Fast facts
Greyhound racing in Australia goes back to greyhounds coursing during the gold rush days of the 1860s, but “tin hare” track racing began in New South Wales in 1927 and in Victoria in 1935.
Zoom Top is Australia’s most famous racing greyhound, capturing national headlines in the 1960s as the “Bradman of greyhound racing”. Zoom Top started 136 times, won 68 races and placed in another 39.
Greyhound trainer Mark Wallis has won the most “Greyhound Trainer of the Year” titles with 12.

Best bet
Canya Mayhem
He may not be the biggest greyhound, but he won the Melbourne Cup and was stiff not to win The Phoenix. He could be the sprint star of 2026.
Best value
Irish Bill
Big black Bill looks to be a Queensland greyhound who can make his mark on the major sprint races on the eastern seaboard.
Dark horse
Eriza Sparkles
The 2025 Dapto Megastar winner has recovered from injury, so expect her to have a stellar 2026.
