i put this out yesterday, and came back with creeds, or breeds, as someone said. Beds in short for county
Personally i didn't like mine or the other suggestion.

To emf. Thank you for the help but I am still baffled as to the answer, annoying as it is the last clue to solve. Breeds makes a little sense.

Breeds looks correct for Races.
About = Re
County briefly = Beds
Re in Beds

i know, but you have to wait days for the answer as its a prize crossword. I had creeds, as in races, but as said, i don't like that or even breeds

emf, gareth and chrisg:

I went with BREEDS for the same logic that chrisg outlined, as CREEDS doesn't include anything regarding a county.
