Report.Two kennel doubles at Mirkholme on Saturday, Bedazzled and Cherish for the Jackson’s of Rosthwaite and from O’erwater came Stanley and Hally. On the steepest downhill finish in the hound trailing calendar and two obstacles at the bottom to contend with it is a true test for any hound. In the seniors four hounds were in contention at the top but Bedazzled came away although Persian Bay made ground on the run in , the first favourite of the day duly obliged.

Similarly in the maidens ,the ‘drop’ sorted them out and although Night Vision looked an assured winner ,Manna finished with purpose and only failed by a head to win.

Overwater Stanley followed up his mid-week win over the improving Hi -Mac and completing the double was Overwater Hally in the All-In.

Just six in the veterans , Cherish and TwoTone  were neck and neck on the downhill section but an awkward jump put paid to Two Tone’s chances and Cherish completed a favourite four-timer.
