A strong start for International Greyhound Services at Star Pelaw
Nathan Corden of International Greyhound Services was in a buoyant mood when reflecting on the company’s first sale at Star Pelaw saying “From start to finish the day was a huge success. Everything went like clockwork allowing us to start trials on time and even finish the day early! The Star Pelaw staff were first class and our thanks go to Dave Gray, Kim Sanzone and all the team there. There was a very healthy crowd attending and this made for a strong auction with a total turnover of £64,950.”
Top lot on the day was Droopys Playgirl (a January 24 repeat mating to Droopys Kathleen) and she was sold for £7100 and will join Ricky Holloway’s kennels. Fastest on the day was the 26.05 recorded by Return Package who was sold to Savva Roberts for £3000.
Corden continued “Speaking to Kim (Sanzone) afterwards, she was delighted that a large percentage of the greyhounds sold today are joining the ranks of the Star Pelaw graded strength. In total we sold 39 of the 40 lots and we will certainly look forward to putting Star Pelaw into the 2026 schedule.”
