2nd Hand Slip at Banteer

Second hand slip today at Banteer both found time as expected.

The Blu Bitch did middle 1510 (26 spots improvement) railed all way around chased hard.

The Black Bitch did middle 1495 (85 spots improvement) ran middle much better at bend than 1st time.

Will take to Curraheen in 2-3 weeks for qualifying trials.

Banteer trip succesful

Hand slipped in the end both chased hard and 1st bitch made a right horlicks of the first bend but chased all the way to the pick up so would think next time she'll handle the bend much better and find plenty on the clock. Middle split 15.80

The 2nd flew around, slightly hesitant at first bend but much better than 1st bitch chased hard and full of running at pick up, middle split 15.36

Don't think either will have any problems qualifying in May (that's the plan in any case)

Both mad for it so am well pleased and with Ballymac Floss pups always plenty to come with age.

Off to Banteer we go!

Doesn't seem that long since I picked the two Coconut bitches up from Liam but on Thursday taking them to Banteer for a trial so fingers crossed and hope the dreaming continues after those 18 seconds.

The Coconut Bitches now 10 months old

Coconut Slippers & Coconut Smuggler

Two new additions Kinloch Brae x Mallogs Penny

Two new black dog pups great breeding and Sean Drohan a very nice guy to deal with.

Picking them up from Youghal dog track on New Years Eve.

That's my quota for next year so fingers crossed we might have a good one amongst the 4 pups!

Happy New Year!
