As someone who travelled all over the country to watch him run, Scurlogue is the last one I would use as a sire, he was a thinker, pulled up a couple of times, no doubt he'd have passed some of that onto his pups. Bob broke his heart that night at Wembley, and history has shown that he passed his ability and determination onto his coursing pups 1 Quote Link to post

I think Bobs owner was mates with the coursing lads and let them use him... And what a dog to use as Bob has really left his mark in the coursing world.... I know of several well known trainers back then who let some top class greyhounds have a run behind a hare for a bit of sport.... Unknown to their owners 2 Quote Link to post

You'd probably get a top bred pup for £500 these days, have to keep your eyes open mind Quote Link to post

No doubt you will have no trouble selling they look we'll reared. Atb Quote Link to post

Lol.... To say he could run is a bit like saying Tesco own a corner shop.... To say he didn't produce when he sired Beanie, who then sired Caulfields Jo, then Jack etc makes Bob probably the most influential greyhound ever in coursing lines and i am sure the top coursing men can all find him in their lines..... But opinions are like arseholes we all have one. Quote Link to post
