It's a Question of Sport for Drumcove Lad

Well we had some day yesterday as Steve Masters had the responsibility yesterday of taking Drumcove Lad on the set of the BBC's Question Of Sport.

The BBC asked me if Drumcove Lad could appear on the show as a mystery guest. I obviously jumped at the chance as this is great publicity for the kennel and also for greyhound racing as a whole.

The only other live animal to appear on this great sport quiz was the great late Red Rum. This popular sports quiz is shown all over the world by millions on people.

It was a great honour to have the dog I train as the first greyhound ever to appear on the show.

Matt Dawson the star of the show was blind folded and had to Name the Sport when running his hands over Drumcove lad.

We won't spoil it and tell you what he said! Sue Barker announced once the blind fold was removed  "Drumcove Lad, 2011 Sprinter of the year, trained by Chris Allsopp."

The owners of Drumcove Lad are James Edwards 50% share, Will Adamson 25% and Matt Garnett 25%. They were all over the moon with their dog getting on the show and will all receive 

some mementos of this fantastic day.
