Tuesday to finish the month in style before we go straight into Saturday’s schedule, headlined by the RPGTV 500. Followers can bet on the action and follow the racing live on Racing Post Greyhound TV or with any major bookmaker through a faultless live stream. Backing blind is a thing of the past in the industry.
Bookmakers have priced up three major competitions this week at the time of writing. As well as the RPGTV 500, they also offer early books on the winner of the Scottish Derby at Shawfield on Tuesday, and the Northern Sprint on the same night. Flick through the form of the runners involved and make your antepost bets. You can bet as a single to give yourself the best chance of grabbing a profit, while those after more may want to throw a few together in a multiple, such as a Trixie. If you can’t quite decide on the winner, each-way betting gives punters a bit more of a safety net.
Our team of greyhound tipsters and sports betting enthusiasts have run over the form and figures, previewing the three major races of the week, before offering our thoughts on how best to invest your cash to secure a profit. We’ll also explain which bookmakers are offering market best odds and this is crucial for those serious about making a profit from their predictions.
Scottish Derby
The latest from what has already been a pulsating Scottish Derby at Shawfield and fans who get themselves along to the Glasgow venue will be guaranteed an evening of entertainment. If you can’t make it along to watch the racing in person, you can always keep tabs on the results thanks to the live coverage offered by RPGTV, with a sizeable audience expected.
We have arrived at the semi-final stage and the best dogs from the night will go on to contest the grand final. You can bet on the winner of each race or look ahead to the overall champion by getting in early to secure a better price on your dog of choice. Betting on the winner of the Scottish Greyhound Derby before the semis and beating the queues will see you take more of a chance than waiting for the final field to be decided, but you’ll also get more of a reward for your efforts.
They’re Ready to Quote
Bookmakers have had their say and Droopys Verve is favourite with all leading firms. The jolly is tight in the betting but the 8/11 offered by William Hill is just a little better than you’ll get elsewhere, many firms offering 4/6 on the same bet. That tells us the money men just can’t see past Droopys Verve, but we don’t want to be cheering an odds-on shot in a competition where anything could happen and if the fav is going to win we’ll let him do it, looking elsewhere for our value fix.
Braveheart Bobby is an 8/1 shot with Bet365 at the time of writing and that makes more appeal than going with the market leader. Trained by the capable hands of Buckley, this 2016 dog has impressed us of late, but we expect more from him and that’ll hopefully come in midweek. He was second here earlier this month when finishing behind Droopys Davy and will have to build on that, but we’re expecting him to do just that. Each-way backers will get 1/4 the odds a place 1-2.
