Greyhound Lines

The first time I heard someone call a dog a fake, I have no idea what they meant. How can a dog be a fake? I know many people who are impostors, who act like something they are not. But dogs are not "act" at all. What you see is what you get with dogs.

Over time, I learned that a "fake" dog on the runway for Greyhound is a dog that looks better than it works. Not that the dog tries to trick you or anything. It's just that its performance can sucker you in paris when you should not.

An example of a fake is the dog who won a six lengths and was now running in a race issues. He looked really good, because I saw the track where he won by a mile and he just blew by the other dogs, as they stood still.

When I put it, it was 4-1, but when the race went, it was the favorite, even if there were other good dogs in the race. So what happened? It was the last one - six lengths behind the other dogs, this time.

When I looked back over his lines at the last race where he won for fun, I realized that race was a "fun" race. Of course, it was a race A, but the dogs was not the cream of the cream. Most of them had just won in B or who had never won in the same if they had a couple in the A. Race

Competition issues in the race was much more difficult. All had played in A, some repeatedly. They used to winning. The dog I had won a bet once and did not need to really try to do.

So it was a fake and that I was a sucker for him paris. But I learned from this experience and become a better handicapper. Now I look at the competition in every race where a dog has won by a wide margin. Many times, it's because other dogs are second order, not because the winner is first rate.
