Report. Well what can you say , the mist comes down and with a bit of luck you find your way , unfortunately in this case it wasn’t to be and the two trailers who thought they were heading towards Ambleside were in fact heading towards Grasmere,, it one of those things , it isn’t the first time nor will it be the last!. But ! according to one or two they should have known were they were going obviously they have never walked on a fell with there eyes shut.
The three short trails went without a hitch and the large entry in the last trail was due to the mist.
In the Golden sovereign puppy trail , General James from Cleator Moor, the second favourite , fairly romped down the finish to a cheer that was heard in Ambleside, and in the process landed some hefty wagers. In second place some 30 yards adrift was Overwater Hally and a similar distance behind was the favourite Jenny’ s Aura.
The puppy maidens and another West Cumbrian raider Foxparke Fandando held off Ronnie’s Rascal in a bunched finish with only yards covering the first seven.
And in the restricted trail emerging out of the gloom ( not NIck but Flawless) who with Highness completed a 1-2 for the Troutbeck kennel this put a shine on what has been a lean season for the Wilsons and the biggest smile was Tia’s.
