We have all the latest Easter Cup betting odds for you in one of the biggest events in the greyhound racing calendar.

Ballymac Finn Odds Cut

Support has started to arrive for Ballymac Finn to be crowned the 2023 Easter Cup champion after a terrific display in the opening round at Shelbourne Park on Saturday night.

The 2022 BoyleSports Irish Greyhound Derby runner-up has been clipped into 6/1 from 10/1 following his 29.66 victory in heat six where he beat the Pat Buckley trained Stream Of Sydney by two lengths. Trained by Kerry man Liam Dowling, this son of Droopys Sydney – Ballymac Petsy was last seen when running up the Eric Browne Memorial Kingdom Derby final at Tralee in January and has proved that he can go well fresh.

Swords Rex – Easter Cup Favourite

Swords Rex remains the frontrunner in the betting and is unchanged at 7/2 after finishing second to his kennelmate Galloping Sydney, who ran the race of his life. Sydney was fast away from a tricky draw in trap five, but the orange jacket didn’t pose any problems for him as he skipped home in 29.78, keeping the ante post favourite Swords Rex three lengths away come the finish. His odds have been cut into 8/1 from 12/1 to win the €25,000 prize.

Other heat winners on the night included Storys Cashout (25/1 from 40/1) and Allforthebest (33/1 from 40/1). Bockos Crystal (10/1) and Callaway Pro Am (9/2) justified their short odds to win their respective heats but remain unchanged in the betting.

RPGTV Irish Cesarewitch Betting

BoyleSports are unable to split Magical Mary and Bobsleigh Dream in the final of the RPGTV Irish Cesarewitch. Both ladies are in brilliant form and are priced at 6/4 to win the €6,000 pot. Magical Mary won this title last year for her trainer Patrick Guilfoyle but the Pat Buckley trained Bobsleigh Dream got the better of her on Sunday evening in their semi-final clash in a time of 32.34.

Sarah Kinsella, spokesperson for BoyleSports said:

“The greyhound racing scene has been extremely busy but it’s about to get even busier with the second round of the Easter Cup and the Irish Cesarewitch final to look forward to this weekend.

“Winners of both will no doubt attract interest to win our sponsored Irish Greyhound Derby that kicks off in August so it’s worth keeping a close eye on the results.”
