Race of Champions draw put back

THE draw for the Paddy O’Sullivan Race of Champions at Tralee, due to be made yesterday, has been put back to today in a bid for more entries.

It highlights the problems of getting entries for open events at this stage of the year with so many valuable competitions overlapping.

The Irish Greyhound Board and RTÉ have agreed to stream three live webcasts from Harold’s Cross, Cork and Limerick over the coming months. The first ever live webcast was broadcast from Harold’s Cross last year and the Gain Feeds Corn Cuchulainn will again open this year’s schedule on Friday, July 15.
