Report.

Newlands ,one of the most picturesque trails in the hound trailing calendar, a hidden valley, a little gem. Also well signed !

Twelve hounds took there chance in the seniors and Langdale Ranger took an early lead and his only danger was the clock and as you can see from the result he had sixteen seconds to spare . This was his second win this week and third this season and he becomes a leading contender for Saturdays International.

The senior maidens followed on and ran it nearly as quick as the seniors and leading them home was Shirley’s dad Tommy ,AKA Tommy’s Legacy in front of Huntsmans Jewel and My Way.

The junior trail and after a few minor scales it was left to the Produce winner Thorn Dancer to scoot down the final downhill stretch to deny her maiden sister Marlou  a win ( still a maiden ). The Patterdale pair of Jenny’s Delight and Kracka were third and fourth, once more finishing together. Perhaps first and second on Saturday.

On to the last and as I was on a retrieval mission I missed it but as the saying goes ‘There’s life in the old dog yet’ Could the Veterans go Taggets way on Saturday.

Just looking at tonights results : Four winners for Saturday !.
