KNEGARE 600 FAVOURITE ONCE AGAIN

Ian Fortune

In the days leading up to the start of the 2025 Shelbourne Open 600, Callaway Knegare was the 2-1 favourite to emerge victorious.

He would eventually reach the final, posting a rapid 32.10 in the semis before suffering an odds-on defeat in the decider.

A year on, after a fine recent Easter Cup campaign, he is back for another crack at the Shelbourne Open 600 and BOYLE Sports make him favourite once again to add another classic success, after his 2024 Juvenile Derby title, to his impressive CV. This year he is available at the bigger price of 4-1 but he remains at the head of affairs.

His nearest market rivals are the defending champions Ballyhooly Bruno and the talented Lemon Hidalgo at 6-1. Coosane Pickles is the only other runner at single figure odds at 8-1. The full market can b seen below:
