Housekeeping

A little house keeping to catch up on.
On Saturday Celtic Ranger won his second race from only three starts. The son of Mind The Net clocked 29.22 in A5 for a cosy 4 3/4L win. On the same card Deathrow Dave appreciated the graders leniency of dropping him from A5 to A6 and finally this A7 which he took in 29.45.

Monday was doubles day as well courtesy of Slaneyside Goldi, she won her A4 by the minimum margin in 29.24 and has the impressive recent form figures of 2-1-3-2-1-2-3-1
Torque Blazer is not far behind Goldi now either and he too won on Monday, an A4 by 1L in 28.93 and can show off figures of 2-1-3-1-1-5-1 in his last seven races.

Shovel It On kept the flag flying for us on Tuesday, she won the A7 comfortably by 2 1/4L in 29.40

A double double

A nice start to the week with a brace on Monday and the same on Tuesday.
First on the rostrum was Pennys Gatsby after his Nk win in A3 class, he is finding it difficult to break through the A2 glass ceiling but this slightly lower grade is a happy hunting ground.
Next came Moanteen Golden. She had graded in pretty high in A3 and found it tough, the daughter of Kinloch Brae went A4 then A5 until she found the win but this A4 victory means she is really finding her feet now and she should acquit herself well in higher grade.

The second double came Tuesday courtesy of Funny Eyes and No Naughty Names.
Funny Eyes has had a bit of a drought since that January win but bounced back in good style admittedly avoiding trouble behind she strode on for a 4 1/2L win in 29.64.
No Naughty Names won his A5 by 1/2L and clearly learned plenty after his debut last week, more to come from this Oct 16' pup.

Four!

One winner on Monday and a three timer on Tuesday is not a bad way to start the week.
Notorious Rhys was first up and has now made it four wins from her last eight races with a narrow victory in A3.
Snooty Maguire gained his first win after only three starts with a 1 1/2L A9 win in 29.52. Moanteen Golden repeated the dose, after debuting in A3 she was dropped to A4 and then to A5 but hit the bullseye at the third attempt with a 2L win in 29.17 (more wins to come!)
Finally Smokestack Vicki was quickly into stride and set up a race winning advantage to clock 29.62 in her A6.

Round up

Plenty of winners to document from West View Kennels in the past week or so. Touch Black was having his third start for us and comfortably landed the A9 by 2L in 29.76 last Friday. On the same card Slaneyside Goldi won her a5 by a neck in 29.33 closely followed by Coolagown Pretty, again in A5 she supplemented the previous weeks S2 win with a near 2L success in 29.15.
Proud Mike was our next Gold, a 1 1/4L win in A3 when leading all the way to score in 28.72 for a heat of the Owners Bonus Series.
Last Monday, Dainty Hunter was QAw,ALed when prevailing by 1/2L in A3 and at huge odds of 8/1.
Large Shilling had recently returned to form with an A5 win, he had mixed it at A2 level in the past so it was no surprise to see him add an A4 to his stats, a 2 1/4L win in 28.94 says he's not done just yet either!
Like Touch Black, Pakkashilly scored on his third start for his new kennel on Friday, a 1/4L win in S3 recording 29.83.
Finally, on the same card Smokestack Levi held on for a 1/4L in S2 company in 38.69, loyal supporters were rewarded with a 7/1 payday.

Magnifique!

We certainly did 'keep it going' this weekend with a magnificent five winner haul!
First up on Friday was Coolagown Pretty in an S2, having previously found it a grade too far, the daughter of David Bale made the race her own with a strong charge from the 4th bend to win by 2L in 38.60.
Next came Head Iton Vikki, without a win since January, she got up near the line in A5 to win going away by 1 1/4L in 29.15.
The treble was secured on the day in great style by Gunga Din, evidently dangerous in A5 company she ran away from them at the end to record a 4 3/4L romp in 29.15.

On Saturday we bagged a brace, Ten Lengths almost lived up to his name, the blue son of Zero Ten improved on his debut with a 7L demolition of his P7 in 29.13.
The final winner of the weekend was from another offspring of Zero Ten, this time Dunbolg Juno. It was her second Monmore win as she got up in the last stride to win by a Shd in 29.23, the price was a staggering 14/1!!.
