Looking forward to some good running at Wickwar this Sunday and a good turn out :)

If you need any coursing collars and want to support JR Whippet Rescue then come and see me in the campervan decorated in whippets. :thumbsup:

youll have a great day its a long way down that hill (w00t) .get some good photos of mel slipping the dogs and if some greyhounds are there they are a site to see powering up that hill :thumbsup:
 
It's a great day ....Two of my boys are entered just for a blow out as they haven't competed properly for what seem like forever .......Mel will be slipping as always and I know there's a lurcher stake and knowing Bob they'll be a Greyhound stake (well lets hope as they are awesome up the hill) .....But as always it'll be a FUN day out with nothing taken seriously just as it should be :thumbsup:

Really hope the weather is kind to you all. We were entered, but sadly had to withdraw. Winx pulled a shoulder on Monday and I've just taken the stitches out of Milly's leg where she sliced it on glass :(

Hope you all have a brilliant day, it's a fabulous track and Mel is superb :thumbsup:

Don't forget we need pictures, even though this will just make me grumpy and jealous (w00t)

Good luck everyone :luck:

Just got back from a great time at the Hill Sprint, lots of lovely dogs and sporting owners. 42 dogs took part and there were some fantastic courses with close calls. Mel , as usual slipped to perfection; even the first timers came out straight and full of running. The weather was kind,(only one shower), and for some of the time the sun even shone. The track was presented to perfection despite the rain of the past couple of weeks, (and torrential rain overnight), and dried out as the meeting got under way. Bob and Brian drove and retrieved the lure so efficiently that we had finished the card by 2 00p.m. and even had time for a few trials. Congratulations to all they winners and runnersup! Here are the results.
