Are you not gonna split the dogs and bitches in each class as I dont't think they can be judged fairly against each other? I also feel that since u'es are not doing simulated racing I think you should add more classes in the straight racing i.e a bull cross race and a terrier cross race like u'es have in the showing and even a rogue race, as I think that the line up for the racing is limited and the showing defo needs to split?

Thanks for your enquiry,as we have already planned trophys ect for this years racing it probably would be a little late to consider these amendments

to this years racing,however your idea's are something we can consider for our show later in the year & next year.

 

Thanks Ian

I don't think it would be that hard to get an extra few trophies etc for the racing, as u have done away with the simulated racing I dnt think you have really did anything to replace it or make up for it and I think by this the line up is looking a lot more poor than pervious years, but I do feel also with the showing dogs and bitches need split and a lot people will agree on that with me and I know several people that ur lossing out on coming of some the changes aren't made and can ask something who is the judges and especially the lurcher judge?

How much is entry into the fair this year and is there any charges for parking etc as there is all sorts of horror stories going about from an event held on these grounds last week

If you visit Northern Ireland Countryside Fesitval's website you will find more information regarding the entry fee,but i do think it's £12 per adult

with kids free.As regards parking there will be ringside parking at the Lurcher & Terrier events.
