Report. A return to the Keswick area after a long break and a popular venue perched half way up Skiddaw behind Latrigg Fell affording views of the Keswick delta and surrounding fells, welcome to Latrigg Top.

Fourteen faced the starter for the senior hounds, being filmed for Japenese television ( I’ll let you know when its on) At halfway  one hound had a commanding lead ( a white one) but as they approached the long uphill drag to the line , Huntsman’s Jewel and Bedazzled came together closely attended by Ladybird, Jewel got up in the final strides to deny Bedazzled and Ladybird was a few yards back in third.

In the pups the favourite and championship leader Jenny’s Aura was unplaced and the spoils went to Kendal hound Buble, who finished well to beat Saturdays winner Kenmore with Overwater Hally in third and Yorkshire Lad  behind the judge for fourth.

The largest field of the evening for the maidens and Silverbelle from Lindale finished strongly to deny Meadow Josie with the remaining ticketing hounds close behind.

The final event and not as first printed ( writers blip) was a win for Kerrymore who came from behind the ‘red un’ Bewitched to win going away , Bewitched touched off Razzle Dazzle for third and veteran champion elect Artisan in fourth.

Report. A beautiful day in the Lorton Vale for the annual Loweswater Show and ,apart from the space between trails due to the pups running first, it was a pleasure to witness four excellent trails.

The pup trail run first and the Glenridding Pup Jenny’s Aura strengthened  her position at head of the table with an emphatic victory over Silver Dusk and Quiet Otter.

The pup maidens and following up Thursday’s non- winner success, ‘Popeye’

fairly legged down the final meadow to register a fine win over Summer Rose and  Kinniside Nell close up in third.

Finally the seniors and a first win of the season for Overwater Bessy who held off the challenge of Ladybird to win by a narrow margin. In the maidens ‘Kinniside Joe’ defied the pundits with this victory over Meadow Josie. according to Ian ‘ I’ll give you any price that he will win in a tight finish. The Foxparke stable came away from the meeting with seven tickets, Brian didn’t have to dance

Report Another Show and another wet day , a quiet day (ish) , and the beck on the finish had the final say in two of the trails.

In the seniors and after finishing last at Ennerdale Show on Wednesday , benefiting from a scale, Flawless finished alone today , much to the surprise of her owners who didn’t believe ‘Batty’ when told ‘she is on her own’. Then! who would believe ‘Jim Bob’.

In the pups and the ‘General ‘ came from third place , only to find he didn’t like ‘doggy paddle’ and forfeited the lead back to Kenmore and Huntsman’s Loyal, who had a great race to the line , Kenmore winning by a head.

The Maidens and a first strike for the Reid Kendal Stable   when Sparrowmire Angel came from third place to beat Grange Music and Mrs McGregor.

And in the last a surprise as Artisan failed to get a ticket , the spoils went to the easy winner Tinkerbelle who finished clear of Da Look.

Report. It hasn’t been a bad week weather wise , has it ? NO ! not until  you arrive at Fellside and get blown away, cold and nearly wet, not a pleasant night and not for the lone bookie either as the three ‘jollies’ duly obliged.

The first one and keeping up her championship challenge , ‘Marli’ who drove all the way in front of Jazz Band , whom Bracelet passed on the uphill finish to gain second.

The pups and four hounds descended together when reaching the uphill section to the tape, Jenny’s Aura struck the right trod and held on in an exiting finush to win from Buble and Sweet Harmony.

The last race and an overdue success for the Jonese’s Starlight , after being beaten by a short head on Monday, she won clear cut tonight from Menorah and Razzle Dazzle.

Report. We have had all types of weather on Cold Fell this season and today was no exception, the sun shone., making it a pleasant day.

In the seniors Galemire Grace ,under the watchful eye of part owner Ian Hunter,finished far to strong for Persian Bay, who had led on to the finish, and notched up win number eight keeping her in touch with the championship leaders.

The senior maidens and Les Tyson’s Lady Anne completed her quota for the season with a clear cut victory over Layla and Kinniside Joe.

The pups and course specialist Buble run of wins came to an end when Sweet Harmony overhauled her in the final ten metres, Manna was third and these three were well clear.

The puppy maidens and they came down the fell in one long line, where Jazz Lyric came clear, to deny the Holmes family a double, when Stand By was placed second.

The biggest field of the day saw another course specialist Mr Ant win with the smallest of margins from Starlight with Cartier in Third.,

Report. Grasmere Sports or Show held under the watchful eye of the ‘Lion and the Lamb’ or Helm Crag. The home of the Fell Derby , one of the prestigious events in the calendar, which most followers refuse to attend, why?  perhaps £6 is to expensive , well it should have been £7, some kind hearted person sponsored all to a £1 deduction.

And not without controversary as four hounds descended the fell together , across the main road and onto the sports field where Jenny’s Delight, held off the determined challenge of Overwater Bessy, winning by a head. The Judge, first and second catcher were unamimous in that the right  decision was given contrary to a photo taken from in front of the hounds.

The mornings trailing began with the pups and General James looked an all over certainty , but with a few yards to go dropped his nose allowing Yorkshire Lad to ‘go on’ but the ‘General ‘recovered and won by a head with Manna in third.

The Open Restricted and a minor shock as Remember Me , remember the International and the Dog Produce, put a miserable season behind him when holding off the challenge of Eden Rossi and Menorah. Well done Jeanette and Les, hound trailing stalwarts ,never complaining, well! only about each other, an example others should follow.

Then followed the ‘old timers’ who nearly went the wrong way at the start , you would have thought that they had never run here ,.– Da Look last years winner , once more showed his liking for Grasmere when beating Artisan and ‘Jacob’

Finally thanks to those who stopped behind to search for ‘Mickledore’.

Ps . We sometimes in this sport have to ‘face the music’ but I draw the line when you have to ‘face the book’ for trying to do the honest and right thing.

Once more Endure had to settle for second place beaten by a couple of lengths with Persian Bay an encouraging third.

In the pups and a minor upset when Cool Enough notched his first open victory of the season when he pounced in the final strides to deny Liz of her fourteenth victory and in the impending gloom the cows on the finish played a vital role in the result when they impeded the favourite Issabella and although Try Time was also impeded he escaped trouble and won comfortably., Issabella finishing only fourth.

Report.  After a weekend of cancellations it was glad to be ‘back on the road again’ at Calebreck , where Marli kept up her serious challenge for the senior championship with a clear cut victory , after she had disputed the lead with Galemire Grace for the majority of the trail. Persian Sky finished third ,a marked improvement with ‘Denzil’ in fourth.

The pups and restricted trails went to the ‘jollies’ making three on the night ,the same three as last time at the same venue. Both winners won handily , Jenny’s Aura was chased home by Sweet Harmony ,these two were well clear and Canny Girl had plenty to spare over Menorah and Mr Ant.
