Thanks guinness, I am aware of his breeding and owner and Google showed that he got 2nd in a puppy class back in April.

Just interested to see if anyone has a bit more detailed knowledge of him.

WGD,
Just spoken to a very knowledgable individual who follows the '' Springer '' scene very closely over here and I can confirm the following.
Since finishing 2nd in his first puppy test,( his litter sister was 3rd) Hollydrive Kurt has won 6 puppy tests over here and has also won a Novice Test both North of the Border and also here in the South.Additionally he was awarded ''Best Hunting Spaniel'' in 5 of these tests.
He has also been visited at stud by a FTCH bitch of David Lisset's and has sired 11 pups to this bitch.
He runs in his 1st Novice trial tomorrow on the Copeland Islands so it appears is a dog to follow over the forthcoming months.
If you require any more information revert and I can forward relevant contact details.

Which is why I was asking about him ;)

Many thanks for your response Eoin, very much appreciated. If you hear how he goes tomorrow can you let me know?

WGD,
As requested , dont have complete details yet but can report that Kurt was placed second in his 1st Novice trial today, winner was a dog with previous trial experience.
Since informed winner featured on the Northern Ireland winning Spaniel team at one of the internationals this year and is owned by a Denis Smith, the owner/handler being a very welcome newcomer to the trialling fraternity.
More informed sources will I am sure have the name and breeding of the winner.
