Report. An explanation of what went wrong , apart from the minor scales that happen eg, the senior maidens circled just before they showed after 20 mins so those that showed first were in fact last and vice-versa the last should have been in front.

The leading pups ran on crossing the lane, some righted themselves some didn’t but the main concern was what happened in the last two trails, although unproven but very likely in the circumstances is that – the puppy trailers had to walk to the split one of them had already laid a trail and knowing where they walked , the conclusion is – that they joined up the outgoing and incoming trails, the only thing is why? didn’t the other short trails do likewise.
