I was just talking to ownerwho had been trying to nurse him through a few injuries so he could have one more crack at the Irish Derby.
Unfortunately, he sustained an injury last Saturday night at the first bend and his vet has recommended retirement from racing as a serious injury was imminent.
He is dropping him to Michael Dunne's and he will be available for natural matings.
Michael is also in the process if preparing vials for export to Australia.
I wish the owners and dog best of luck in his breeding career. His first offspring are August 2013, so we may see his first runners around the new year.

He has the potential to be the next Premier Fantasy, if not better.

Taken from Talking Dogs The flying Paradise Madison has run his last race and he will now commence full-time stud duties with Michael Dunne at the Frightful Flash Kennels in Portlaoise.
He finishes his racing record with an extremely impressive portfolio as the fastest greyhound ever over 525 yards in Ireland, a feat he achieved when clocking an absolutely sensational 27.67 in December 2012. Injury prevented this dog from challenging seriously for major honours but he did manage to win the 2013 Townviewfoods.com Champion Stakes. Coincidentally, he finished his racing career in the same competition last Saturday when he finished down the field in the second semi-final behind Vimmerby. He was found to be lame after that race and Dave Buckley decided to cry halt on his racing career. He has a number of litters on the ground, of course, and his first litter will be twelve months old next month. Buckley confirmed the retirement yesterday when he said, He has a lot of pups coming along. He has been very popular with breeders and it he can one like himself then we will be happy. In his interrupted career Paradise Madison, a son of Head Bound and Paradise Alanna which was bred by Sean Meade, ran just 27 races and among his times were 27.67sec, 27.92sec and 27.96sec for 525 yards, 29.37sec and 29.46sec for the 550 trip and 30.94sec for the 575 distance.
Just spoke to owner, paperwork for export of vials to Australia is being done at the moment. He will let me know where and when the vials will be available and I will post here as soon as I know.
I think he has had 60 matings already in Ireland during the last year while still racing and he got some really top broods.
