Record-breaker Setanta now 11/4 for Curraheen Irish Laurels glory

BALLYMAC SETANTA is best at 11/4 for the 2026 Bar 1 Betting Irish Greyhound Laurels after his brilliant track record performance in the opening round of the €30,000 Classic over Curraheen Park's 525 yards course last Saturday.

Liam Dowling's star, who had been unbeaten over four bends until finishing fifth behind Magical On Fire in last year's Irish Laurels final, was stretching his current winning sequence to five when clocking 27.75sec to take six spots off the track record he had previously shared with Illnotbeback.

The remainder of the 'Derby Of The South' can be seen live on sisracing.tv with Ballymac Setanta going in heat two of the second round on Saturday.
