Coventry Marathon Final for Flossy

Trap 1 - in her old days that was always the dream draw but not sure it's essential for her nowadays - a clean break and a clean race and she has a good chance so hoping for the best and flying over on Saturday.

Puppy Oaks 1st round at Shelbourne

Trap 2 for Joyful on Saturday night - a good draw so fingers crossed!

No luck, the winner had flown and Joyful was squeezed up out of boxes.

Not sure where next with her?

Another win for Flossy at Coventry in Marathon Heats

Flossy is certainly firing on all cylinders now, John Mullins has her running at the top of her game showing she does not have to lead to win - very pleased with her and flight booked for trip to FINAL this weekend so fingers crossed for a clear run.

One of them night's

Joyful squeezed from the off in Tralee A2 Final but ran on well to be 2nd. Think she'd have won it with a clear run. Off to Shelbourne for a trial next week in readiness for the Puppy Oaks in 3 weeks time.

Flossy not out as well as can be and badly baulked at 1st bend at Romford could never recover. Back to Coventry for the Marathon competition in 2 weeks all being well.

That's the way it goes sometimes.
