About Elaine Saville

Elaine Saville has had a license since 1995 and has been at Nottingham throughout her career as a trainer. In 1973 Elaine's boyfriend owned a greyhound and she immediately became more involved with the sport, assisting trainer Jack Coppin on a part-time basis. Elaine went on to breed her own litter of pups and the success with this litter convinced Elaine that she could be a success in the sport.

She took a break from greyhound racing, got married and started a family, but returned to work for Jack in 1985, this time she becoming more heavily involved.  With the overriding ambition to set up and train from her own kennels, Elaine moved into Two Acres in 1987. The kennels were built by the Saville's themselves in 1990 and it was four years later that Elaine took over the license from Jack Coppin.

Elaine concentrates on the graded strength at Nottingham and has a kennel strength of 24.

One of Elanie's favourite greyhounds is Windgap Goldie who arrived at Two Acres when 17 months old. She started her career in A7's and went through the grades to race in A1's. She won a Puppy Open and would have won more races if it was not for the fact that she was a very bad traveller. 'Goldie' is now serving as a brood at the kennels alongside Izzit Shikaree, a sister to Ace Honcho.

Two Acres has 7 paddocks and all the latest physio equipment for treating and caring for greyhounds. Elaine has a loyal team of owners who have been with her for many years. Kennel fees start at £5 per day and a resting rate applies for greyhounds unable to race.
