Open news update

We still lie in second place in the Trainers Championship, four points behind the Wallis team. Charlie Lister does to appear to have us both in his sight after lasts weeks Yorkshire St Leger victory. We will endeavour to keep up the best we can but the dogs have had a very busy year.


Tullna Rose qualified for the second round of the English Oaks on Saturday but qualifying for the next round looks very difficult. We can only hope she pings out and makes them all go.


We start this week with a trip to Nottingham tonight with Bolt Ya Rocket, Scarty Paddy, Jungleland, Skyline Amber and Head Iton Tom. On Tuesday Yorkshire Lady, Ballycasey Girl, Express Gear and Ballymac Ace will represent us at Hall Green as the Midland Flat Championship starts. This used to be a great competition in years gone past. Finally Brittons Empire goes in the Gem Racing Super Paws Semi Final at Poole where it would be great to appear in another big Final.


Before racing tonight at Nottingham both Fifis Rocket (17.96 pictured) and Drumcove Lad (18.03) had pleasing trials in preparation for the National Sprint.
