Coolavanny Hoffa is the favourite for the semi-final of the Irish Greyhound Derby. Crafty Kokoro is next best bet. Callaway Pro Am is up against Crypto Punk. Born Warrior showed exceptional early speed last week in the quarter finals.

Ballymac Finn is the favourite for the second semi-final of the Irish Greyhound Derby. Maries Wedding ran her best run of heats at the weekend. The weather forecast is not good.
