The Northern Open was run over a distance of 170yds (back dog) in what can only be described as gloriouse sunshine,

a sligtly smaller turn out than expected for the Open due to the 3rd Champs being the week after also at the Northern.

A big thank you to all those who helped out on the Day especialy Adrian Hardiman who never stopped helping all week.

Congratulations on what sounds a great open Mark. Those are cracking times you must have got the track in really good nick.

Just for the record 9.64 over 170 = 17.63 yds per sec. is that some kind of record for a ped?

Are your times back to scratch?

 

[Mark Roberts]

Hi Terry & Michelle

                       When we set up for the Open only the 32lb dog (scratch dog) runs the full 170yds, the ground is marked out in 1lb wieght marks so all the dogs run from their weight markers.

The times were quite good, the ground was in near perfect condition, after being re-seeded and rolled several times by the council in the weeks running up to the Open/Champs.

quite a few of the race bred pedigrees are now starting to post realy good times.

times that we give out are as they crossed the line and not back to scratch.
