County Durham and also the NNWRF Straight Championships held on May 24 and 25 at Swallownest near Sheffield.

The two events are highly regarded and Alpha is looking forward to
supporting both top class fixtures.

John Walgate of Alpha Feeds said: "The Whippet racing world is very important to Alpha and we are very pleased to be sponsoring these two prestigious events.

"Alpha Feeds is committed to supporting country sports, a sector many of our customers enjoy and follow.

"From Field Trials to Greyhound Racing, Dog Agility and Lurcher events, all
have helped Alpha to become the number one food fed by people who are
passionate about the country way of life.

"There is nothing better than watching a Whippet that is in the best of
health, race and win.

"Whippet Racing events are always very well attended and we are delighted to do what we can to sponsor these two prestigious weekends which are both serious competitions and provide a lot of fun at the same time."
