Does anyone have a spare 15mins?
As i have posted i am now the proud owner of a retired greyhound Frankie. http://www.rgtmonmore.co.uk/rehomingdetail.php?dogid=490&page=2 . Sorry i'm useless at posting pics.
I have been doing some research on him. I have traced him back 33 generations!!! Back to the 1820's.
I have found his race results, he has won 18 and came 2nd 14 times, all out of 96 races.
But having spent most of the evening last night and part of today i cannot come up with a picture of him racing or collecting his trophy. I have come up with a video of his father, video's of his siblings. Also I have come up with photo's of his ancestors, but none of him.
I will continue with this search there must be something of him, whether it be a pic or video considering he has raced 96 times. If there is anyone out there who enjoys a bit of online detective work and have a spare bit of time could you see if there is anything?
Here is some info on him,
His race name is Franks Bypass. He has only raced at Monmore Green, Wolverhampton. The local newspaper is The Express & Star (although i have tried that route). The bookies video's are SIS and Betfair, but still can't seem to find anything. I have tried Youtube, with Monmore but can't find a race with him in.
The following links i have found provides all of his data. Which includes DOB, trainer, owner, races, pedigree, etc.

There are videos on these sites, but only one of Monmore. There are many videos and pics of his ancestors and siblings.
I have googled many things but perhaps i have overlooked something. I cannot believe if there is all this data out there and he has raced 96 times, that i cannot find a video or pic of him racing. Any help would be greatly appreciated while i continue with this research.
Thanks in advance whether you find anything or not. Paul
