Report ( Third Attempt ) Against the backdrop of Kirk Fell, Lingmell, Great Gable , Wasdale show once more played host to people from all over the country , enjoying the unseasonal weather and the numerous attractions ,including four trails giving the spectators excellent views as the hounds negotiated the surrounding fells.
In the senior trail Overwater Bessy stole a march on the field on the approach to the finish and won readily from Thorn Dancer and Marlou , who has recovered well from her mishap earlier in the season.
The rest of the afternoon belonged to the Napiers as out of ten runners they had six tickets including the first three in the senior maidens and the first two in the puppy maidens. Foxparke Turbo set the ball rolling with a hard fought battle with kennel mate “So Be It “, winning by a head. “Rosie Lee” completed the double with a behind the judge victory over Kinniside Nell, who was disqualified for interference, promoting ” Homeward Dude” to second place .
The pup trail and Miterdale Rusty put his previous course experience to good use and held off the strong challenge of Sweet Harmony with Jenny’;s Aura leading in the pack, after making several mistakes, together with “the General”.
