Gripper Bend Results

[Karen-Coral]

298m track-Big! very similar to Stainforth-

Due to this track having an inside hare it was stopped on the straight-meaning the dogs ran a full circuit+

Quite a hard days running for the dogs attending-due also to the fact that only 11 dogs turned up so there was very little rest in between heats-finals and supreme-

E.g Fluke ran 3 times in less than 1 hour!

Jimmy's dog-'Knocked it' ran well taking the dog final

Also nice to see Bill's-'Tormentor' back running for the first time after an injury as was our own Coral-

Pitts and Pieces came off bruised today-hopefully he will be ok for the champs next week-

A bit of a dodgy moment in Fluke's heat when the lure slowed right down suddenly coming off the top bend-and then speeded up again but all in all a very pleasant day-good track-good breakfast-good weather and beautiful scenery!

Well done to organisers-pity they weren't better supported-
