BevLive: Slash J, Day Two

Very tough day of trialing , at least for me. Robin French, Amanda and Joni all had very nice morning runs and I think ended up 1, 2, 3. Tom and Sly had a good afternoon run when it appeared hopeless, and indeed was for me, to also place. I’m sorry I don’t have the full placings, I think Dennis Gellings and Jan were in there as well but I’m not sure.

It was a little windy which didn’t help the work but on the outruns it was mainly a case of visible cows and invisible sheep. The sheep got very persistent to the exhaust as the day wore on and Hemp at least couldn’t make the turn. Many teams DQed at the turn, pen and shed even if they had reasonable trips around when the sheep just wouldn’t give it up.

A very tough day. Being the wild optimists we all are the lucky fifteen of us who are in the double lift hope for a better outcome tomorrow. I’m up fifth with Hemp and very glad for the chance.
