The final Greyhound Trader sales of the year is upon us in the form of an Online Auction. A concept which has been hugely popular all year round, it is a source for numerous top class greyhounds including Scaglietti, Stonepark Syd, Lively Lauren, Antigua Eclipse, Savana Top Cat and many more!
This weekend, another 25 greyhounds will feature on the website for ongoing purchasers to bid on and as always here on the Greyhound Star we will provide a short preview on each available lot.
Able Partner
January 2022 son of Brett Lee and Droopys Smasher who demolished a field of 6 in Tralee on debut in 28.77. Ran to 28.90 the following week and looks another high class offspring of the dam who produced Irish Derby R/u Singalong Sally.
Allowdale Bart
Strong running November 2021 son of Broadstrand Bono who has been the bridesmaid on 5 occasions from 7. His most recent run was fast finishing 28.94 at Dundalk and previously he has clocked 30.03 (A0 time) over 550y at Limerick.
Ballymac Coby
Well-bred September 2022 son of Ballymac Vic and Ballymac Minton. Qualified at 13 months old in Tralee in 29.91. Half brother to Ballymac Whispa and Jaytee Craze who are both top performers in Ireland.
Ballymac Handbag
February 2021 sister to Ballymac Wild and Ballymac Bronze who has a best time of 28.96 SPK to name. Showed herself to be in good form going down a SH last time out at Enniscorthy and looks an ideal broodbitch prospect.
Ballymac Malibu
Unraced July 2022 bitch who is bred in the purple (Ballymac Cooper x Ballymac Arminta). Related to a long list of super greyhounds. Litter-sisters Ballymac Madgie and Ballymac Zari line up in the Bet365 Puppy Oaks this weekend in Towcester.
Ballymac Nero
Unraced July 2022 half-brother to Ballymac Katie and Ballymac Taylor. Hit the line strong when winning his qualifying trial at 13 months old in 29.57. Could be the one for those after a future 6-bend star.
Ballymac Tatum
Youngest on the catalogue at 13 months old. Qualified just a few weeks ago in 30.22 at Tralee. Member of a fast litter but one for the graded scene in the UK. Age on her side.
Ballymac Wolfe
Unraced September 2022 half-brother to De Lahdedah who qualified in Tralee in a promising 29.88. Weighing in at 81lb, this is a young dog who is open to any amount of improvement.
Carrigoon Thor
Lightly raced and consistent September 2021 son of Droopys Sydney who recorded a best time of 28.68 at Cork back in September. Weighing in at a huge 88lb last time out, this lad will be better suited to the big galloping tracks.
Deadly Style
AA0 greyhound who could be purchased with an eye on the 2024 English Greyhound Derby. Form such as 29.45 (550y LMK), 28.36 (CML) and 28.75 (KKY) put this greyhound up with the very best in Ireland. Won’t come cheap.
Easy Babe
Wide running April 2022 bitch who was a recent winner at SPK in 29.05. Trialled again this week at Lifford in a fast 17.69 on her card. Comes from the same kennel as Links Maverick.
Favouritism
Wide running May 2022 daughter of Droopys Sydney. Twice a winner at Clonmel in 29.18 and 29.21. Versatile bitch who will be capable of running anywhere from 450m-500m.
Global News
Unraced April 2022 pup who qualified in 29.07 at Clonmel when demolishing his trial opponent by 16 lengths. Out of a full-sister to Skywalker Logan and therefore half-sister to stud sensation Magical Bale. Well bred and could be the value pick of the sales.
Hutchinson
Recent race winner at Thurles in 29.05. Showed great early pace but also the stamina to make it home at such a tough venue. Eligible for most puppy competitions including the Monmore Puppy Derby.
Lookbackinanger
Smart 17.78 sprint trial at Lifford at the start of the week which caught the attention of many online. From the famed Sean Conway school of excellence, Lookbackinanger looks another Open Class prospect to come through his hands.
Move Forward
June 2022 winner on debut at Tralee over the sprint distance. Posted a smart 17.59 (S1) when winning by nearly 10 lengths. Should stay the 525 on breeding no bother and it is anyone’s guess how good this dog could be.
No Better Feelin
Unraced September 2022 son of Ballymac Cashout and Art Of Illusion. Qualified in a very fast 29.54 at just 13 months old. Looks set to be yet another superstar by Art Of Illusion who has previously thrown Online Auction sale phenomenon Lively Lauren.
Oakfield Storm
Unraced March 2022 bitch out of a sister to English St Leger champion Redzer Ardfert. She most recently recorded 28.87 at SPK when flying home and this lady will relish the 500m+ distances which the UK has to offer.
Rapido Siete
Bought from the Valley Sales back in August, Siete has shown rapid improvement since and has recorded a best time of 30.21 at Towcester. Bond paid for and no transport costs for this May 2022 bitch, you can’t go much further wrong.
Roanna Mason
March 2022 Ballymac Anton dog who most recently got the better of his litter brother Roanna Pilot by 4 lengths in 29.14 at Waterford just last week. Will be suited to 500m+ and is ready to race straight away.
Roanna Pilot
Litter brother to Roanna Mason above. This lad qualified unraced in Newbridge in a very fast 28.94 getting the better of Mason by 2 lengths. Comes from a decent litter and if anything to go by he will be better suited to the 500m venues in the UK.
Turn And Burn
Wide running debut winner at Clonmel in 29.06. Lost numerous lengths at the last bend and could have recorded a much improved time for experience. Showed great early pace and could be worth taking a chance on with the Monmore Puppy Derby in mind.
Uh Oh
November 2021 debut winner at Cork in 28.57. Ran wide throughout and showed brutal early pace. Looks destined for the Open Class scene in either Ireland or the UK.
Unanimous Ali
Unraced June 2022 daughter of Droopys Sydney who qualified in Cork in 29.56. Age on her side and looks an ideal bitch to work herself through the grades.
Waiting So Long
Unraced July 2022 daughter of Droopys Sydney who trialled at SPK last night in 19.34. A product of the Sean Conway school of excellence, this bitch will pay her way in the UK and arrive in tip-top ready to race condition.
