Week ending 14th February 2010

Monday 7th
What a fantastic week this would turn out to be! We managed a total of 13 winners in all as our run of second's finally turned in to winners.
One of our best ever days today as we returned with 5 winners.
Sounds Classic got the ball rolling with her first career win. She led virtually from the start to win her A7 by a length in 29.81.
Twiglish Chav ran a fantastic race to come from 5th to win a decent A2 by a short head in 29.21. He stayed on very strongly to lead a mile at the pick up. He had always looked like a decent prospect and we were fairly excited about him after this run, unfortunately Chav was later to break his hock on Friday night and a return to racing is very much in the balance. A great shame for his owner who has been very patient as the dog was nursed through all his problems since arriving from Oxford. A real blow.
Beanos Shakira got off the mark with her first race win when winning her A4 in good style. She stayed on strongly to win a personal best 29.47.
Stanton Leroy notched up another win as he led all the way in his A3 to score in 29.66.
Moving Merry completed the day's 5 timer when leading all the way in her A2 to win a personal best 29.22.
Wednesday 10th
Another great night with 4 winners from our 6 runners.
Rackethall Kenny, who has been improving with every run, led all the way in his A5 to win by nearly 4 lengths in a personal best 29.69.
Slaneyside Molly pinged the lids and led all the way to win her A4 in 29.72.
Puerto Bound ran a superb race to win a decent A2 in good fashion. She led on the run in to score in a good 29.12 and was a mile clear at the drop.
Stanton Jerry completed the night's work with a trap to line success in the top heat. He never looked like getting beat and also won in 29.12.
Friday 12th
We were made to wait for our 2 winners today but they were certainly worth it!
Ballinorig Maeve, having only her second race in 6 months led every yard of the way to win her A2 in 28.97. It was a fantastic run considering the length of time she has been off and can only improve. She'll be heading to Henlow for a trial in preparation for a 550m race.
Stanton Denis made light of a bang at the first bend to go on and win his A2 by nearly 5 lengths in 29.49.
We also had 5 seconds throughout the day. Strictly Baileys was beaten just a length in his A3. Ling was denied by just a neck after being caught close home in her A3. Hell Razor ran another superb race when leading every where except the line in his A3. Galley Crash was the most unluckiest loser we'll ever have after slipping out of the boxes and being stopped in running no less than 3 times! She only went down in a photo and looks a likely winner next time if treated OK. Forest Crash recorded a personal best 29.21 in only his second race back from injury and ran with real credit. He was unlucky that a decent S1 bitch turned 2nd to him going in to the back straight.
Saturday 13th
Two winners and a second from our 7 runners tonight.
Stanton Buddy flew the boxes and led virtually all the way in his A1 to win in 29.06. His run was eclipsed by Moving Merry though, who ran the perfect race to win her decent A2 contest in good style. Merry pinged the lids and never looked like being beaten, she went on to win in 29.01, which was the fastest of the night. She has improved steadily over recent outings and as only a May 08 puppy looks destined for open class.
