Resolution of SIS saga a positive from tough week

It has been an up-and-down week in greyhound racing, the obvious positive being the end to the saga over a deal with SIS to show live pictures from Mullingar, Youghal and Tralee.

The deal, which includes international streaming rights, will show more than 1,500 races a year across the three tracks, and the possible extension of that must read as another positive.

The congratulations must go the racing managers, owners, trainers and bookmakers who went out of their way to make this happen.
