RONANS ROCKET

Stop Press: RONANS ROCKET sold for a nice 4 figure sum to a UK buyer, without any form of advertising at all.

Ronans Rocket goes from Trap 4 in the Pre-hung Doors Direct A2 Puppy 525yds Semi-final at Limerick tonight. This young dog has blistering sectional times of 4.92 and 4.94 in his previous 2 heats of this 48 dog Stake. He is now staying better, so its good luck to his owner / trainer, 13 year old Ronan O'Donavan tonight, and there will be a big following coming down from Thurles to give both the dog and Ronan some vocal support. For the first time in his life "The Rocket " missed his break. His nose was at the top of the gate when it opened, and he seemed a little suprised when the lids went up. However, he managed to get back into contention at the third bend, but his rear legs were dragged back by the 5 dog, effectively finishing his race. Hard luck Ronan, but there will be another winning race for this young dog before too long.
