REPORT. It was getting dark, a gloomy night , one trail to come and all the way from Cleator came Veteran Night  Vision, a car full of supporters, and named for the occasion but , alas . he aspired to no better than third,still a four pointer , better than nowt and what more a journey through the lakes to a delightful venue overlooking Windermere and in the distance the lights of Morecambe, that ‘s for those who stayed behind for the sing song led by chairman Baz, ” Two wheels on my wagon and I’m just rolling along”

The seniors and a change of trail led to a right mix up on the homeward turn, hounds were going in all directions heads up, no signposts , but it is intriguing how they all ended up on the finish. Marlou beating Lady Anne and Miterdale Shadow.

Now it was no secret that the pup trail was going to take part over much of the locals practice ground and like the seniors would they guess, As it happens none of them had run the last section but had spent all winter learning their trade on various sections of the trail . the answer they never put a foot wrong and finished 123, ahead of the unfortunate Huntsman’s Pair who lost ground at the start.

Super Sun not Super Stition that’s us on 13.

A note the road may have been resurfaced and the temptation to go a little faster might be there but that rock just before the entrance would stop a tank and it did!

Report. Grasmere Sports incorporating the Fell Derby ( according to Grasmere Sports ) attracting only 7 runners nevertheless providing an exciting finish between Jenny’s Delight and Bedazzled the former beating the veteran by a length, Nothing was seen of the race as the mist had shrouded the fells but the crowd got its £12 worth of excitement in the opening event one hour before the sports opened when everybody’s Best Mate stopped hallway across the arena and then turned around and headed back up the trail, no amount of shouting or in my case blasphemy could persuade him  to finish and as he messed about his brother Benny aka Cuckoo Lane and Huntsman’s Novice “flew” past to notch the first two places,.

The restricted trail provided an exciting finish and a one two for the Glenridding kennel with Jenny’s Breeze and Huntsman’s Jenny,

And in the veterans Capetown held off the challenge of Night Vision.

A wet , miserable day and the public were still going onto the field as the trailing fraternity were going home but still to come was the wrestling and the Senior Guides Race where there was a £500 inducement for the first person to break Fred Reeves long standing record of 1978, and you couldn’t see halfway up the fell !!

Report. A mist shrouded fellside greeted the hounds at Fellside, visibility for the seniors was 50 metres and out of the gloom came Jenny’s Aura with Galemire Grace 10 seconds behind and a similar distance to the third and fourth. On the plus side was the tracking device used by the finishing end trailer without which he couldn’t find his way to Cockermouth council chambers.. The mist cleared somewhat for the remaining trails and in the pups Huntsman’s Nimrod and New Agenda came with a good lead. Having watched the finish from afar in the next three trails it is with a certain amount of guesswork how and what happened. but, ! Meadow Dixie narrowly beat Bedazzled , Paloma Faith came from behind to beat Jenny’s and Annabella?. What I can say if all is correct the maidens and restricted were exactly the same time

Report . The times of the three races reflected the conditions between today and sports day, much more amenable and a welcome shower now and then.

Only six in the first but nevertheless an intriguing contest develop, appearing from behind the trees to a gasp from the appreciative audience came four hounds within 20 yards and Jenny’s Delight won three lengths.

In the pups Cuckoo Lane continued his good run of form but he was helped when Huntsman’s Novice put a circle in before crossing the lane putting paid to his chance of victory, the favourite Huntsman’s Nimrod was third and Overwater Seth unplaced. Just a mention here , it is not often that “Greenie” gets a ticket nevermind two in one race .

The Huntsman’s were in charge in the last  when taking first and second  with two Jenny’s and Jenny turned up to make three.
