THE opening round heats of the Limerick and Clare GOBA A3 525 featured on Saturday night’s card at Limerick Greyhound Stadium and the bar was set very high by Missouri Ebony, of the Corona Ryan Kennels of Knocklong.
Stepping back in grade to compete in the event, Missouri Ebony was installed as the 4/5 favourite and he duly got back to winning ways for the first since October 2024.
Lauras Pick landed heat one of the sweepstake for joint owners Michael and Laura Nash, Ballyneety.
There was a shock in heat three as 5/1 chance, Grouchos Pearl, scored for a second career time for local Luke O’Connell.
Patrick Guilfoyle (Cloughjordan, County Tipperary) had reason to celebrate also as Magical On Fire landed the concluding contest in swashbuckling fashion.
