And thrice more
Delightful Song is tearing through the grades winning A8 by over 12L and on Friday it was A6 by 5 3/4L in 29.09...on you go son!
On Saturday, Pointless Paloma made it Monmore win No4 when skipping away by 2 1/2L in S2 grade to stop the clock in 38.84.
Most impressive debut of recent times has to go to Hidden Laura, debuting in a tough A2 the May 16' daughter of Confident Rankin gave them a running lesson eventually crossing the line 3 1/2L to the good in a speedy 28.51....put her in your notebooks people!!
An extension to 2017?
Three winners to celebrate on Thursday. Amazingly Crocketts Moment hasn't won since his debut 14 races ago back in July but the son of Sparta Maestro doubled his tally with a 28.66 win in A3.
Standbye Athena is enjoying an Indian Summer to her career and made it three wins from her last five starts (all at married man prices too!) when proving too strong for her rivals again in A5 clocking 29.15.
The treble was brought up by debutante Proud Tyrur, the son of Tyrur Big Mike was too strong in the finish and won by 1/4L in 29.05...a very decent effort by the Feb pup and it augurs well for his future at the Green for sure.

Festive Round Up
Just a few winners to get the house in order as we approach the new year.
On Thursday Standbye Athena rewarded her faithful followers with a 6/1 victory in A5, she won by 3/4L in 29.24.
Friday saw Ferneys Signora lead all the way in A5 to win by 2 1/2L in 29.20. Also on the same card, Whiskey Jaydee beat our own Ballycahane Girl by a neck in S3 grade to record 38.88.
On Saturday the kennel notched a double by the way of Cuckoo Martina and Shovel It On. Martina won the A7 in 29.36, she hit the rail on debut but the ease in class bought about an improved second effort. Shovel it On also was having her second ever race, the daughter of Pots and Pans scored by 3/4L in A10 despite early crowding.
Today's Boxing Day meeting again threw up two winners. Dance Leyla has gone from A7 to now A4 winner in a short space of time, 28.95 was her time for an easy 2 1/2L win.
Finally it was good ol' Head Iton Murph who raised a cheer, the classy sort led at the second and put the rest to the sword, eventually crossing the line fully 7L to the good in S1, 37.93 was his time.

Merry Christmas
Treble!
Faletau who was named after the Wales and Bath Rugby star Toby Faletau blitzed the opposition in A9 class, the August 2016 son of good old Pots and Pans careered away to win by 6L 29.25.
Toby Faletau |
Slaneyside Angel continues her slow but steady progress up the Monmore Grades, starting in A10 she has now progressed to winning A6 last night and recorded a P.B of 29.34 in the process.
Faletau, Ballycahane Girl and Slaneyside Angel |
Double!
In the very next race Santas Ace, pretty much a standing dish in A3 did the business once more when leading at the 4th bend to win by 1/2L in 28.55.
Friday, 15 December 2017
Owners Xmas Party
A quick reminder that its Owners Day Christmas Party this Sunday at 9.30am at kennels
What an end to the year!
Dance Layla continues her improvement, after adjusting to A5 she too found her feet last night and won well in 29.08.
It was not hard to fancy La Hacha in the Owners Bonus Series Final (pictured) and once he got his head in front he fairly ran away with the event, eventually winning by 6 1/4L in 29.11.

Chicken Dinners all round
We have a few winners to catch up on.
On Wednesday we saw Dance Vogue show great determination to defy the double upgrade and get back up on the line to win A5 class in 29.17. On the same card Manilla Slippy easily recorded a double (like Dance Vogue) in the 4 dog A6 by 4L in 29.06.
We bagged another double on Thursday courtesy of La Estrella and La Hacha.
Estrella was too good for A8 when keeping a wide path and taking it up off the third to run out a cos 29.40 winner.
La Hacha made it 2 from 2 when winning by the minimum margin in his heat of the A7 Owners Bonus Series and has every chance of making it 3 from 3 next time out in the final.
It was a treble winner day on Fridays afternoon BAGS card mostly in driving snow!
First up was Fernisky Dusky, the son of Zero Ten is rapidly improving, impressive last week in A5 he was even more so here in A3, eventually winning by 4 3/4L in 28.64...loads more to come.
Cee Jay Kickham, an 8/1 winner on debut in A6 back in October, took the A3 in good style despite early crowding, clocking 28.98.
Our third winner on the card came in the shape of Head Iton Vikki, stepping back up to six bends the daughter of Droopys Jet fairly routed the opposition when winning by 5 1/4L, this despite not leading until bend 6!.

Five Alive
A fantastic five winners at Monmore this afternoon.
In order of appearance, La Rosa made it career win number three from just twelve starts when powering through to win A8 as she liked in 29.64.
Smokestack Levi was next up to the plate, the black son of Vans Escalade led all the way in S2 class for a 5 1/4L romp in 38.76.
Slaneyside Goldi pretty much did everything wrong on her debut but she is clearly a quick learner as despite upped in grade to A6, she was foot perfect in despatching the opposition with the minimum of fuss in 29.31.
Delightful Song has had a couple of sighters at Monmore in A7 after arriving from Peterborough. The drop to A8 was greatfully taken as he avoided carnage at the first corner to win as he liked by over 12L in 29.52
Last but not least we had Chamberlain Zara victorious in S1, the super consistent bitch won by nearly 2L in 38.64
Friday, 1 December 2017
That Friday feeling
Wednesday we saw a tasty double courtesy of good old Jaffer, he kept a wide course as usual and ran out a comfortable 1L winner in 28.66 A2.
Slaneyside Angel made it three wins from only nine races when routing them by 3L in 29.30. The daughter of Razldazl George is progressing nicely from A10 to now A6.
Today the kennel recorded a treble on this afternoons BAGS card.
First up was Dance Vogue, after an inauspicious debut where she was KO'd, the daughter of Ballymac Vic made amends at the third time of asking when winning A7 by 1 3/4L in 29.20
Coolagown Blush is becoming a force to be reckoned with now over the 630m as she has now won three out of her last four races, two weeks ago an Open and today the S1 in 38.78.
Last but not least was debutante La Hacha. He kicked off his career in A8 and it proved no problem as he soon led to win easily by 4 1/4L in 29.34, plenty more to come from the son of Farloe Blitz i'm sure.
Monday, 27 November 2017
Double Double
Copper Maverick won last week in A5 and did the business in A4 this time, the winning distance of 3 1/2L was no fluke as the son of Paradise Madison had to shrug off early crowding before stretching away in 28.82.
Gunga Din got in even more trouble when missing the kick and being crowded but it shows that he too is improving quickly with a 3L success in A7 in 28.20.
Thursday, 23 November 2017
Flying without wings!
After getting injured back in June, the super classy Roys Boy was on the comeback trail and it was only a matter of time in A4 as he was A1. 6/4 said today was the day and so it proved as the son of Droopys Scolari made no mistake by winning in 28.96.
Next on the rostrum was the Belle Vue recruit Copper Maverick, one troubled sighter in A5 was all the nippy Paradise Madison fella needed to find his feet..and how..28.88, Bosh!
Next up was Lahana Ace, only out of the first three once in nine races to date, upped to A5 without winning then upped to A4 without winning too, some say that is harsh but it didn't stop the son of Ace Hi Rumble scoring by 3 3/4L in 29.05!
The kennel reeled off the next two races on the card courtesy of Cee Jay Kickham and Gunga Din.
CJ appreciated the drop to A5 when staying out wide to win by a head in 28.96. Gunga Din recorded her first Monmore win since arriving from Peterborough when proving too strong for A8 class for a 29.44 gold.
Two more winners followed on Wednesday's BAGS card in the shape of Manilla Slippy and the evergreen Standbye Athena.
After losing his way from a debut A4, Manilla Slippy had 'slipped' to A8 and came second, clearly the grader has mystical powers as he was put up a grade for his troubles but duly obliged in A7 to record a P.B of 29.43.
Athena, a recent edition to the '100 club' showed she is no back number when ripping up an A7 in a new recent P.B of 29.07!
To say the squad is flying is an understatement....go team West View!

Teeny
We're flying without wings!
First up was Santas Ace in A3, the black son of Ace Hi Rumble led at the first to win well in 28.69.
Coolagown Blush took the step up into Open class in her stride when proving too classy for her rivals over 630m, winning easily in 38.56.
We also won the 480m Open with Moanteen Archie, he looked to be going places after that A2 romp and so it proved here.An early paced demolition to win in 28.51.
Finally on the card, classy new recruit Dainty Hunter quickly put the A5 to bed with 29.18 despite crowding and can climb higher for sure.

On the same card, Staff Rebel made it win number three from his last six races when collecting the S2 in 38.93 and never headed in the process.
We scored a double on Saturday also, Hea Iton Teeny won S3 by 3 1/2L in 39.41 then the versatile Blue Majestic was too good for the other despite crowding when winning the S on the card by 1/4L in 38.34

Cheers Rich
Talking of Pennys Gatsby, many thanks to kennel stalwart Richard Taylor for snapping him up along with Holy Wayne, the very best of luck to you mate.
Three more
Following on from wicked Wednesday, the kennel had another three winners on Thursday night.
Rich Spirit is quickly ascending the graded tree with wins at A4, A3 and now A2.
Proud Mel made us feel just that when winning the 480m Maiden Open at 8/1 in 28.69.
Pennys Gatsby has an enviable 50% strike rate at Monmore and finished no less than 4th in all eight of his races to date. Like Rich Spirit he had to share the spoils as the judge couldnt split it but a winner is a winner.
Only 1/4 share left in Exciting Prospect

SIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First up was Pegs Berry who doubled her win tally to 2 when taking the A8 by 5L in 29.64.
Next in line was Funny Eyes, a recent winner in A7 company she was straight back down after one unsuccessful outing in A6, the result was the same, a 29.63 win by 2 1/4L.
Smokestack Vikki proved that her last win was no fluke when defying a double upgrade to land the A6 by 1/4L in 29.40 and make it two wins from her first three races.
Slaneyside Angel emulated Vikki in the very next race when recorded a double in A8 this time, 29.71 by 1 1/2L.
Blue Velvet, without a win since way back in March exploded to life when running right away from her A9 rivals to record a 9 1/2L victory in 29.39.
Finally Romeo Interstate put the icing on the cake with another incredibly impressive performance in A6. This handsome son of Superior Product blasted out to lead all the way by 7 3/4L in 29.00......what a performance from the kennels and a massive pat on the back to all the staff at West View, great team!!
Friday, 3 November 2017
Chicken Dinners!
On Thursday, Slaneyside Angel, a baby April 16' puppy, put it all together on her fifth start when successful in A9 class in 29.86.
Today we scored a treble at the Green kicking off with Coolagown Blush. She had been upgraded to A3 despite not winning any of her three A4 races. She gradually improved after six attempts however and led all the way to record 29.02.
Forest Bressie was the middle leg of the treble when scoring by 2L in S4 in 39.30.
Finally Pointless Paloma confirmed she was well treated by the grader when winning as she liked in A5 in 28.93, having previously mixed it in A2 class at Central Park.
Monday, 30 October 2017
Slipped the Net
Our eagle eyed owner Richard Taylor kindly pointed out we missed a winner on Thursday, the classy Pascals Law won the A1 on the card, prevailing by the minimum margin to clock 28.65 and for once getting a clear run!
Ja Mel!
Thursday, 26 October 2017
Staying is the game
Murlens Redhot repeated the feat on Wednesday by taking her first graded 6 bender, an S2 in 39.03. On the same card the puppy Smokestack Vicki showed what benefit she had gained from her debut nine days earlier when routing the A8 by 5 1/4L in 29.28, this March '16 daughter of Ballymac Eske has got skills!
Sunday, 22 October 2017
The eyes have it

The Ladies Have It!
On Wednesday Ferneys Signora notched career win No4 (2 at Monmore and 2 at Perry Barr) when taking the A5 by 1L in 29.20.
Thursday we had Jaffer win for us, he was always dangerous in A2 having previously won A1's. He made no mistake scoring by 3/4L in 28.77.
Today we had a treble from the fairer sex. La Estrella was first up when notching win No2 in only eight starts at the Green, 29.74 by 1L in A9 class.
Headiton Vikki made light of a troubled passage to win S3 by a Shd in 39.66.
Finally we had Pointless Palamona taking the S2 on the card by a Nk in 39.41, this was her 3rd start for us having arrived recently from Central Park, she will win her fare share here.

Yee Haa!
All the winners in recent days.
Staff Rebel has firmly put his quiet summer behind him with two wins from his last three races (and beaten a SHD in the other!). S3 and now 29.30 in A6 on Friday.
Saturday we saw the massive Chez Vic, a 39Kg son of Pots and Pans win A2 in 28.80 despite troubled passage.
Next on the night was Barnagrane Glen in the A1. She had been beaten a SHD in her last two A1's but put them right here with a cosy 28.72 victory.
Headiton Murph bought up the treble on the night when romping away with the S1 by 5 1/2L in 38.10, when Murph gets a clear run he usually wins...nuff' said.
This afternoon Westmead Clyde showed he has'nt finished his progress at Monmore by taking the A3 by a HD in 28.91.
Finally, Whiskey Jaydee showed good early gears once again to take the S4 on the card by a HD in 39.73, he is running really well over the trip.
Saturday, 14 October 2017
Flandy Megry Retires
Flandy Megry has sadly torn a shoulder muscle yesterday in her 179th race.
Flandy has been a stalwart of the kennel for many years, winning 27 races at Monmore and Towcester.
She was Richard Taylor's first ever greyhound and she gave him that much enjoyment, Richard fell in the love with the sport and has gone on buying many more dogs and now owns over 25.
Flandy will now be retired and found a loving home, which she deserves.
CJ for DS
A warm welcome to the Kennel for Dave Stidworthy who has just become a new owner.
Dave has bought Cee Jay Kickham who was a mighty impressive winner for us on his debut.
Lets hope CJ can give Dave many more
Wednesday, 11 October 2017
Lolly licks 'em
CJ can kick it!

Gatsby is Great
Friday, 6 October 2017
Un, deux, trois
Large Shilling was first up with a gutsy SHD win despite missing the break, he recorded 28.86 for his A2 gold.
Lavan Lyrics debuted in A5 and she showed she will be a force at Monmore when leading all the way to win in 29.06, more to come from this girl for sure.
Holy Wayne really has the bit between his teeth after that nice first win last week. He doubled up in A5 with a typically strong finishing effort to win A5 by 3L in 28.89.
Monday, 2 October 2017
Afternoon duo
On the same card this afternoon Murlens Redhot, who gave a strong pointer to her well being last week, really put them to the sword today when winning her A4 by 4 1/2L in a rapid 28.72.
Wednesday, 27 September 2017
2 for this week so far
Monday, 25 September 2017
Thank You Richard
Rich Taylor's lucky spell continues.
After buying Westmead Clyde and Ferneys Signora last week they both won in their first race for Richard.
Thank you once again for your continuous support and lets hope your luck carries on.
Sunday, 24 September 2017
Quad!
Smokestack Levi, so unlucky not to win the 630m Open last week made amends in A3 winning easily by 3L in A3 class.
Rich Spirit ran a debut race full of promise and built on that in his very next race when bolting up by 4 1/2L in A4 in 28.87...loads to come from the son of Pleasant Moments.
The other A4 on the card was won by our own Headiton Sharpy in 29.26, Sharpy is steadily coming back to his very best form now.
The final leg of our quadruple was bought up by Ryders Ellie when she pretty much led all the way in S4 to win in 39.09.
Friday, 22 September 2017
On you go Dot!
She was given an excellent chance by the grader and thankfully did the business when winning A7 in 29.27 today.
Clyde...you're alright son!
Two Wednesday warriors
Wednesday we had a double with Coolagown Lolly and Pennys Gatsby.
Lolly got off the mark at her 5th attempt when taking A8 by 2 1/2L in 29.55.
Pennys Gatsby won by the A6 in 29.24 with the first four dogs being split by Sh, Sh and a Hd.
Monday, 18 September 2017
Flying!
On Friday Geneva Ger won heat 1 of the Owners Bonus Series S2 when prevailing by 3/4L in 38.78. Fingers crossed for the final. On the same card, Headiton Teeny won in A7 again after dodging an upgrade despite a recent win in the same grade.
Saturday was fill yer boots day with no less than 4 winners for the camp.
Seoul Aurora was first up, she had been struggling to adjust to A4 class after that good win in A6 but made no mistake on her fifth attempt with a comfortable 3 1/2L win in 29.11. When she shows that early she's hard to beat.
Express Bressie was dropped to A10 and the result was instant when winning by 3 3/4L in 29.52.
Afan Thor, previously as high as A3 class got back in the winners circle with a 2L A7 win in 29.40.
The four timer was bought up by Droopys Fafe, this girl is really flying again and showing great EP to take the A1 by 2 1/2L.
This afternoon Miss Jodee flew the Westview Flag when prevailing by a short head in 28.86 A4 class.
Wednesday, 13 September 2017
Shilling coining it in!
Large Shilling makes it 3 wins from his last 4 races today.
The A3 win on Saturday was followed up with an A2 win today. Onwards and upwards for the Shilling!
Tuesday, 12 September 2017
Headiton too Sharp
Sunday, 10 September 2017
Reposted!
We had two winners on the night.
Pascals Law, who despite running with great credit had not won since that 28.20 A2 demolition job back in April, got back on his pedestal when winning the maiden 480m Open at the Green at Evs!
Soon after our own Blue Majestic upset favourite backers when holding them all the way to win the 630m Open in 38.44, this fella is a win machine!
Luck?
First up was Geneva Ger, who led at the 6th bend to win S2 in 38.74.
Next up was good ol' Flandy Megry, the May 2012 daughter of Cashen Legend added yet another win to her CV when getting up near the line to win S3 in 39.01.
We caught fire on Saturday evening when Afan Jack set the tone when maintaining that 1-4-1-4-1-1-4-4-1 sequence with a hard fought A4 win in 29.04.
Recent bargain buy Coolagown Blush did not have to wait long for her first win, she hit the crossbar last week but made no mistake when winning the A5 in 29.18...loads more to come from this daughter of David Bale.
La Viento has had some issues her fledgling career but fair play to Monmore, they gave her a chance to atone in A10 and she did not put a paw wrong by winning 1L in 29.77.
Finally Large Shilling continued his run of top form when making it 2 from his last 3 in A3 company in 28.82.
We seem to be at the right end of some very close finishes for a change which reminds me of the old maxim....there is only one sure thing about luck, and it's that it WILL change.
Thursday, 7 September 2017
A Brace
In the next race Droopys Fafe who had previously only mixed it in OR/A1 class in 2017, appreciated the ease to A2 company when proving too good for the opposition clocking 28.86
Monday, 4 September 2017
A brace
Barnagrane Glen showed she is still a force to be reckoned with in A1 company when leading all the way to score in 28.54
Thursday, 31 August 2017
Double Up
In the very next race, funny eyes, having her seventh career start and debuting at Monmore got off the mark with a nice win in A6 and can do better still.
Monday, 28 August 2017
Go Clyde
Thursday, 24 August 2017
Maxed it out!
Back on track
Afan Jack is having a summer to remember, he recorded the fourth win in his last six outings when taking a trouble strewn A4 in 29.20.
It took Chamberlain Zara 15 races to record her first win but only two more races to notch a second win when scorching away by 10L in A2 class in 28.48, reckon she won't see that grade for quite a while now!
Saturday, 12 August 2017
Quality!
A quality three timer for the kennel on Thursday with Blackstone Solar kicking us of with a fine A2 win in 28.45.
Proud Mel matched this feat when also winning A2 by a neck in 28.73.
It was left to Jaffer to put the icing on the cake with a brilliant run to win the A1 in 28.46
Thursday, 10 August 2017
At last!
Thursday hatrick
It took us months and months to get Blackstone Solar right
After injury but in his debut race tonight he won the a2 in style winning for owners Richard Taylor and Edward Bentall in a good 28.45.
Proud Mel also took another a2 making all and giving Taylor a double in the night.
Jaffer won the a1 in a trap to line victory.
Monday, 7 August 2017

Friday, 21 July 2017

2 before tea
Our second winner today came from Notorious Rhys, he always looked to be a winner lurking in A4 as he is a bit better than this, a dog blessed with solid early pace, he rode some trouble to snatch an important first bend lead to win by 3/4L.
Archie on target
He had a troubled debut run in A4 but the grader was clearly impressed as Archie was put up to A3 despite being beaten!
It made no difference on Monday as this handy son of Ballymac Eske proved way too classy when showing too much heel for the others to win by 2L, the time of 28.97 was only average but this dog is way above average I believe.

Mystic Chris
"On the same card Ryders Ellie showed she is still on the improv when despite a double upgrade for winning well in A6, she fairly ran away from the opposition to win by over 5L in 28.79...more still to come!"
Well we were right as she was stepped up in trip latest and had no trouble disposing of S3 class in 38.77, thats three wins from her last four...go Ellie!

Max's the man
His recent times of his races read 28.37, 28.45. 28.40, 28.47, 28.47, and last nights A1 win in 28.41.
It clearly shows this dog tries his heart out every single time he runs. A dream dog for any owner for sure

Sharni just keeps producing
It's never a bad policy when buying a young dog to look at what the Dam has previously thrown. I don't mean Grade 1 winners as such as they then would command a princely sum, no, look at how many wins the progeny have had. As a starting point if the mother throws winners, the rest is a bonus.
One thing the mother Head Iton Sharni does is throw winners!!
Thriving Teeny

Vikki too Tricky
Contesting S2, the brindled daughter of Droopys Jet took it up at the 3rd to win by 3/4L in 38.69
Monday, 19 June 2017
The kennel roars
Ketch Up Ethan was first to get the ball rolling with a led all the way win in 29.10 in A5 (-.70!)
We then took the last three races on the card. Headiton Teeny appreciated the return to S4 when avoiding scrimmaging on the inside to win by over 10L in 38.74.
Smokestack Levi added to his tally with another solid effort in A3 to lead all the way in 28.64.
Found It defied the grader when taking the last race on the card from our own Standbye Athena when leading at the 3rd bend to win in 29.08.
We added to the tally on Saturday night when Large Shilling broke his duck at the 9th attempt. The son of Boherna House led at the third corner to win by 3/4L in 28.84.
Wednesday, 14 June 2017
While the Cats away, the mice will....
Headiton Sharpy, without a win since February and after hitting the cross bar twice recently, finally got back on the podium.
A scrappy race but it did not deter the son of Droopys Jet who led at the third bend to win in 28.88, surely he can double up with a less troubled run next time.
Today's BAGS fixture at the Green was a bit of a feast.
Bloemfontein, fresh from his win only five days ago, doubled up here in fine style despite the upgrade to A4.
Not to be out done, Proud Mel enjoyed her own quick fire double when brushing away the A2 opposition with a cosy 3L victory.
Finally, Scroggy Cherry got a big cheer from her followers, winless since mid January, it all fell right on the day for the daughter of Wise Thought. Early crowding once again could not put her off and she powered home to win well.
Sunday, 11 June 2017
Two singles
On Saturday, Standbye Athena made it win number 17 of her 92 race career to date, she led all the way to record 29.24 in A6 class.
Friday, 9 June 2017
Fore!!
Four winners on Thursday's Monmore Card to write home about.
On her 10th start for us, Pegs Berry got off the mark in S4 class. This daughter of Crash rode some trouble but held on comfortably to record 39.36 which is a P.B and hopefully she gets the winning habit going forward now.
Santas Ace had been kindly moved up three grades for his A6 romp and it took him two runs to acclimatise, last night, this powerful son of Ace Hi Rumble ground it out on the run in to win by 3/4L in 28.84.
Proud Mel took the other A3 and there was never a moments concern as she crossed the line 5L to the good in a personal best 28.62!
Found It was the finally leg of our Quad, unusually for her without a win in 8 outings, the fawn daughter of Sidelight quickened for the second time in her race when forging clear on the home run to win easily by 2 1/2L in 29.27
FORE!!....sorry....FOUR!!

Round Up
Friday we had the incredibly consistent Notorious Rhys winning again. In her last 8 races her form figures read 12241221
This time she made the breakthrough in A3 class with a trap to line win in 28.81.
The kennel legend Maxitout scored yet again in A1 company on Saturday after his recent away trips to Nottingham, the standing dish at the Green won well in 28.37.
Later on the same card Vigourous Debbie secured a brace of S1's when leading from the getgo to win cosily in 38.02
Thursday, 1 June 2017
Teeny not weeny
Running in S4, the diminutive daughter of Droopys Jet (23.3kg) stayed wide and away from trouble to scoot to a 2L success in 39.28
Thursday, 25 May 2017
Max'd it out
Despite taking on a well regarded newcomer in the shape of Donation, Maxitout from his favoured trap 6 took up it around the second turn to run out a decisive winner over the 500m trip. We go into the final as fastest heat winners and looking like it's just Donation we have to hold off again.

Stack is Smoking now!
On the same card, Afan Jack got up on the line for a SHD victory in A5 for career win number 7.
Sunday, 14 May 2017
The ladies Have It!
First up was Seoul Aurora on her comeback after pulling up lame in March, she led the A3 a merry dance from start to finish and clocked 28.86.
Next was Notorious Rhys who pushed her personal bar a little higher when winning her first A4 and will now rub shoulders with A3 company after another all the way win in 28.88.
The treble was bought up by the ever reliable Student Princess, she had all sorts of trouble last week but was first perfect from the lids and held on by the minimum margin to make it win number 16 in her 58 race career to date.
Friday, 12 May 2017
Peytons the Boy!
He was kindly dropped to A8 and made no mistake when leading at the first turn to win my 2L in 29.34
Tuesday, 9 May 2017
Monday wins
Head Iton Vikki despite a trouble strewn race was strongest at the finish when getting up to win the S2 in 38.59.
In the very next race, Standbye Athena powered away off the 2nd turn to win in A5 in 29.13.
Friday, 5 May 2017
That was ACE
Thursday, 4 May 2017
Oh Danny Boy!
Mystical Danny got his first win on the board since arriving from Central Park. It was in A5 but now he has settled at the track, this likeable son of the great Top Honcho should improve through the grades somewhat.
Good old Afan Jack ran his usual game and consistent race when taking the other A5 on the card by 1L in 29.04.
Sunday, 30 April 2017
10/1!!!
Friday we had vigorous Debbie in the S1, despite some early trouble she strode away for a facile 5 1/4L success in 38.28.
Saturday it was back to the norm of two winners on the card. Jaffer put behind him a couple of 6th place finishes when getting back in the groove in A2, his 2 3/4L win in 28.44 was well deserved.
Fabulous Status recorded a quick double when laughing at her odds of 10/1 with a display of early pace to win well in 38.30 despite the upgrade to S1
Friday, 28 April 2017
Another double!
Roys Boy dead won the first race on Thursday night, an A1 on a very slow track, his calculated time of 28.28 was not too shabby mind.
Sales Fever has made the break through into Open class company now after taking the 630m Open by 1/2L last night. This powerful son of Vans Escalade relished the conditions and continues his tremendous run of form.
Wednesday, 26 April 2017
Another double
Today at Monmore, Maxitout got it spot on with a paw perfect performance on very slow going. Taking it up at the 3rd corner he strode away for a 2 1/4L win in A1 company.
Later on the same card Afan Thor recorded win number 15, soon taking the lead the black son of Slip The Lark was always in command of this A5 eventually stopping the clock in 29.47 (going allowance to follow!)
Monday, 24 April 2017
Double Double
Friday and Saturday were doubles day. Fabulous Status was first up, a regular winner of S2 races and it was no different on Friday with a 3/4L win in 38.35 at the rewarding odds of 6/1.
Head iton Teeney got back to winning ways after 11 previous fruitless outings with a solid win in S4 in 39.13.
We had to wait for the last two races on Saturday night to get on the score card but it was well worth the wait. Head iton Murph won his S1 by 6L in 37.95 then Express Radar won the A2 by 3L in 28.54....both sent punters home happy as 6/4favs.
Thursday, 20 April 2017
It's a long way from Kilkenny
On the same card Express Bressie who had gone off the boil after an S3 win back in January showed what a drop in grade can do. She never saw another rival when striding out for an imperious 8L success in 38.77.
Sunday, 16 April 2017
More!
The Sidelight bitch Found It made it win number four in her career with a game win in A5 clocking 29.15.
Later on the same card, the lightning early paced Notorious Rhys also captured an A5 despite first bend trouble and stopped the watch on 29.01.
We had to wait for the last race on Saturday night to record our next winner but it was well worth the wait. Pascals Law had been eased to A2 by the nice grader and this likeable son of Mall Brandy needed no second invitation when striding to a very stylish victory in a rapid 28.20, that was 56 spots quicker than the other A2 on the card and it should do his confidence the world of good now...expect more!
Thursday, 13 April 2017
Old Father Time
I reckon we found the key to Santas Ace tonight at the Green. He was thrown into Open class company over 4 bends at Nottingham, then struggled in S3 at Crayford but after two runs for us at Monmore over 480m in A5 class, it was clear that he would relish a step up to 630m and proved us right with a terrific performance despite trouble to win the maiden Open, reckon he can take in 8 bends too!
Sunday, 2 April 2017
Bitches..who'd have one?
The old adage to follow a bitch in form so often pays dividends and we saw a prime example last night at Monmore with Barnagrane Glen.
Already a winner of her last two races (A2 and A1) she romped to her three timer with a 3L win, each time getting quicker and quicker clocking 28.57, 28.51 and now 28.32.
All this on the back of ten straight defeats since her last win in November.
Who would bet against her getting the four timer up next outing?
Wednesday, 29 March 2017
Great records
Standbye Athena on the same card bettered that win tally with a 17th success at Monmore for a 29.05 A6 victory.
Express Radar bought up the Monday treble, helped by an ease to A3, this blue son of Droopys Scolari (aren't they all!) took it up at the third bend to win well in 28.62.
Flandy Megry added to this treble on Tuesday's BAGS card.
This amazing bitch has recorded 24 wins, 38 second places and 35 third place finishes in her 150 race career to date!
Her latest win came in S2, another nail biter, she held on by a head in 38.59.

Three Stayers
I have available for sale from left to right Staff Rebel, Pegs Berry and Skip Off.
All three will run over the 630m at Monmore.
I have no doubt they will win many races between them and give their new owners plenty of fun nights out racing.
I will sell them all as a job lot for £1200
I can also syndicate them 3 owners @ £400 each.

The Power
He enjoys the winners, but also takes it on the chin when we have some bad luck and never moans or groans.
He understands you have to enjoy the good times because in this sport there are plenty of bad times.
I would just like to thank Richard for his continued support of the kennel and wish him many more winners over the years.

Juicy Jaffer
On the same card, Found It captured the Paul Smith Memorial Final (A8) in 29.16.
Barnagrane Glen made it three on the night with Gold in the A2 beating our own Maxitout by 3/4L in 28.57.
Saturday, 11 March 2017
Round Up
last Saturday we had the consistent Peytons Boy record another win in Heat 1 of the A7 Paul Smith Memorial Trophy, stopping the clock in 29.48.
Tuesday saw us notch another for March with Whiskey Jaydee who has now won three from only eight runs and clocked a P.B to boot of 29.17.
On Thursday Joy For Roy proved how consistent happy and healthy greyhounds run when clocking the exact same time as the previous winning week with another 28.59 A2 win!
On the same card Afan Jack won by a neck in 29.16 after appreciating the ease to A6 after fruitless attempts in A5 since January.
Ketch Up Ethan captured the treble for us that night. On debut from an earlier career at Swindon he won by the minimum margin at huge odds of 10/1 in A4. Initially Ethan looked highly tried but judging by some of his wins at Blunsden Abbey he looks like a dog that keeps a little in his locker and makes it difficult for the grader to properly grab hold of him.

Rogue is up for sale
Interested parties should contact me asap.
Friday, 3 March 2017
Tou Chez
Since then she has gone on to throw 3 litters of pups to Scolari Me Daddy, Ballymac Eske and now Ballymac Vic. We trained the speedy Frankies Lad from Eske's litter and now we have Chez Vic from Ballymac Vic's litter and we just might have a little star on our hands.
Chez Vic had the second race of her life on Tuesday after a lofty debut appearance in A3 class. I think it is safe to say she came on for that run as she tore away from the opposition to win by nearly 6L in a fantastic 28.35! Not two years old until September, she has unlimited potential and exciting times ahead await for all connected with her.

Blooming Fontein
In the very next race, Joy For Roy proved what a standing dish his is in A2 company with another straightforward win by 3 1/4L in 28.99. The going was registered on the GBGB site as normal but I will be surprised if this is not changed to -30 or -40 in time.
Sunday, 26 February 2017
A Change is as good as.....
Also on the same card Sales Fever helped himself to another S1 and made it three wins in his last four races with an impressive 38.23 victory.
Friday's BAGS card resulted in another win for the progressive Romeo Campaign. A7 at Peterborough not so long ago, he will now cross swords with A2 class at the Green after this comprehensive win in A3 in 28.80 (maybe the grader will look kindly and give him one more spin in A3 ;)

N..N..Notorious
A8 in December and now A3 in February!, thats some improvement for Notorious Rhys after winning his first visit to A4 grade, how high can you go?
Also on the same card yesterday afternoon was Afan Thor who clearly has found his feet now at Monmore and also grabbed an A4
Sunday, 12 February 2017
Debbie so Vigourous!

Big Wheel Keeps On Turnin'
Coolavanny Rogue was dropped to the grade of his debut win and promptly did the business again clocking a personal best of 28.65 in the process and should continue to improve in the coming weeks/months.
Headiton Vikki mixes A5 and S3 with aplomb and notched another gold today winning by nearly 6L in 38.82.
Whisky Jaydee was another to clock a PB when winning A8 in 29.39.
Fabulous Status who was quite an eye catcher in defeat last time duly stepped up to the plate with a cosy romp in S2 in 38.44
Wednesday, 8 February 2017
Early pace wins the race
A double today at the Green, Bricki avoided serious trouble in behind with a rapid break and came home unchallenged by 6L.
Peytons Boy pretty much repeated the feat in A8 later on in the card, the kennel remains in great form still.
Monday, 6 February 2017
Teeny not so Weeny
Headiton Teeny kept the ball rolling today at Monmore. Running again in S3 this daughter of Droppys Jet was allowed to go off at monster odds of 10/1, she showed her customary early pace and won by nearly 3L in 40.19
Sunday, 5 February 2017
5....it's a magic number!
First to kick off the quintet was Notorious Rhys in A5, it took her six races to get a first when but now she is three wins from her last five runs and will now mix it in A4 company.
Next up was Express Radar in A2, without a win since November, this likeable son of Droopys Scolari scored well in 28.73.
Win number three on the night came by the way of good ol' Jaffer. He's been paying the price since that great treble back in October but fairly bolted out and ran away from his A2 rivals to score by 3L in 28.39.
Sales Fever took heat 1 of the Lloyds Coach Services Trophy, an S1 sponsored two round competition and will be joined in the final by our own Vigourous Debbie who qualified in second place in the other Heat.
The final race on the card and our 5th winner came from Romeo Campaign in A4. He'd previously run graded at Swindon and Peterborough but clearly likes his new surroundings as he won well in 28.82 despite crowding at the first turn.

Whisky on the side
Monday, 30 January 2017
Keep em coming
Saturday nights double was started with Auckland Blue, fresh from his win in S4 fiver days previously, the prolific son of Droopys Scolari stepped down in trip to win A5 and leading all the way in 28.92.
La Cuchilla, a recent winner in A2 was dropped after an unsuccessful attempt to win A1 and gratefully accepted the gift when winning by over 4L in a rapid 28.28!
This afternoon Joy For Roy grabbed another A2 with a gutsy win by 1L in 29.17 and make it career win no7.
Fabulous Status, made no mistake with a strong late burst to get up on the line in A3 company on the same card.
Saturday, 28 January 2017
Duo
A couple of winners to mention as we go into the weekend. Thursday was HeadIton Vicki's day, despite early crowding she came out the comfortable winner of the 'Indalo Ace 100 Club' A5.
On Fridays BAGS card Sales Fever was always lurking in S2 and duly obliged by a shorthead in 38.35
Wednesday, 25 January 2017
Improvers
On the same card Dark Eyed Boy ran a similar race albeit in A4 class, this improving son of Midlands Favourite Holdem Spy continues his upward curve of improvement, winning by 4L in 28.85
Monday we saw Auckland Blue win his S4 impressively by 5 1/2L in 38.91 and record the ninth win of his career.
