why so few owners grade(or seed, whatever the terminology) their dogs as railers? does it not happen that often that a dog runs close to the rails? and does the seed really matter in the outcome of the race.

The racetrack manager/grader is the person that runs the dogs in trials and then decides which ones are railers, middle runners or wide runners.Vladimir CC wrote: ↑Wed Dec 30, 2020 8:21 pmwhy so few owners grade(or seed, whatever the terminology) their dogs as railers? does it not happen that often that a dog runs close to the rails? and does the seed really matter in the outcome of the race.
This is important as it reduces the trouble in running that would/could occur if they just allotted any old trap position before a race.

so this means that in a race with 1 rail runner, 3mr & 2wr, the rr gets trap 1, mr's get traps 2-4 and wr's get traps 5-6? because i think i've seen races with mr's placed on the outside, while the wr was placed in the middle of the fieldwearthefoxhat wrote: ↑Wed Dec 30, 2020 8:28 pm

Yes to the example you gave.Vladimir CC wrote: ↑Wed Dec 30, 2020 8:42 pmso this means that in a race with 1 rail runner, 3mr & 2wr, the rr gets trap 1, mr's get traps 2-4 and wr's get traps 5-6? because i think i've seen races with mr's placed on the outside, while the wr was placed in the middle of the fieldwearthefoxhat wrote: ↑Wed Dec 30, 2020 8:28 pm

In theory, if a W runner is placed in midfield, it should only be because there are other wide runners seeded to the right of it.
If there are racing managers that put the dogs in a random order, despite their style of running, then it could well lead to first bend carnage!
Race reading a greyhound race, and accounting for the style of a runner is a big part for a punter. In the example you gave, if the only railer also has good early pace with good times to back it up, then it's a good bet. Alternatively, races with only 1 (W)ide runner with early pace and good times, will be good too.

Some huge drifts and steams on todays dogs even by normal standards, there must be ways for trainers to have their dog run below par that are undetectable, like skipping a meal or giving the wrong kind of meal. I just take it for granted the dogs is the most corrupt sport in UK but maybe I'm wrong.
I often notice the dog that saw a gigantic drift misses the break.

Anyone know if there was a problem with the 10:46 CPark 11th Jan / 10:46 D4 265m race?
Not sure, but I did notice it was still showing suspended about 30 mins later, where other completed later races had closed.
The race did happen by the looks of it - https://www.timeform.com/greyhound-raci ... -11/845937
