Life of Bryan

Young Upper Beaconsfield breeder-owner-trainer Bryan Sykes, 25, has found his ‘path in life’ – greyhound racing.

Late last year, Sykes gave up his job as a financial analyst for the Reece Group – Australia’s largest plumbing and bathroom supplies business – to concentrate on full-time training.

“It (Reece) wasn’t working for me, so I thought I’d take a ‘sabbatical’,” Sykes said.

Subsequently he was unearthed as an amazing ‘grassroots’ success story during the inaugural ‘Pink Diamond’ series.

Sykes took out last week’s Pink Diamond Veterans final (425m) at Bendigo with Ides Of Jebrynah ($11.00), collecting a $12,500 first prize and $1875 breeder bonus.
