EPISODE 71: TOM O'CONNOR

Barry Drake

This week, Barry Drake is joined by Tom Pa O'Connor from Kerry.

Tom is well known among the greyhound community, a very popular trainer for many years. His son Patrick has since taken over training with the family's Saleen prefix making their mark over the years.

In recent days, Tom's name has been shared far and wide across social media as he has launched a great fundraiser for 3 cancer charities in Munster. Tom has organised the fundraiser as a way of thanking those who do such tremendous work with cancer patients, as he continues his own treatment for bladder cancer.

Of course, there's some great greyhound chat and memories to share to. Have a listen and of course if you can, you can donate to the 3 charities on https://bit.ly/3Edl25z
