There has never been a dog running at the Kingdom Greyhound Stadium that has achieved this in the past and to do so winning the Lee Strand 550 would be a super achievement.

This however is not going to prove easy as there is top class opposition in the likes of the Waterford owned Droopys Miriam, Realism owned by the O'Rahilly family in Ballymacelligott and Dromulton Pilot trained in Tralee by Pat McMahon and owned in Currow by Paudie Breen.

The first of an all sponsored Lee Strand 12 race program (racing behind closed doors as per current Covid-19 protocols) starts at 7.30pm and Radio Kerry's Alan Finn will broadcast live from the venue from 8 to 10 pm with live commentary of the Final at 9.20.
