A lot of people can only get to the track on weekends, because they work during the week. Maybe they don’t want to go on weeknights, because they have to get up early the next morning. So they go on Friday night, Saturday afternoon or Saturday night. Maybe, Sunday.

Then there are people who go to the track on weekdays. Maybe they’re retirees or night workers. Maybe they work on weekends. They have a different track experience than the people who go on weekends. The track is generally quieter and less crowded during the weekday performances. There aren’t usually stakes or special races, because they’re held on weekends to attract a bigger crowd.

There’s another difference between going to the track on weekends and going during the week. I think it’s harder to make money during the week, and I’ll tell you why. It’s not because of the quality of the races, although there may be better races on the weekend when the bigger crowds come out. It’s not because the track rigs the races during the week to let the “insiders” make money, as many people think. In my opinion, it’s harder to make money at the dog track during the week because of the other bettors.

After all, pari-mutuel betting means that you’re betting against the other people at the track. That doesn’t change, no matter how many or how few people are there. However, I think that there’s a much smarter crowd betting on the greyhounds during the week, than there is on weekends.

The weekend crowd tends to be people who go to the track mostly for entertainment. Friday night is date night and you see a lot of couples out for dinner and a good time. They have a nice meal, bet their favorite numbers and maybe have a little luck. Then there are the casual bettors who only come to the track on Friday and Saturday and don’t pay much attention to the dogs the rest of the week.

They have no clue what’s going on beyond what they read in the program. This makes it easier for someone, like yourself, who does their research and has a good handicapping method, to out-handicap them and win their money. Unlike the people who are serious about winning at the dog track, the casual weekend bettor doesn’t usually have a good plan. They just quickly pick a dog or rely on a friend’s judgment or what the tip sheet says.

During the week, on the other hand, you’ll find that more of the bettors have done their homework, researched the dogs and are ready to bet wisely. This is why you might notice that you don’t make as much money when you go to the track on a Wednesday afternoon, as you do when you go on Friday night. You’re betting against bettors with more experience, self-control and information on weekdays.

Of course, no matter when you go to the dog track, there are always people who are serious about handicapping. This is why you need to do your homework before you go and give yourself every advantage that you can against the crowd, whether they’re weekend bettors or the smart-money bettors who go during the week. But if you want to give yourself an edge, go on the weekends.

Dog flu is an anti-viral viral infection of the upper-lower respiratory and digestive system that gives your canine companion runny stools. It was first diagnosed recently in Greyhounds at a number of racetracks in approximately eleven states, beginning with Florida. It isn’t contagious to humans, and it’s not as bad for dogs as you might think. It is a fairly new disease and is said to affect almost all canine when they come in contact with the said virus. This illness is not as serious as rabies and other disease which affects dogs. But care should be taken

Symptoms

Symptoms include a low-grade fever, nasal discharge, and a persistent cough that could last up to three weeks. Symptoms include a high fever, increased respiratory rates with difficulty breathing, and other indications of pneumonia. Symptoms generally appear two to five days after a dog is exposed to the virus. Symptoms are often mistaken for kennel cough a common canine illness.

Dog flu actually comes from Asia but is not related to the avian flu. It has become a major dog illness and this due to the relatively new emergence of the virus, there is no vaccine for it leading to 80% of dogs that come in contact with an infected animal also contracting the virus. It is a new, highly contagious and potentially deadly virus that causes respiratory infection only among dogs. It is not easy to diagnose because early symptoms mimic another common canine condition called kennel cough. You can treat dog flu with the proper treatment so for more on the treatment and management visit the website below.
