EPISODE 251: GRAHAM BOX

And elsewhere, any other greyhounds within your ownership that we should be watching out for? Is there anything to look forward to?

We haven't got no others racing.

We've got a lovely litter of pups out of Bocco's Crystal.

uh they're down with rollywood so they're something to look forward to and we've got a young pup which diamonds the dad and the mummy's new in cuckoo which is gold's mum so diamond had his second litter with her and then i've got another litter of pups out of diamond so my bit knew him uh foco's melody so they're lovely ones to look out for but actual ones we've bought recently We've been looking high and low, but there doesn't seem to be much out there at the moment.

So I'm sure something will come up.

Yeah, it sounds like you still have a lot to look forward to.

And as you said, no doubt something will come up.

And very finally, of course, Graham, obviously you're based in the UK, but we've seen it so much in recent years where a lot of prominent UK owners have made the transition, I suppose, to have their greyhounds racing here in Ireland.

It seems like a very popular thing at the moment.

Yeah, right.

It only takes us a few hours to get to Ireland, where we're based in London.

If we want to go racing, it takes us three hours to get to Toaster.

And if you're going to go up north, it's a lot further.

So leaving them in Ireland doesn't make much difference to us.

Yes, it's a very expensive weekend, but we enjoy it when we come over and...

Yeah, that's the route we've taken at the moment.

If I could get the right dog to bring over to England at the moment, I will bring one over tomorrow.

But they're not easy to find.

No, definitely not.

No, it's hard to get the real top class greyhound, there's no doubt about that.
