Smart performance by Bid in Puppy Derby

It was another night of mixed fortunes for us at Monmore last night as the biggest Puppy competition of the year started. Smart Bid put in a very gutsy effort to take Heat 4 in 28.54 by a short head. Whilst it was a cracking performance he will need to improve again to seal a place in the Final. Sadly Fifis Legend suffered a nasty fall in the same heat. I'm pleased to report he is just a little stiff and should be fine with a short rest. 


First bend crowding ended the chances of both Vedfield Solid and Sharp Bullet in Heat 3. Whilst we are disappointed I'm sure both dogs will have great year in 2012. Our final runner Sids Champ snatched the final qualifying spot in Heat 6, he suffered traffic problems in running but stayed on well.
