Derby class sprinter to join team but who will own him ?

Our 'main man' in Ireland has done it again - He has quickly secured a deal and beat a lot of other leading owners and trainers to land a smashing open racer for us at Westview Kennels.
 
"Drumcove Lad" has been competing in the £25,000 Bar one National Sprint in Dundalk.This competition contained some of the fastest greyhounds in Ireland or the UK. The Likes of "Cracking Man" - £100,000 refused - "Spearhawk" - 28.47 Clonmel - £40,000 refused - "Mozzletoff" - 28.30 Shelbourne Park - Irish oaks 2nd.
 
Despite being very inexperienced compared to the rest of his all star opponents - "Drumcove Lad" produced some brilliant displays. In Round 2 of the Competition - he showed lightning early pace and came home to win his heat beating "Shoemakers lad" (sold for £25k) In the £25,000 Final only last Sunday - "Drumcove Lad" was drawn in Trap 1 - In trap 2 was "Shoemakers lad" - Trap 4 - "Cracking Man" and Trap 5 was "Yes boss" - voted Irish Sprinter of the year."Drumcove Lad" showed massive early to the corner where he was denied racing room by "Cracking Man" and "Shoemakers lad". Up the home stretch these 3 flying machines battled it out - "Drumcove Lad" had to eventually settle for 3rd behind "Shoemakers lad" and "Cracking Man" in an aeroplane winning  time of 21.10 - Irish sprinter of the year "Yes boss" was back in 5th. He was only beaten 2 lengths by "Cracking Man" - They have refused up to £100,000 for him - "Cracking Man" has 28.05 for the 525 yards and 28.40 Shelbourne park.

Yes -"Drumcove Lad's" form is certainly from the top draw - It is extremely rare that we are able to offer you a recent classic finalist who is very lightly raced.

"Drumcove Lad" - with his early gears is ideal for all the major category one events in the NGRC racing calendar. He has done 21.30 at Dundalk regularly which is serious top class pace.

This lad can be bought ourtight for £10,000 or I'd consider a syndicate. Like all the dogs I post they do tend to sell very quickly so if you are interested please call straight away.
