SEVENHOUSES....Meeting preview
Heres a great Meeting preview by Brian Kennedy....
Click here for DRAW
This coming weekend marks the occasion of the 90th Annual Coursing meeting of the Sevenhouses & District Coursing Club. The club have been coursing on their famous field in Danesfort since 1922, and this year’s meeting promises to be one to rival any that has gone before.
The main attraction for followers of the leash will be the Seamus Hughes memorial Cup, which attracts a super entry this year. With the national meeting in Powerstown Park only two weeks away, this all age completion feature an number of dogs on the quest for a place in the Champion Stakes in Clonmel.
The dog to watch will be Marshals Safari, a champion stakes runner last season, and dual cup winner this Season, Mooncoin and Crohane. He will most probably start favourite. However, competition will be stiff, with cup and trial stake winners throughout the draw.
'Safari will have to hit the ground running, as he meets Lawlee in Rd. 1, he was last year’s first talking dog after a couple of flashy runs in Glin, but he hasn’t had it easy with fitness since, but reports from Kerry say he is coming good again. Coming at the winner of that buckle will be possibly Needham Skill, TS winning and cup winner from Rathdowney, he holds 6 champion stakes points, and is a dog of huge talent.
As you go through the cup, it doesnt get any easier, Cantalach Cocaim is a winner and runner-up this season, Wheel of Time a cup winner, Shanavullin Pines, a one time antepost Derby favourite, Coshair Magic, Gortglas Houdini and Ashmore Lucky very good trial stake winners, Gypsy Rover, cup winner and ru this season... Then we have the bitches, Gentle Angle is chasing a win that would put her in the Champion Bitch field in Clonmel, while the wonderful Beautiful Chrissy a 5 time cup winner is also looking to book her place in the Powerstown line-up. It is certainly a wonderful cup, when we got back from the great Templetuohy meeting yesterday evening, we had 42 entries standing for this stake, so I suppose it was easy in that respect to come up with such a field, but a nightmare in many other respects.
On that note, for the open events, trialstakes, 3 course duffer, Cup, we had a record entry, and after yesterdays late withdrawals the state of play was OTS 69 bitches, RDTS 64 dogs, Cup 42, and Duffer 37. It is a terrible situation to have to disappoint so many, and as the receiver of entries I have been bearing the brunt of it today, but such is the territory, the messenger is being shot !
Anyway back to the Trialstakes, again theses promise to be super affairs, with the RDTS, throwing us no less than 4 TS runner up's form this season, and while the layers will want to stay on the right side of Big Mahie, Barefoot Wally, Dustys Blueboy and Fords Cross, those in attendance would do well to keep an eye of July pup Cleanaway Rodge, who looked the part in Fenagh earlier in the season, and with age on his side he should be right there with the best of them.
The is again a highly competitive affair, with plenty of runners up and hotly fancied bitches going to slips here. In the top half we have runners up, Boomtown Hazel, Cousins Ruby, Chateau Bow Wow and Vacume Vagabond, who are joined by a bitch that has twice been fav on the final day of coursing this year, Shaunanne Flyer. It does not weaken down the bottom either, Crafty Cielo, Lady Casanova, Wine for Shine, Call Me Kerry, Miss Abby & Pumpaction Nina have all hit the post this season...
This year Sevenhouses are also hosting a new event in the coursing calendar, the English Invitation Champion Cup, which will be a keenly contested 8 dog stake, for English owned and trained greyhounds, that have been running in stakes around Ireland this season in an effort to qualify for this event. With coursing under cessation in the United Kingdom for the past number of years, this event offers a chance for English owners to continue to run their dogs in this ancient sport.
In the interests of good old fashioned sport the first round losers in the English Champion Cup plus their reserves will go forward to take on the losers form the working members stake in the first running of the Why You Monty Anglo-Irish Cup.
The card will also feature the John Drennan memorial 3 course duffer, and the Garnaman & Leo Dwyer Cup for working members of the club. A great weekends sport is promised with the first brace of dogs going to slips at 11.30am each day.
The order of running is as follows:
Saturday, Sunday 14th and 15th January
Judge: Tom Lawler Slippers: John Doyle and Brian Doyle
Start 11.30am both days
Saturday: Twice through Reserve Derby TS and Oaks TS. Once through Seamus Hughes Memorial All Age Cup, Working Members Stake and English Invitation Champion Cup.
Sunday: Start with 3 Course Duffer, Anglo-Irish Why You Monty Cup, Working Members Stake and complete card.
Yours in Sport !

ROSEBERRY OPEN COURSING REPORT
HARRY SCORES IN ROSEBERRY OPEN CUP
26th december
Parker Harry a puppy running in the nomination of Glen Healy and handled by Alan and Sean Quinn from Dublin was the winner of the Roseberry Open Perpetual Cup sponsored by Donal Monahan over the clubs preserves on St. Stephens Day. In what was a great days hunting after a tardy start this Shelbourne Aston whelp a comrade of this years Liscannor Dog Trial Stake winner over came all the obstacles placed in front of him to emerge as the worthy winner. A very nice feature of this win was that 30 years ago Alan’s dad Kevin Quinn RIP. had the privilege of winning in Roseberry so Alan took extra delight in this fine win of Parker Harry’s.
The first brace of Parker Harry and Offshore Hawk were released behind a racing hare on the stroke off Eleven O clock. On the white collar it looked as if the Hawk with the aid of favour was going to get the opening turn but to Harry’s credit he came around on the outside line to nip it by a length. This pair then mixed it evenly in a good course that lasted 25s before puss left the field.
Trip to Aries had a handy lead up to the first turn as his opponent Nama Rama lost sight on the run up. Aries took the opening two turns before this course ended after 12s to leave her well ahead on the handicap for her second round.
Scrap Man and Garryowen Kate had a ding dong battle after being released up the hill and on approaching the opening turn it was Garryowen Kate that pulled out to lead by a length to the only point scored in this course with Kate progressing to the next round after 10s.
Dingle Call and Large Scotch were sent back to slips after failing to sight their quarry. Placed back in slips a stag of a hare emerged from the beat, with both dogs being released in her slipstream it looked as if Dingle was on line but on hitting a hollow on the run up both dogs again lost sight and in turn the Judge Garry Kelly had no option but to disqualify both contestants.
Drumlynn was best away from slips in her course with Bestlaidplans and with the aid of pronounced favour she took the opening turn by two lengths she also got in for the next before puss crossed the bridge heading back in to the previous beat after 12s.
Lobnamna Shauna led Calypso Dream by one to the first score and with both hounds mixing it pretty evenly they were brought on a tour of the lower half of Farrells field in a course that lasted 30s before this strong puss slipped out under the wire and was last seen heading up Cash’s lane. Lobnama had done enough to progress into the next round.
Hold Up and Lurgan Queen were sent back to slips after failing to spot their quarry. Back in slips they were released behind a racing hare that headed straight towards Murphy’s farm yard. In a pulsating workout that the crowd really enjoyed it was Lurgan Queen that earned the most points to gain the flag after 45s.Both these hounds looked very weary once caught by the handlers.
At ten minutes after midday Liffyside Odson led up by three lengths ahead of Nanas Bluebell. Nanas then got in and proceeded in a very jealous fashion to completely outscore her opponent. When this racing puss made her exit after 50s Nanas very deservingly had gained the judges decision despite being led up to the opener.
On the change of beat we headed into the Cush at 12.55hrs with slipper John Doogue walking Parker Harry and Trip To Aries up the field. Up popped the expected hare and once getting both dogs sighted they were released, again on the outside line it was Parker Harry that took the opening points before this hare went into the adjoining field with both dogs in tow. Harry scored again before Aries got in for a brace, with this buckle beginning to get close on the scoring card it was Harry that then put the result beyond doubt with a brace before puss went out onto the golf course after 22s.
Garryowen Kate was sent back to slips as she failed to spot the first hare up the field. Once slipped again she was brought to the top of the field and then over across the next field before being caught after 32s.
Drumlynn led Lobnama Shauna by a tight length for the opening point and in a punishing evenly contested course that ended out on the golf course with the hare skipping around the pond and thus loosing both dogs after 50s. Drumlynn advanced to the semi’s.
With the stock now coming hard and fast it was a credit to all owners and handles in the manner in which they just caught their dogs and headed straight back to slips if they were still in. This was really brought to the fore when you could see Phil Meaney giving Jimmy Darcy a hand in getting Drumlynn back from the golf course and placing her back in slips.
In between all this happening we had two more buckles decided. Lurgan Queen just held on against Nanas Bluebell to gain the opening points and in a very evenly contested course in which both bitches gave their all it was the Queen that advanced to the Semi Final placing with Drumlynn.
The first semi final pairing of Parker Harry and Garryowen Kate were sent off after a stag of a hare that raced straight up the field. Harry led by three and had the best of the rest before this hare made his way past the previous two courses retrieving parties. Once passing out the ditch after 34s it was clear that Harry was the first finalist.
With plenty of game still in front of the beaters it was the sporting owners of both the second semi finalists Drumlynn and Lurgan Queen that placed both dogs in the hands of John Doogue and within twenty seconds a strong running hare made her way past the slipper shy. To both bitches credit they set off after their prey with Lurgan opening up a two length advantage to take the opening score.This hare then made her way to safety with both hounds following her a fair distance away.
With the beat now just in the finalists were placed in slips, no hare emerged so the beat was reversed to come from the railway end. Once set up again a stag of a hare was risen in the stubble field and made her way out into the coursing field with Jimmy Smyth doing Trojan work in keeping her straight. Once slipped it was Parker Harry that showed he was the freshest left in as the gallant Lurgan Queen was not able to live with this winner who took the course with the opening turn taking place up along the ditch line and then puss headed out of the field with Harry still giving chase. The red handkerchief in favour of Parker Harry was raised by Garry Kelly at 14.15hrs to the echos of his followers and also from the beaters who had done fantastic work over the day to bring this meeting to an end.
Thank You to all who helped make this a great days sport over the Roseberry Countryside.
The Clubs Annual draw was made in the Granary Public House after coursing and resulted as follows. 1st Prize Donal Monahan. 2nd Leo Scully, 3rd Caoimhe Lacey O’ Brien and 4th Alan Kelly.
