A good night out, very entertaining. Well done to Diamond Geezer, flying the flag for that very special litter, and well done all that took part :thumbsup: When are you doing it again?

 

[Markamys]

Yeah well done to Roger it was a really great night. Well done to Diamond Geezer and all the boys that run, it really was a great race and they did whippet racing really proud and showed everyone there what great dogs whippets are. We got some really great comments when we took Sandman and Markamy's Marley into the blue room to meet people and talk to them about the dogs, the kids loved them. I really hope we can do it again and hope we get more interest from others next time.

Well done Roger

Gooey Dave Sandra Amy and Mark.

Congrats to all who took part and to Roger for organising it.

Having been instrumental in organising "public" racing myself I appreciate how much work and worry is involved. Let's hope that someone out there is inspired to come and join the whippet faithfuls :thumbsup:

Sittingbourne RGT Charity Night 7/5/10

Honeyhills PWRC Exhibition Race

After two trials sessions, 23rd - 30th April at the Sittingbourne track, five Honeyhills PWRC Whippets took to the sand under lights and in front of nearly 2,000 noisy people.

The race distance was over 199m, 218y approx around the 3rd and 4th bend.

Shadow had posted the two fastest times in the trials and went off as the odds on jolly. A book was opened for the race and my attempts to influence 6/4 the field fell on deaf ears!

Diamond Geezer after being declared fit to race by owners Colin and Tina Jennings trailed on the 30th and although totally missing his break ran the bend well.

The race card read as. (abbreviated)

1 Sandman Tilly Nind 14.91

3 Marley Dave Bursey 15.29

4 Diamond Geezer C & T Jennings 15.60

5 Stan the Man C & T Jennings 16.44

6 Shadow C & T Jennings 14.70

After a good even break Diamond Geezer defied his advancing years showing his class and experience breaking from the pack to win in a time of 14.64
