Irish greyhound Derby first-round draw

One of the highlights of the greyhound calendar is nearly upon us as heats for the Ladbrokes Irish Derby begin on Thursday at Shelbourne Park.

This year a total of 144 names went into the draw, with four reserves available for the first round.
The total number of entries means that the 24 heats will be divided over Thursday, Friday and Saturday night and will see four greyhounds qualify from each heat.
Which dog will claim Europe’s biggest prize of €120,000 and succeed 2009 winner College Causeway?
