This weekends running of the 2016 headed to Carrignabhfear in what promised to be a cracking meeting as 4 drag hunting associations came together to contest the 2016 International.
In the seniors in what for me was to be the drag hunt of the day,many hounds that have been running well in the run up to the meeting were in with a big shout today , Midday Charm 6 wins from 7 runs , Denton Razor last years winner , Bounty , Mossgrove Dessie & Mossie, to name a few, but today belonged to John O'Callaghan and his English bred hound Ashtree, The bitch was bred by James & John Oldcorn in Cartmel Cumbria, bred out of Eno-Huntsmans Dazzler the former HTA & BHTA registered hound who won the bitch produce @ Westward back in 2014 which was declared void.
She came over to johns kennel at the tail end of the 2015 season , with very little running under her belt in 2016 after breaking, this gutsy hound showed 5th when the call went up she responded with a good turn off foot to hold off Mossgrove Dessie by a length trained by Finbar & Barry O'Sullivan 2015 winner Denton Razor trained by John O'Keefe was 3rd, the remaining tickets went to Jason Leary's Faugheen of the Kerry Beagle Assocation who ran a cracker as fast open fields would not be his usual type of running down in County Kerry, a consistent Bounty of Fairhill took a well deserved 5th place & Ballinard kerry took the final ticket of the day for the Kerry Beagle Association.
John has had his fair share of International ups and downs over the years, john won the puppy maiden with Maxwell in 2005,Senior Maiden with Shadowfax in 2007, 2nd with Justice in 2011 & 2nd in the Seniors with isitit in 2008.
Back in 2003 he won the Senior crown with Milligan @ Rylane ,On that day john's late father John who was very ill at the time turned to John and said “we finally done it” it was the one drag hunt meeting he always wanted to win. Well John you did it again and I'm sure your father would have been looking down on you today with a huge smile on his face.
Jayne Oldcorn who is in Ireland with her partner Ian fleet also had a huge smile on her face today as Ashtree landed the senior spoils, it's her family over in England who had bred the hound, i suspect she will be bending the elbow tonight rather than Ian's ear.
Senior maiden honours went to to Misty of the ICDA in what was a very close finish on the run into the tape just beating Gerry Murphys Diamond into 2nd place Patrick Dillons marley also ran a cracker finishing 3rd badgers shankiel Jude took 4th & 5th spot went to border lad rounding up a great day for the ICDA in the maiden grade, the final ticket went to misty jack of southern & carragaline harriers.
Senior pups winner Mossgrove lady trained by a delighted Finbar & Barry Osullivan, who won by 5 lengths on the run in to the tape beating Blarney rose, son of mossie & mossie son took 3rd & 4th places, blackjack & slievemish fire rounded of a good day for the city hounds.
Maiden Puppy- honours went to Blackjack rover IHT pixie was 2nd for the ICDA ,puerto jack 3rd & the remaining minor tickets went to Cobh Prince, Killians girl & Cool Lulu.
