Im travelling across to south wales for this one. Both dogs will be racing... in unders and in overs. Colts had a few runs at the lure, nothing too long maybe 125-150yds and im pleased to say there were no side-effects. still way early yet to assess if hell do aswell this year as previous years.
i can rest in the knowledge that he has nothing to prove and has won more gamefair races and shows on the uk mainland than any other irish lurcher.. ever ! it seems that theres a big target on his back this year so i hope for some good racing competition.
how ill know if his gracilis injury has wrecked his career will be evident in how he does later in the year. at the minute i dont expect him to win anything...hel be close i know that but winning is a far cry considering his injury. it seems dogs that do this lose a few lengths in a race.
i really dont think he`ll race around the bends again as thats what caused his left gracilis to tear trying to compensate for his right one torn last year !
hopefully Monmouth will be a training success more than anything else.
Chinas good to go too !
