Greyhound racing: Kite to fly highest for Curraheen punters

The lightly raced Downdaniel Kite can put punters on the front foot in tonight’s battle with the bookmakers at Curraheen Park.

Noel O'Donoghue's dog comfortably landed the odds in A4 grade on his penultimate start, but found plenty of trouble when taking one step up the ladder last time.

On the latter occasion he missed the break but showed fine early pace to take a narrow lead around the opening bends. He was crowded out as he turned out of the second bend, but ran well to be beaten little more than four lengths in an admittedly modest winning time.
