Big Mike star attraction in Easter Cup

THE anticipated announcement of the new chairman of the Irish Greyhound Board didn’t materialise yesterday but word is now expected before the end of the week.

Minister for State Shane McEntee had stated on Sunday that the appointment would be made yesterday but the sad death of his father obviously caused a change of schedule.

On the racing front this week we have the finals of the Gallivan Murphy Hooper Dolan Juvenile Classic at Tralee tomorrow and then the finals of the Roches Feeds Oaks at Limerick and the Kudos Supersprint at Curraheen on Saturday.
