So so sorry for you Anth.
I passed comment to Mark about how she walked beside you when you went over to Peter's caravan and never left your side, so mature for a young pup, obviously a very strong bond there between the two of you. She was a bitch with huge potential and it's such a shame...
Judges should have good vision and a backbone, regardless of whether there's a halfway judge or not.
I've said this a million times, if a dog deliberately turns it's head on another dog in the race then it should automatically be disqualified whether it won or lost. The reason being so that...
The race night was topped off with the auction race where money was getting thrown about like it was going out of fashion, some people even bidding against themselves. Big Anth and Stuart both the highest bidders of the night paying £50 for each of their dogs along with other winning bids from...
Some more pic’s to show the brilliant atmosphere in the club and what a fab time everyone had win, lose or draw, i think Jacqui captured the evening's entertainment perfectly in these pictures.
Racers packed the big room in the club for the race night and what a fantastic atmosphere, the compere got everyone involved, with everyone cheering on their runners.
Everyone dug in their pockets for a chance to win the £100 football card, the last few being sold in the club and the...
Caravans started arriving on Thursday night with more landing Friday afternoon onwards. Over those two days we had some heavy rain, unfortunately we couldn’t risk vans going onto the football pitches and churning them up and people thankfully respected that by staying on the borders and some...
That's right, it is up to Chris & Paul where and when they hold the Derby. However if an organiser values the support of whippet racers then they need to make it desirable to everybody. There were just short of 200 dogs at the NNWRF Straight Champs and 1 week later the MAJORITY of those dogs...
They'll be on tomorrow. I'm in the middle of doing a report and Jacqui's going to send the pic's of the entertainment and then she'll post the racing & presentation.
Just a quickie pic of some of the prizes.
Will put a proper post on in the morning with the results as i'm sure to forget something but thankyou to you all!
Winners were fantastic all weekend, one race though that will stay with me for a long time is the three way dead head, absolutely...
Totally agree, another year of poor attendances surely shows you that the Derby which was one of the most prestigious events in the calendar needs a bloody good shake up.
The fact this years venue was in an idylic location was obviously not enough of an attraction for a lot of people, not only...

Traps are 34" long x 10" wide, Lin's measurements must be for kickboard. The trap floors are rubber and there's loads of extra rubber flooring too should it be needed.
Yes Elise / Judith, we'll have trials in a break :thumbsup:
Just left the track now 4/5 caravans here already :thumbsup:
Track marked and fenced off, if anyone turns up and the barrier is closed porky and lisa have the key.
see you tomorrow for a drink in the club :thumbsup:
good luck and safe racing to everybody :luck:
if you need to ring for...
I can never understand why pedigree racing on greyhound tracks has never taken off. They are surely safer that running on grass bends by being prepared by experienced groundsmen and cambered to assist the dogs in cornering the bend, are much easier to maintain during hot summer (ha) months...
