Report. Better late although a bit sketchy.

Scouting for the first two trails and what with trying to keep the sheep back and holding on to my grandson, counting them was hard enough. Anyway I can say that it was a surprise to hear that Try Time didn’t ticket in the seniors as he crossed the last road with fifty yards lead, Bessy, Thorn Dancer were close up as was Lady and the Huntsmans ,as you can see from the result Try TIme was the only one missing.

In the maidens and once more a purple explosion and winning for the second time over the course was Yabadabbadoo , Westgate Rose was second and once more in third was So Be It. This time I was looking at back of the hounds as they crossed (no purple) but they had  Foxparke written all over them.

The pup trail looked to be a one dog race and so it proved as Jenny’s Aura came with a clear lead over Miterdale Rusty and popping up in fourth was Apollo ( one non winner trail left) splitting two more Foxparkes.

The open Restricted and the ‘red ‘un’ , Bewitched had a real tussle with Remember Me and Great Gable with the enigmatic Hunter’s Dale in fourth.

Everytime ‘ Jack’  Hunters is threatened with the ‘chop’ he decides to ‘go’. and a poignant second for Jeanette with Remember Me , for the time being the ‘ Me’ will be Les.

In the veterans and a return to the winners enclosure for Jacob , another red ‘un and sire of Bewitched, he won readily from Langdale Jack and made it a family day at the Show.
