A Millstreet dog goes in search of prestigious honours in Clonmel next week in the participation of Cleanaway Smurf in the Hotel Minella National Greyhound Oaks. Under the watchful eye of Con O'Connor from Ballydaly, Smurf has impressed in her performances this season and is considered as amongst the leading contenders for outright honours and the €35,000 prizemoney. A winner in the pre-qualifying stakes at South Clare, Cleanaway Smurf performed the business though Clonmel is very much the mecca for all coursing enthusiasts with the action sure to be hugely competitive come next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
