Well Done Peppermints today :thumbsup:

 

[June Jonigk]

Well done today my Peppermint Pals :thumbsup: Your dogs are all running so well. Shame Roxy got a bump in her final, she had been unbeaten going into the final - she has come on so much this year Perfection and Bobster were so close together in the semi and final, with Perfection just managing to hold on - Neil might get his revenge next week though with the race being that bit longer :teehee:

Unfortunately my programme wasn't complete, and some of the weights weren't there, so I won't add some without the others. We also had to have a shuffle round on the programme, as extra dogs had to be added. It was like a mini open today :teehee:

I won a cake in the raffle, which had been made by Angie Sawyer. I thought I'd just have a small piece when we got home, but that turned into two large slices!! :- It was delicious We have some brilliant cooks amongst us in whippet racing - with Angie and Gilly Harcombe's cake baking skills, we are very lucky indeed

See you all at Honeyhills next week :thumbsup:
