Local businessman wants to buy Guinness Trophy to keep it in Cork

The Gain Cup 2016 is dominating proceedings at Curraheen Park at the moment and, keeping up the tradition of the Guinness Trophy, which it has replaced, it is a very competitive stake.

Earlier in the week I got a call from an interested party, concerned about the Guinness Trophy - the cup itself - and where it is or where it may have gone to.

For those who may not have seen it, it is a sight to behold, an imposing piece of silverware, much bigger than anything presented in Irish greyhound racing.
