Match\u00a0PTA\u00a0v 12 teams competing in The Inter Counties Team Invitation Gundog Working Test – September 1st and 2nd 2018 – Chatsworth<\/span><\/p>\n

The Inter Counties Team Invitation Gundog Working Test took place within the splendid surroundings of Chatsworth House with thirteen teams once again competing for The Chatsworth Country Fair Challenge Trophy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The PTA team of Roz McIlroy, Scott Marland, and Captain Gary Collier\u00a0fell just short\u00a0in their quest to\u00a0match last year\u2019s\u00a0first victory with\u00a0an extremely creditable third place.<\/p>\n

The large\u00a0gallery were quick to applaud and cheer\u00a0all the teams who put on an excellent exhibition of skilled gundog handling. As usual the event was extremely well organised and lead by Philip Smithies with the help of a dedicated team of volunteers. Judges were Mr A Schofield and Mr G Barnes, with Paul Dixon and Steve Burns providing the commentary.<\/p>\n

“Congratulations<\/span>\u00a0to the Pennine Training Area team for coming 3rd in the annual working test 2 day event at Chatsworth yesterday.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

On the Saturday we ended the day in 7th place, but on the Sunday managed to pull out all the stops to gain a very creditable 3rd, which means we will be invited back next year. Our team was the same as the one which won this event in 2017…\u00a0Gary Collier\u00a0and Bramble,\u00a0Scott Marland\u00a0and Ice, and\u00a0Roz Mcilroy\u00a0with Bolt.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

All 3 dogs put in a solid performance and picked every dummy on very challenging ground, where most of the time you couldn’t see your dog to handle, due to the height of the Bracken etc.,<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Other distractions, for all competitors, included:- cheering, clapping spectators across the river, a very noisy fly fishing commentary to the right, screeching bagpipes to the left, fairground noise to the centre and air displays above. All the dogs coped very well, which goes to show just how amazing, and focused on the job these retriever breeds actually are. They really were a joy to watch.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Very well done to the Dukeries for coming in first place, Dove Valley 2nd, N&D 4th and KSS 5th. Thanks to all the judges, dummy throwers, commentators (one being our very own committee member,\u00a0Steve Burns) and organisers of this event, especially\u00a0Philip Smithies. Also thanks to the Duchess of Devonshire for presenting the prizes and allowing us to run at this very prestigious venue.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

A special well done goes to Neil Appleton for winning top dog overall yesterday. His young dog Storm put in a cracking performance.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Already looking forward to next year.”<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Paul Newton, winner of Novice commented:<\/div>\n
“I<\/em> just thought I would drop a note of thanks to all of the organisers judges and helpers at Pennine Training area for the terrific Novice working test held by kind permission of Geoff Saint at his fantastic training ground at Haighton.<\/em><\/span><\/div>\n
The Novice working test was in my opinion superbly devised to ascertain whether the dogs competing were ready to progress through to Open which after all is what a Novice test should look to do. All of the judges were ready to offer constructive criticism and expert advice to all competitors all of whom I am sure gained a great deal from the day. The Pennine Training Area is a terrific club which is always welcoming to all and expertly led by Garry Collier does some excellent work in helping drive improvements in the standards of training of working Gundogs throughout the North West.<\/em><\/span><\/div>\n
Long may it continue.<\/em><\/span><\/div>\n
Thanks Again”<\/em><\/span><\/div>\n

“After our disappointing show in the four way match it was great to get the team back to winning ways in our annual match with the Clywd Retriever Club. A great all round team effort topped by 1st in the Open for\u00a0Scott Marland, 1st in the Novice for\u00a0Michael Nelson, and 1st in the Puppy for\u00a0Linda Scott. Well done all team members.<\/span><\/em>
\nClywd delivered an enjoyable well organised day at Soughton Hall shoot in hot sunny weather and a delicious buffet in the shoot lodge after. Extra classes in the last 2 weeks have helped bring a young team a bit further on and it was nice to see some new and old friends enjoying running for both the CLWYD and the PTA”

“Pilling Moss Gundog Club hosted the Interclub Four-Way Match at Whittington Hall on Sunday 29 April 2018.\u00a0 We are very grateful to Lord Wreay and his Gamekeeping staff for allowing us the use of his ground.\u00a0 The ground was very strong – there were many remarks about “sending us mountaineering” however it was wonderful ground on which to run the dogs.<\/span><\/em><\/div>\n
Our judges for the day were Anna Licciardi, Paddy Merrill, Peter Thompson and Karen Parkinson, who all did a sterling job and we really appreciate all they did.\u00a0 The weather was kind to us, we just got a tiny shower late in the day, there was enough breeze for scenting and it remained quite cool.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/div>\n
Everyone did full justice to the sumptuous afternoon tea put on by the Pilling Moss Ladies at the end of the day – if anyone went home hungry – it was their own fault!<\/span><\/em><\/div>\n
Thank you to everyone who helped – especially the dummy throwers and stewards who kept everything running.\u00a0 Special thanks to our own Chair, Brenda Lawson who was the driving force behind the match, she worked so hard behind the scenes and on the ground to make sure this match came about.<\/span><\/em><\/div>\n
Thank you to Burns and Becks’ Kirsty Ranson who came to the rescue when Vince Price’s dog injured herself.<\/span><\/em><\/div>\n
We look forward to seeing you all on Burns and Becks ground next year!”<\/span><\/em><\/div>\n
