Leeview 791 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Rupert and John - Family are nice folk. They love running dogs and were big coursing enthusiasts pre ban. There dogs are heavily greyhound blooded with a dash of Deerhound alwayfrom working-coursing stock. A real genuine family right through Y.I.S Leeview Quote Link to post

Big bald beautiful 1,231 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 I used to enjoy the greyhound coursing meet they had on the flinty tops, Sherborn . it was october if i remember rightly.they often struggled to get good dogs there as it was early and folk didnt want to risk runningthere best dogs.

Leeview 791 Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 One of the best meetings of the year was Sherborn Farmers. In latter Years they came down off the flinty tops and the land was great,kept right and well keepered all year round. Loads of hares and thick and fast great coursing. Usually wrapped up by 1pm then off to the local pub. Great days and memories. What id do for them to be brought back. Your memory's going Max we started at 9.30 on the dot 3x8dog stakes lunch at 11.00am then ran 3 finals and in the East Riding for 11.45 but you were n't driving that day. BBB John was in a totally different league to aa was slipping a long time before he was persuaded to go for it,proud to say I got him his first slip in public so to speak and got him pushed forward when others were nt clear about the rules The meetings on the tops could be good or poor from year to year,never publicised but always a good turnout of people you only saw at Sherburn once a year Y.I.S Leeview Quote Link to post

Remember Rupert winning at a Ryedale meeting and Mrs Hall telling him to put the dog away and look after it,Rupert told her he could nt as John will be lamping it tonight and missus will have it out ferreting with grandkids in the morning Y.I.S Leeview Quote Link to post
