[peppermint lady]

(w00t) what a brilliant day we had at the Indy, great weather, and company to match :thumbsup:

thrilled with our Peppermint Perfection, who ran fantastic all day, but her brother Peppermint Bobster gave her a run for her money in the final :sweating: :sweating: how close was that finish :- :- :-

massive well done to Summa Breeze on clocking up another win, also Sonny Jim, John and Elaine must be over the moon with him today :thumbsup: :thumbsup: he did you proud, as did Spud :wub:

both Mick and kaz had a brilliant day with both of their boys winning their finals, then to go on and take the supreme was just fantastic :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[June Jonigk]

It was a lovely friendly day, with lots of banter and gossip just as it should be :thumbsup: The track is looking good with its new fencing, and it was sooo funny to watch the sheep watching the racing through the fence. At one time one sheep walked up to the fence by the traps, and baaaaa'd as if to say "put me in a trap, and I'll show you how it's done!!!" I went up to it, but it soon scooted off :lol:

Well done to all the winnners and finalists, RCh Summa Breeze just keeps going and going, nothing can catch her, but I was impressed by Velvet Cocktail in the wee group, who all of a sudden is running out of her skin, it's a shame she seemed to miss the lure in the final, but well done Rob and Naomi, and with Mr Brightside winning the cons final.

Peppermint camp must still be on a high tonight, just a shame that Bobster and Perfection are in the same group a lot of the time. Well done Peppermints :thumbsup:

Karen and Mick must be so pleased with the way their boys are going, to win two main finals is just a bit greedy though guys :lol: and then to go on and win the Supreme. How did you decide which one to pull out? Nice to see you both again :thumbsup: and well done!

Sonny Jim was on form today too - well done John and Elaine :thumbsup:

Well done Gingeroo and Elgar too :thumbsup:

All in all a lovely day - thanks all at the Independent :thumbsup:

[naylorwhippets]

Thankyou all at the Indi for a great days racing. Lovely company & fab sunshine :thumbsup:

Congratulations to all winners & finalists :cheers:

Like June said so impressed with little Olive (Velvet Cocktail) :wub: such a close semi with Summa Breeze :sweating: Lovely to see our Dillon again :wub: Lots of kisses, but no wet legs this time :lol: Little Chance god love him, he's gorgeous :wub: So glad he's all better now Julie.

Last but not least thanks to Naomi & Rob for the tea & coffee. :thumbsup:

 

[KazM]

Had a great day everyone was fantastic. Thanks everybody for helping Mick and me on the day especially Julie for holding the Bears . A well done to everyone who made the finals and what great racing there was. June its lovely to be back and great seeing everyone again. We've got very red faces too! Didn't bring the sun block.

 

[Paula Roberts]

Well done everyone sounds like a great day with great weather to, 8) Elaine still hadnt come down to earth at 9 oclock last night, :lol: shame the champs are cancelled as some dogs seem to be finding there form at the moment.

Hope to see you all at the Northern on the 31st.

 

[mandyrfc]

Congratulations to all the Runners, Finalists and winners, looks like you all had a lovely day with great weather and good company ( just like it should be ) you have made us so jealous we wish we could have been there.

Well done :wub: Summa Breeze :wub: , Sonny Jim and both Catch and Chase the Bears, :wub: Peppermint Perfection :wub: ( so glad little :wub: Chance :wub: is better now Julie ) and of course the Whiphaven camp with 2 Supreme wins BRILLIANT.

And of course special mentions for Dave and Diane Naylor for :wub: Fizz Bomb :wub:s Cons Supreme win Hope Seth comes back soon he's been riddled with injury this year, and of course Rob and Naomi with little :wub: Velvet Cocktail :wub:

bet Dave and Diane had a tear in their eyes watching her run and Mr Brightsides consolation win. Also big well done to Black Bandit on making his Cons Final. And for Rob and Kays :wub: Macy making her Cons Final in her first ever Open and she even won her Semi Final wish you both all the luck in the world with her.

I agree with who ever said that it is a shame about the Champs being cancelled as some of the dogs yesterday must have been flying.

Hope to see you all again soon ...........Love Mandy ..............xxxx

Darcia, don't think twice about it, - we know you would have come if you could have. Just sorry we didn't get to see your boy run. We'll hold you to your offer for next September! :thumbsup:

Folks, Rob is working late at present so can't get to put any pics on yet, - we have a few of the finals that he'll add as soon as he can get round to it. Being so inept with the technology side I'm afraid I can't do much to help, - so you'll all just have to be patient!
