30 million to 1 Greyhounds - I could have been rich!

This has been covered in the news here.

Killishan Masai, Ayamzagirl and Droopys Djokovic all won by a nose in the triple dead heat at odds of “30 million to one”. Not even photo-finish technology at the London track was able to determine a winner.


A huge cheer went up at Romford Stadium when the unprecedented triple win of the 8.50pm Coralcasino.com race was announced – at 925 metres it is the furthest distance that greyhounds can race over.

Simon Clare, of Coral Bookmakers, said: “We’d put the odds on it happening at 30 million to one – like winning the national lottery then getting struck by lightning.”


Jim Daly, 41, who trained Droopys Djokovic, said: “It was a good spectacle for greyhound racing and nice to be a part of the history.”


Romford and Wimbledon are the last two remaining dog tracks in London.

We used to have dogs at a track about 20 miles away I kinda liked dog racing, it would always tickle me though when a dog would take a dump and people would run to place a bet on him! LOL
