BevLive: the Finals, Day Two

I was quite chuffed with Joe this morning. He ran quite well. A little cautious to lift and as usual pushed on a bit too much on the fetch, but overall a very good boy. He finished 8th in the preliminary round but ten points behind Lyle Lad’s leading score of 63. A lot of ground to make up since the winner will be determined by adding this score to tomorrow’s score.

Amanda and Dorey are in a much better position after a very pretty run that scored 159.

So the nursery final runs tomorrow for the 33 dogs that came out of the preliminary with the highest scores. Tomorrow is also the last day of qualifying for the open.

Today was very tough on the open field. There were only three really good scores with Ray Coapman’s 154 putting him on the top of the leader board. Hemp and I finally run tomorrow afternoon. I hope we haven’t waited too long. Been quite a while since poor Hemp has had any work.

It looked for a while on the open field as if the dogs just weren’t hearing well. I’ll sure know soon.
