Have you got your head around the Australian Greyhound Racing Calendar?
There’s 31 Group 1 greyhound races in Australia in 2020/21, across all states. There’s Group 1 action right throughout the year on the greyhounds.
Group 1 greyhound racing is already underway. Classy Ethics took out the G1 Queensland Cup last week at Albion Park. In the main race, Black Opium took out the $54,000 G1 Brisbane Cup.
The Group 1 greyhound racing calendar continues this week with two Group 1 finals, the Peter Mosman Opal and Vic Peters, at Wentworth Park. Stay tuned for a full preview of the races from our greyhound racing expert, Joe Lannutti.
