Peter Walker

Peter Walker honed his analytical skills while working as a cataloguer for the British Library.

His interest in greyhounds and the development of time-analysis techniques started over a decade ago.

He also joined a racing syndicate when Coolavanny Rebel came over to Sheffield from Ireland in 2015.

Peter is now retired and still lives with his family in Leeds.

He produces greyhound rating analysis for most of the prestigious competitions and regular content is made available on the Greyhound Weekly website.
