Barrack Bimbo serves notice

BARRACK BIMBO (Bexhill Eoin-Barrack Court), owned in Tournafulla, Co Limerick by young Shane Curtin, served notice to all opponents in the Greyhound and Pet World Oaks next month she is ready, willing and well able to challengeall-comers.

She showed real class and stamina over the two days in Abbeyfeale bytaking the Corn Na Féile puppy event from her male opponents.

Having collected her Oaks permit at Loughrea in late October, she wil certainly be on many “short lists” to collect the classic in Clonmel. Freely available at 12/1 in the long-oddsbetting on Wednesday morning, she led by five lengths against the Ennis/ Clarecastle qualifier Awe and Wonder.
