Anna Geary favourite for Rose of Tralee

August 18, 2014

GAA legends Seán Óg Ó hAilpín and Anna Geary launch Focus Ireland's 'Four Peaks Challenge'
Cork camogie captain Anna Geary is the bookies' favourite to win the Rose of Tralee, which gets underway tonight.

The Cork Rose's odds have been slashed to 7/2, with Carlow's Miriam Smyth and Philadelphia's Maria Walsh hot on her heels at 4/1.

Anna, who is also chasing All-Ireland camogie glory, is hoping to highlight all aspects of her personality when she takes to the stage for the contest, which has traditionally been one of RTE's most-watched TV programmes.

"There have been some videos of me on YouTube doing some free style camogie in heels, but sport is just one part of my life," the Milford beauty said.

"I'd like to be able to get across as much of my personality as possible rather than just discuss my sporting background."
