Report.

The first of the season at Gamelsby and the sizeable patrons were rewarded with three exciting finishes.

Only four seniors ,quickly reduced to three as Arizona failed to negotiate the first turn and retuned on the outgoing trail. ( can’t win them all) that left Debra, who came with a nice lead, only to lose it to Endure  ,then get it back, and hold  it to the line, Prudence was back in third and was reported to have tender feet.

The pup trail and it was a non -winners-maiden and pup trail combined and finishing  fast from a group of seven was Alan Blacklock’s Del Boy,  ” I was keeping it for the non- winners on Sunday” so were the rest of them !

The open maidens went to Captain Jack who in a bunched finish held on from veteran Artisan, who led for most of the trail, and Step Up

Ps In reference to being accused of calling somebody “fat” , the reference to the young lady regarding her ability to hold a boisterous hound, with the words , it will not pull her over, was a light hearted comment and should be taken thus.

Report. Only nine seniors ,mind, there was a few more in the all- in, and it was first win of the season for Arizona who beat off the challenge of Jenny’s Delight,  after Prudence had led them a merry dance for most of the trail but dropped back to finish fourth, Queen and Buble ,first timers in the Lazonby senior rank were third and fifth and Russel was quoted as saying ‘Watch out next time’.

The pups had an untimely scale on the finish perhaps due to  the fact that somebody drove his car over the trail and spread it about .Not sure who it was but it was a Kia with a dint in the front.

The consensus of opinion is that the result was not affected as Overwater Stanley won handily from Provincial  and ‘Magician’. the first  five were well clear of the remainder.

The all-in was once again won by Thorn Fire, fourth of the season!nearly  four minutes faster than the pups- they finished bunched up and overheard was ‘ I thought I was fifth ‘ ” it doesn’t matter it’s an all-in , a £2 run.”

Summary of the first three meetings at Oulton, as seen from a scouts view.

The first three meets at Oulton and out of the eleven trails just one finish was seen but that doesn’t take away the excitement and the ‘crack’.

Endure showed his liking for the course with a treble and the former border hound Showtime showed his dislike , refusing at Raby, on all three occasions,. By the way the cur dogs don’t help, we ,once enticed them with a titbit and put them on leads.

Crazy won all three pup trails, unfortunately the first  one was overtime, not for the first time, but once they have had a ‘look’ things improved , just as well as it puts a lot of pressure on the scouts, hounds returning on a fast road on which some drivers take a great delight in trying to break the sound barrier.

It didn’t rain for the all-in on Sunday it absolutely threw it down just as the hounds were slipped, in five minutes there was an inch of water flowing down the road. David Studholme, who doesn’t like hi viz was seen putting on water-wings, can’t swim?

How many pups -24 . Chief scout Harry counts across the first road,all 24 of them in the road at the same time, 25 says Harry, Can’t be ? we will count them across the fields , confirmed 24 by two specialists ( Abacus) . A phone call confirmed 25 but the scouts on the second crossing were unaware, so a car is dispatched to inform the scouts of an extra runner (all in a days work).

At the ‘wood corner’ crossing there is no signal and all communication is by car, so down the road we go to inform the scout that we haven’t a clue where a number of hounds are but to stay there until ‘the cows come home’. That’s Dickie’s Sunday night church service on hold!

By the way the grass is long next to the trod going into the ‘last wood’ ask Keith Smith.

A stranger pulled up and said’ I’ve just seen a tall person walking across the moss ,He was yellow ,wearing an odd cap and carrying a bottle and pulling something, was I seeing things’. No! that was Phil , known locally as the ‘ Cockermouth Canary’

Poor Jazz Band , leads all the way and then comes to that last climb , he probably knows how Mallory felt,

I didn’t mention Grange Music winning the open maidens. living on the outskirts of the HTA, Graham Thornton from Millhead Carnforth has a long journey for most of the trails and a willing helper in the Westmorland Area deserves a  little bit of luck and also overdue a win was ‘Scrunt’ aka Bill with Sunset Ridge and not often in the winners enclosure ‘Kipper’ who’s Step Up did just that to win on Sunday.

And finally 142 hounds ran over the three meets and 24 of them were Foxparkes .

Report;  The sun might be shining , Easter is upon us, but the night up Low Place can be summed up by one sentence, ” The hair that you clipped off the hound last night can you stick it back on”, Yes! it was rather cold.

Seventeen seniors faced the starter, who was in the correct position, contrary to Bower House report which erroneously stated that she was not in position, if you going to get it wrong do it in style!!!.

On the long downhill finish, the Rosthwaite hound , Stanley and Carol Jackson’s Bewitched came from third to take up a winning lead which was dramatically reduced in the final strides by the local Miterdale Copper and kennelmate Miterdale Rusty, Washington was fourth , laughingly accused of not been called in by none other than Jim Bob, who , I might add, once shouted a hound home until he was blue in the face only to find out it wasn’t it!

The kennel cough is still rife, hence some small fields, only seven pups and an easy victory for Miterdale  Shadow , in second and showing promise the Langdale hound Hawkswood.

The third race and for some “the dreaded restricted” If you have a maiden and you win a restricted you no longer have a maiden! Ask Russell Dawson Who stayed at home only to take a call saying Paloma Faith finished well clear, won easily, three maidens gone!

Wendy was supposed to run in the seniors but decided against it.

If you want an input Russell, thou best turn up!

And to cap it all in second place was a second year veteran and in third Yorkshire Lad, who was a non- winner until October and by the way Low Place is one of the longest journeys for yours truly so it’s a long way from Settle for Mick and his pick-up.

Report. As most of the day was spent scouting , then all I can report on is what happened outside .

The conjecture of opinion was that as the hounds had run two trails previously at Kirkbride and this trail at Oulton ran part of that trail and that included the Kirkbride finish, problems arose! Then as the seniors scaled when approaching this area , putting paid to Prudence ‘s chances, how come the open maidens on reaching the same place , never faltered neither the all- in but the pups made a mess of things and consequently the three that completed the course , led by Crazy, were well over the time limit of 25 minutes.

It is not unusual for the pups to struggle on the first occasion and should have no problem on Thursday but what was afoot with the seniors ? well one can only surmise, the comparable times with last season put them about two minutes adrift, like most things we will blame the weather, whether or not. And thanks to those who helped to pick up the odd stray and watched the traffic.

And on a trying afternoon a little titter as the Chairman was seen crawling through a hole in the hedge and Caroline ass over tit in the roadside ditch, it got a laugh out of ‘Studdy’.

And the ‘ Rocker’ Geoff Duke ( for the oldtimers) was Graham Reid , reliving his youth!

Report: Grand National day at Bower House and with a grandson called Arthur , ‘ Come on my (grand) Son’.

Clipped out Miterdale Copper cut out the early pace but on the finish it was Try Again who showed in front and held on for his first win of the season and his progeny Huntsman’s Major won handily from Monday’s winner Crazy in the juniors with the Irish hound in third.  Just an observation here the entries were all in the same handwriting bar one,

The first non- winners of the season and in the winners enclosure , and not before time, the Wilding’s ( Town Crier) with their late bred senior ( unraced as a junior ) beat her sibling Miterdale Steele. Wild Gypsy finished fast to overhaul ‘ Steel’ and win going away .

And in the fastest race of the day the veteran Kerrymore belied her age and beat Bewitched with Overwater Jack in third.

Report.  Once again Endure drove every inch only to be mugged on the line by a rejuvenated Prudence who is now on the quest of her third championship, after her’ gap year’

A disappointing field of four for the pups and once again ,after overcoming a tumble on the finish, Nikita prevailed over the favourite Huntsman’s Magician by a couple of lenghts with an unclipped Red Will handy in third.

The All-in and ——- what can you say apart from the frivolity of one who shall remain nameless catching the wrong hound, similar coloured , but hers had balls this one hadn’t.

Report>

In the seniors the second  favourite beat the favourite , Try Time getting the better of kennelmate Try Again minus Jonty and Evie but left in the capable hands of Jack and Jake, Try Again made most of the running but in the end was five metres adrift, another clipped hound Explore was third and in fourth unclipped Miterdale Copper.

If you wanted a tip in the pups ,well! Jonty turned up, and in went Crazy ,fulfilling winter  promise , she just held the former chairman’s and his son-in-law’s Cuchulainn, I’ve nicknamed it ‘cuckoo lane’ but it’s pronounced Kahulin ( Culann’s Hound), Crazy was a six to one shot and was three minutes faster than Saturday’s event.

The last trail or not the last trail- what happened? well! a pup came back as the hounds were lined up ,causing confusion, the starter wasn’t in position when some hounds ‘got off’ , then some more went, Now, the correct procedure would have been to disqualify those hounds , remark the rest – but as there were no hounds left to mark, the whole lot were disqualified and the trail made void.

Just a note here- this was a restricted trail consisting of mainly maidens, which as you are aware if they win they lose their status-if ,by chance the expected winner a restricted hound by definition is one of those hounds that beat the flag  then the trail in reality becomes a maiden trail with restricted rules, therefore if you are slipping a maiden , what are your options?

The trail meeting with TWO different finishes.

Report. A pleasant afternoon’s sport plus the sighting of a young adder basking in the sun.

In the seniors only eight runners but it was an intriguing battle between Endure and Prudence, the latter a former double champion but starting this season as a maiden , prevailed by half a length with Debra and the full coated ‘Denzil’ close behind.

The pup trail and victory for the Simpson’s of Kendal with Nikita over Provincial and favourite Huntsman’s Magician, close up fourth was Artemis.

The open Maidens and a convincing win for the odds on favourite Paloma Faith with Venus and Artisan second and third , all of which are kennelled in Kendal as was the pup winner

Report.

Well! the season got underway with a bang, literally, when Denis Peare’s car exploded when the pups were finishing, the front suspension air-bag went of (don’t ask me) and numerous people ducked for cover , ‘ what the hell was that ?’.

The camera was in use for the first trail and then again for the maidens and it was also used in the pups , not for a photo but to find the second!

The seniors and which ‘Try’ would it be-Try Again cut out the early work but on the finish it was Try Time with a ten metre lead which he almost threw away and after a long consultation with the camera He was given the verdict by a short head over the fast finishing Jenny’s Delight.

In the pups and Miterdale Shadow won by the proverbial mile and the second was also well clear of the third and they were all the same colour!.

Sugar Ray started the season with a short head win over Miterdale Proper with Miterdale Steele a close up third, that put a smile on Lisa’s face but I can’t say the same for the owner (Grumpy).

Tommy’s Legacy held off Bewitched in the all-in and the field owner came after we’d left and planted a crop of seed potatoes.
