Proper Heiress into the BOYLE Sports Irish Greyhound Derby final 

Cheap Sandwiches produced a flying 29.14 run to win by over twelve lengths in the first semi-final of the BOYLE Sports Irish Greyhound Derby with Oreo Ollie in second and Barefoot On Song in third. Cheap Sandwiches was ultra-impressive, and he will take all the beating in the final from T5. Sponsors BOYLE Sports go 8/15 about the Graham Holland-trained runner.

The story of the night followed with the Mark Wallis-trained multiple Category One winner Proper Heiress qualifying for the final following the disqualification of Oreo Ollie. It was further good news for the MWD Partnership owned runner, with the September 2022 son of Droopys Sydney getting T1 in the final. 

The second semi-final of the BOYLE Sports Irish Greyhound Derby went to Glengar Silent from T5 in 29.26. The Pat Buckley-trained runner turned handy and hit the front at the third bend and powered clear. Droopys Deploy took second with race leader Magical Mag finishing third.
