What is all the fuss about, then?

Last weekend, Droopys Kathleen broke the clock at Shelbourne Park, recording a record time of just 27.58 seconds to run 525 yards in the Puppy Oaks, and she was coasting alone at an average speed of 38mph, recording a winning distance of 12-and-a-half lengths, which is just staggering.

Even though she was below her best in the The Gourmet Island Puppy Oaks 525 Final at Shelbourne Park on Saturday night just gone, she still clocked a time of 28.05 and was three lengths clear of the second, Unanimous Roxy, who tried her very best but was no match for her once they turned the final bend for home.

McMonagle is still a very young jockey and the globetrotter has earned a fortune already in his short career. His 18-month-old greyhound is probably just a hobby on the side but what a hobby it is turning out to be, as he could own one of the best dogs that has ever graced a track.
