ALL ACTION AT SHELBOURNE

Ian Fortune

The Shelbourne Park year is certainly in full flight and the action continues at pace in the coming weeks.

This weekend features the semi-finals of the wonderfully popular Shelbourne Open 600, while the following week two tremendous competitions get underway with the start of the Islandbridge Open Sprint and the Shelbourne Champion 550.

Obviously, the Islandbridge Sprint has been won by some brilliant greyhounds in the past and the best two-bend trackers in training are likely to be targeting this year’s renewal, while the placing of the Champion 550 couldn’t be any better with many of the greyhounds that contested the Kirby Memorial likely to take their chance in the valuable stake.
