No. Commercial greyhound racing in New Zealand ended on 31 July 2026 under legislation passed earlier that year. We keep the New Zealand track profiles — Manukau, Addington, Forbury Park and the others — as the historical record, and New Zealand-bred greyhounds continue to race prominently in Australia.

Yes, for now. Tasmania is phasing out greyhound racing by 30 June 2029 under legislation passed in December 2025, and a breeding ban took effect on 1 January 2026. Racing continues at Hobart (Elwick), Launceston (Mowbray) and Devonport until the closure date.

The Group 1 calendar is headlined by the Melbourne Cup and Australian Cup at The Meadows, the Golden Easter Egg at Wentworth Park, the Brisbane Cup at Albion Park, the Adelaide Cup at Angle Park, the Perth Cup at Cannington and the Hobart Thousand at Elwick — the oldest continuously run greyhound classic in the country.

Most Australian greyhound meetings are night fixtures: Sydney's Wentworth Park, Melbourne's The Meadows and Sandown, Brisbane's Albion Park, Adelaide's Angle Park and Perth's Cannington typically begin between 6pm and 7:30pm local time. Day meetings at country and Tasmanian tracks usually start in the early afternoon. UK and Irish meetings, popular with Australian punters, screen from around 5am to 9am AEST.

Greyhound form figures show finishing positions from most recent run backwards — so '1432' means the dog won two starts ago, then ran fourth, third and second. A '0' usually means the dog finished outside the placings or was unplaced, while letters like 'M' denote a maiden win in some form guides. Always read form left-to-right as oldest-to-newest or the reverse depending on the guide, and check which track and distance each run was at.

Each greyhound wears a coloured rug numbered 1 to 8 and starts from a corresponding box. Because greyhounds can't be steered, the box a dog starts from heavily influences its chances — inside boxes are favoured at many tracks, though the bias varies by circuit and distance. Our box draw bias guide explains how to weight the barrier for each track.

The best greyhound betting sites are licensed Australian bookmakers that offer competitive fixed odds on every Australian meeting, UK and Irish coverage, free live streaming, and fast payouts.

Yes. All major Australian bookmakers offer UK and Irish greyhound meetings, which run through the Australian morning and early afternoon due to the time difference. Many also stream the races free to logged-in customers. See our guide to betting on UK and Irish greyhounds from Australia for the details.

The quadrella (quaddie) is a bet requiring you to pick the winner of four nominated races on a card. It is a pari-mutuel pool bet, so dividends depend on how much is in the pool and how many tickets win. It is one of the most popular greyhound exotics in Australia, with metro pools regularly reaching six figures.

New Zealand's government legislated to end commercial greyhound racing, with the final meeting run in July 2026. The decision followed years of debate over animal-welfare standards and industry sustainability, and made New Zealand one of the few jurisdictions to wind down the sport entirely. Track profiles for New Zealand's former venues remain on this site for historical reference.

The Melbourne Cup at Sandown in late November is Australia's richest and most famous greyhound race, with a first prize exceeding $500,000. It headlines a massive night card that is one of the biggest wagering events of the Australian greyhound year.

Greyhounds progress through a class system based on performance, typically rising from maidens through Grade 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 to open company. Wins move a dog up a grade; a string of unplaced runs can move it down. Understanding these class movements — class rises and class drops — is one of the most powerful angles in greyhound form analysis.

SP means 'starting price' — the final odds a dog was at when betting closed on the race. Results listings show SP so you can see what the market thought of each runner, and tote dividends are calculated from the SP-weighted pools. Comparing SP to earlier fixed odds shows which dogs were backed and which drifted.
