Speed Star: Head-to-head greyhound racing returns to Sandown this Sunday

Greyhound racing’s exciting Speed Star concept returns to Sandown this Sunday with one-on-one greyhound racing taking over the entire card of racing.

The meeting will comprise 40 greyhounds competing across 20 matches in what is greyhound racing’s answer to Twenty20 cricket.

Sports punters love the Speed Star concept as they can multi-up a handful of greyhounds in head-to-head betting, not dissimilar to selecting a handful of teams in a round of AFL footy.
Matches will be run over 515m, 595m and 715m with a race approximately every eight minutes.

Among the most anticipated match-ups will be Orson Allen v Dyna Patty, who are both at $1.90 in the head-to-head market, while punters can also bet on a range of other markets including whether or not a track record will fall.

Sunday’s first Speed Star match is scheduled for 5.39pm.
