Cockermouth show trails at Bridekirk Aug 3.
Report.: Observation, Fiona was starter and judge and a catcher.Bookies runner and raffle organiser.no wonder she had a glowing face at the end of the day .
The seniors and a nail-biting finish between Silver Dusk and Thorn Dancer,with the former winning by a head, the two championship contenders were soundly beaten back in fifth and seventh place. The senior maidens and four on the finish and the favourite Escape held on to beat Some Lad and the fast closing Foxparke Just Got It in third.
The puppy trail was a disappointment as only two completed the course. Somebody contacted the scout to ask a question, “couldn’t see a thing due to torrential rain” A mile away the “heavens had opened ” and in the words of Dave Studhome ” Me car was floating through spatri” Tilly Trotter and Kinniside Sam sorted it out and Tilly was no longer a non- winner and maiden. The pup maidens made a better job and not before time Dan got his head in front to beat Lillian . finally and in gloomy weather the veteran Aspire came from third to beat Tommy’s and Ladybird.. we will find out how the show went when we see the rest of the committee..
