Report .Lorton hound show , one of the few venues where the shorter trails are run first or to put it another way a five trail meeting where the public watch the first four trails in a two hour session and then, rather than wait for the seniors , go home.. Well, Babylon made it a double on the day for Ed and lisa, can’t report on the race because like a lot of others we had gone home.
The day got underway with the pups and Acorn surrendered a winning lead allowing Opal to get up on the line to force a dead – Heat, Mick from Kinniside was a close third.
following on were the pup maidens and finally Eden Raya got her head in front on the line ,, this time it was Dan of Kinniside was second . The maidens came into the last field ,well bunched, some went left , some right, some circled, there was plenty of post-mortems but nobody had really died.
Onto the open maidens , but as the pups had run in their own race it was a short senior maiden and once again many hounds had a winning chance entering the last field, Zola ( shoeless ) held on to beat Super star and blue bolt.
The restricted trail was disappointing when most of the runners returned to the start after ten minutes but five made it including Foxparke Jewel who was one of fifteen runners for the Napiers.
