Weekend flurry of top class action

A MOST eventful year on the Irish greyhound front accelerates towards its end and it will finish as it began - with a flurry of top class open action all over the country.

There will be major finals at three venues and some interesting lesser finals elsewhere but pride of place must go to Harold’s Cross on Friday and then Shelbourne and Tralee on Saturday.

This year’s Comerford Cakes National Puppy Stake would rival any of those which have gone before. Unfortunately the highly talented Cabra Noel didn’t make it through to the final but there is a high class final with Razldazl Will now the favourite to land the prize of €15,000.
