Busy Monday

YPOM (A6 5.44pm) and Avenue Guide (A5 4.48pm) both looks to have chances on Mondays advanced card at Monmore.

YPOM trialed over 6 bends on Tuesday and recorded a very average 39.58. Might get us in S5. The going on the track was very heavy so we must give her another chance.

Both races will be shown in all betting shops.

Faraday Flies

Faraday recorded an impressive 30.18 (Lances target was 30.20)first time over 4 bends at Coventry on Wednesday. The time does not tell the only story. The bitch that beat her is a consistent A1 type in Shelbourne, nicely bred, and has a Rapid 21.40 in Dundalk so it puts our ladies early pace at the top table.

Her split time was an amazing 5.36!! Check the regular split time and you will see how much that stands out.

Hopefully we will see her see the trip out next week with a bit more experience behind her and after all she is still only learning her trade. This will hopefully be her final trial before we can pick out a target for her.

Week Ahead

Flynn and I went up to Martin's to walk the gang this morning. This week will hopefully see the Prince(Lisa's Invader) and YPOM have trials of different distances. We will then hopefully have three on the card at Monmore.

Martins dogs are running well at the moment and last night saw Conspiracy Kid win the Branston 480 Puppy Open in the track. Proud Ronaldinho then followed up in the Shifnal 630 Open. With Brooklyn Bridge returning to action this week should see plenty of good winners coming through his kennels.

Faraday Flies

Faraday won her mixed trial this evening winning in 17.48 at Coventry. She will now be stepped up to four bends next week.

Looking promising!!!

Pirate Reaches Final

ZigZag Pirate was just beaten in the Final of the Local Coursing Stake in Lixnaw. A great achievement by his trainer Batty "Sava" Heaphy who had some real problems like everyone else with this nervous dog.

YPOM Promise

YPOM finished third on Monday and stayed on very well to be beaten by just over one length. She will now trial over bends next Tuesday.

Make Your Mind Up

Its moving towards make your mind time up with Belle's pups in Northern Ireland. Three of the five really stand out. Both myself and Dave will do well to pick just one out.

YPOM Latest

YPOM is reported in good order following her run on Thursday night. She started very poorly again and despite running a very strong back straight was cut off when looking like she could trouble the dogs ahead of her.

She reappears in the same grade again tomorrow at 2.08pm, this time in Trap 2. Trap 2 should help her for sure but until she starts to come after from the taps better I was will only having a small interest on her.

After the run tomorrow Martin has indicated her being stepped up to 6 bends.

Pirate Flying

ZagZag Pirate is currently under the care of Batty "Sava" Heaphy in County Kerry.

After taking a time to settle he has been working well for Batty entered him for the Local Coursing Stake. In the first round he drew Mark Ryalls coursing bitch. This is like Portsmouth playing Saints!!

No worries about losing............Batty had the Pirate in A1 condition and he ran away to win by 5 lengths!!!!!!!

Barmy News

Gone Barmy was sunk in the first course of the day at Castleisland. Very frusrtrating considering he has been beating Trial Stakes winners at home on the gallop. He looks to have a couple of niggles following a trip to Galway to see the Vet. Hopefully we can get him fit for another outing.
