    I sponsored Bobs 23rd win in his world champion feat at Powderhall and there was a huge crowed who appreciated
    Every stride that Bob took just an unbelievable a great Champion with lovely owners and in my life time there will never
    Be another Bob.

    i have been going greyhound racing since 1970 and i have seen some great dogs but i must say i have never seen a dog to compare with Ballyregan Bob. countless track records. I and many others believed that if the White City had not closed down he would have definitely have won the derby. The track at Wimbledon was to sharp for him

    There should be a film made of him and Scurlogue Champ. It’s a true fairytale story.
    Also, such class and maturity in presenting back then, where did it all go?

    Did Bob return to the UK?, how did he end his days?, I hope he was cared for and given happy and tranquil final years! What a greyhound!

      champ stopped chasing distance probably too short anyway to beat bob at that distance

    I saw him get beat at Harringay went up to the first bend and got done.
    In my opinion he would not have won a Derby.
