Paul Sallis has been involved with greyhounds since the age of 16 having worked with George Curtis for 4 years as a kennel hand looking after the legendary Ballyregan Bob. When George retired Paul spent a year with Bill Masters before spending the next 8 years working in breeding greyhounds.

Paul went back into racing with Gordon Hodson and then worked as Assistant Trainer to Brian Clemenson for 2 years. Training in his own right since November 2003, Paul is an incredibly ambitious trainer and has already had finalists in the Eclipse at Nottingham, The Harry Holmes, Spring Cup and Queen Mother Cup at Sheffield), The Gold Cup (Oxford), Christmas Cracker (Milton Keynes) and the Golden Sprint (Hove). Driving Up Rob (pictured right) made the Final of the Essex Vase in 2005 and went on to win the £2,000 Carling Guineas at Nottingham in 2006. Sallis also won the £6,000 Golden Sprint at Romford with Driving Up Henry and the Midland Grand National with Jills Fault. Jills Fault also reached the Final of the 2006 Grand National at Wimbledon.

Now based in Derbyshire where he moved in 2006, having previously been at Newton Longville, Paul has several top-class greyhounds in his care. The kennels are set in 10 acres of picturesque countryside and alongside the very latest ultrasound machines, other facilities include an all-weather gallop and walking machine.

As well as training greyhounds, Paul's kennels are also home to several broods and this area is looked after by Esther Driver. You can find more details about their breeding program by clicking on the link below.
