Betting on greyhound racing from Ireland: markets and settlement rules

• Win. The selection finishes first.
• Forecast. First and second in the stated order.
• Reverse forecast. First and second in either order, placed as two bets.
• Tricast. First, second and third in the stated order.
• Tote. Pooled bets paid from the pool, not at fixed odds.

Names and availability differ by operator.

Bottom line: win, forecast and tricast bets are the core menu; tote bets are pooled.

Example with invented figures: a reverse forecast on two dogs is two bets. At €2.00 a bet it costs €4.00.

A combination tricast on three dogs covers six orders (3 × 2 × 1). At €1.00 a bet it costs €6.00.

The total is the unit stake multiplied by the number of bets covered.

Bottom line: cost is the unit stake times the number of combinations.

Operators' rules cover non-runners, reserve dogs and what happens when a race is void. They also state how forecast and tricast returns are calculated.

None of this wording has been recorded yet. The fields to record are in the settlement rules table.

Bottom line: payout rules are operator wording and are still to be read.

Operator names are candidates, licence to be confirmed on the GRAI register. A cell stays unverified until the operator's own page is read.

TDCO Limited, trading as “Tote”, is listed on the GRAI register according to our research notes. Its entry is to be confirmed on publication day: GRAI licence register.

Bottom line: no operator's greyhound rules are recorded yet.

Race times and venues come from the body that organises greyhound racing in Ireland. Its site has not yet been identified; the source is to be found at the facts stage and rechecked every 7 days.

No race time is shown on this page (could not be verified on 7 november 2026).

Bottom line: the organiser's site is the source for times, and it is not yet named.

Odds are not published here. We did not test any bet. The page does not rank operators for greyhound racing.

For the horse-racing equivalent, see horse racing. Sections by operator will appear in the market coverage table.

Bottom line: no ranking is possible until rules and menus are recorded.
