Mixed Fortunes in Festival

The start of the Christmas Festival couldn't has started much better when we took the opening two graded races. Bawna Gayle took the opening A5 in 29.44 whilst Richter Corgan took advantage of a drop in grade when recording his first win in the A4 in 28.97. In the Bitches competition Fatboyz Diva finished second to qualify in 29.02, Daughter of Peg impressed again when taking her heat in 29.06, Fatboyz Dizzy was unplaced. Sadly Fatboyz Romeo and Selecta Earl failed to qualify in the dog competition and it was the same fate for Ballymac Rumble in the 630. Our big hope in the 416 Derrynaflan Dude met traffic problems and sadly failed to qualify and Ballyneale Bull hopes ended the same way.
