Team ready for Trainers Championship Challenge

A massive night for the kennel tomorrow as we travel to Wimbledon to compete in the 2011 Betfair Trainers Championship. Its a great honour to be going in to battle against the biggest names in sport but I can assure you we are not going there to make the numbers up. All the team are primed to give there best.

For all those travelling down in our army I'd like to thank you all for your support again. Please remember the coach is leaving the Cleveland Arms 1-1.30pm and the Bull & Butcher 2-2.30pm - Don't be late.........

The night consists of eight high quality races. Each winner is awarded 10 points, 2nd 5 points, 3rd 4 points, 4th 3 points, 5th 2 points, last 1 point. Which ever trainer has most points is crowned the Champion Trainer.

Here are my thoughts on our chances -
7.40 Uncle Rico - Still a maiden and thrown in at the deep end. Would be great if he could pick up early points for us but looks a tough ask.

8.00 Fifis Rocket - Tends to break well from trap 6 and has beaten this class of opposition before. Very hopeful.

8.15 Express Rocket - Obviously has stand out form. Whilst he trialed around Wimbledon he has come straight from Monmore. Different traps and plenty of pace to deal with. 

8.35 Ten Dollars More (pictured)- Three from three in 2011. Seems to be in the form of his life and I'm expecting a big run which will get our supporters cheering.

8.50 Borna Jessica - Our only bitch running. Never runs a bad race, would love her to trap out !
9.10 Westmead Grant - Making debut for kennel. I'm expecting a big run and score some useful points.

9.25 Head Iton Jason - This dog is on fire. Three straight wins since joining us. Very tough race, its like the St Leger Final. I'm sure he will give his best but looks like a tough assignment.

9.45 Brittons Empire - Will need to use her massive early pace and trap to perfection. If she leads off the last, cheer loud and help her get home.

What ever the result it promises to be wonderful night. Good luck to all those who have runners. Please take your camera's with you to record the night. I'd like to post your photos on the site as a record. I might even sort out a prize for best photo ! Just send them to ndugganisrm@hotmail.com who will edit what you have and make them live on the site.
