This week Desmond Lynam takes a look at some unusual animal sports, such as the Kiplingcotes Derby. One of the oldest flat races in the country, it is a gruelling test for both horse and rider and, of course, there are no judges, no bookmakers, and the riders must be over ten stone. There is also a trip to see a ferret race, a meeting with an Afghan hound, and the Papingo Shoot: an event in June where the Kilwinning Abbey Ancient Society of Archers get together and aim to kill a stuffed bird!
