Great race


Recommended Posts

In my opinion, the uk open coursing that was going on before the ban, was a lot better, as their hares were on their own ground and showed a better test. The irish coursing is about which greyhound gets to the hare first and that's it, they also have to where muzzles. The hares are caught and kept in pens, then released in front of the greyhounds, not my cup of tea! In the uk, before the ban, the hare were not caught and kept in pens.

Just have a look below at the waterloo cup, what a difference.. :thumbs:

much much better than whats happening now, some stunning runs, sad thing is our kids will never get the chance to watch greyhounds doing what they were really meant to do under the current legislation, tying in with another ongoing thread.....maybe if a few of us that pay effin thousands in taxes over here decided to up sticks and move to poland and leave the bunny huggers and political namby pamby yesmen over here with all the scrounging immigrants and the like theyd maybe realise the error of their ways......but only maybe

No pal it's coursing just like the Waterloo it's all been stopped as far as I know

 

True for us english people but that is Ireland where it's legal

 

The Irish had sense and didn't bring the ban in mate ;) unlike our labour loonies :censored: :censored:

they saw the ban coming and brought in muzzles-its my cousins boyfriend handling the dog at the end of the video.I think that big fella thanks dog was 8 stone weight.

Boavista got pulled after that for the amphet in his blood. He did not win.

 

How did they find out testing blood/ urine didn't look that much quicker than the other dog TBH.

his urine id say,its still in court over failing the test in 2006 no money was giving out til its finalised in court and hasn being yet over some reason or other,he had won 24 out 24 races all over ireland that same year :thumbs: Edited by seang

Bryan look at the track greys, less than a second can split them between top grade and second grade dogs ;) , before anybody asks my greys are bottom of the class track dogs :laugh:

as long they put in a good honest effort in a race is as good as any win :thumbs:
