Drought Continues

2008 as yet to see any of my dogs enter the winner’s enclosure, no winners for a month!! Thought I’d do a quick round up of what I currently own. I have half the amount of dogs I did at the same time last year. I'll do the pups next time.

Here goes :-

Faraday - Trained by Lance Burford in Wombourne. Potentially one of the fastest I've owned. She has had a virus which she lost a chunk of weight. She trialed back last week but the time was rather disappointing. We hope to give her a few runs back to back at Coventry even if it’s in graded company so we can see what she can really do. We know she has pace to burn and the right attitude, she just needs to come away ok and she will be away and gone.

Avenue Guide - Bought cheaply out of Tralee from a coursing contact. Has done exactly what it said on the tin. Has won 5 races from 30 starts. He has really grown on us during the last few months and loves his Sunday morning chocolate buttons. However he will need to stop missing his break if he wants to get back in the winning groove.

Lisa's Invader - Was closing in on Comical Raffles 13 win record until he hurt his dew claw so has been off since mid December. Hopefully will have a come back sprint next week. I'm hopeful he will beat the record and may even reach the 100 race club if he can stay fit. Fingers crossed.

Zigzag Pirate and Positive Outlook were sold on during last year whilst Yourplaceormine returned to Kerry as she was on lease.
