SOME PICTURE WHAT A PICTURE
SOME PICTURE WAS AN ABOSLOTUE PHENOMENEN! TRAINED BY THE INCOMPARABLE CHARLIE LISTER FOR OWNER STEVE SPITIERI HE WAS GREYHOUND RACINGS DAVID BECKHAM IN 96 AND 97. HE'S THE FOURTH OF OUR DERBY TOP FIVE.
SOME PICTURE WON THE ENGLISH GREYHOUND DERBY IN 1997 WITH A FOOT PERFECT DISPLAY IN THE FINAL, LEADING EARLY AND RUNNING AWAY FROM THE EVENTUAL RUNNER UP HE KNOWS. EARLIER THAT YEAR HE HAD BREEZED THROUGH THE SCOTTISH DERBY AND SO LATER IN HE YEAR HE WENT TO SHELBOURNE IN A BID FOR THE ELUSIVE TRIPLE CROWN OF SCOTTISH, ENGLISH AND IRISH DERBY WINS. DESPITE ILLNESS (REPUTED TO BE A OFF-COLOUR) IN THE WEEK OF THE SEMIS HE MADE THE FINAL BUT FINISHED DOWN THE FIELD AFTER TAKING A HEAVY KNOCK AT THE FIRST BEND. TOMS THE BEST WON THAT FINAL, ALSO IN IT WERE VINTAGE PRINCE AND SPIRAL NIKITA. JUST SO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT A GREAT DOG SOME PICTURE WAS IN 1996 HE HAD ALSO WON THE SELECT STAKES AT WEMBLEY AND THE ECLIPSE AT NOTTINGHAM AS A RAW NOVICE.
HE ALSO MADE THE BEST START TO A STUD CAREER EVER BEFORE MEETING HIS PREMATURE DEMISE WHEN IN HIS FIRST 100 MATINGS HE THREW A HUGE PUP PER LITTER PERCENTAGE AS WELL AS SIRING THE LIKES OF SEXY DELIGHT, KIT KAT KID, RUSHEEN PICTURE, REACTABOND SLICK AND FAT BOT SLIM. SOME PICTURE WAS A GREAT GREYHOUND IN EVERY WAY!!
