Report. Well! It was a better day than Wednesday and could you tell – the distance between the hounds and the fondness for water – the pup trailer reported that the hounds were slaking their thirst at halfway and we all know a belly full of cold water and half a trail to run doesn’t mix.
It seems that Thorn Dancer wasn’t thirsty, nor perhaps the more prominent hounds, as last seasons bitch produce winner won easily and goes joint top of the senior championship..
The pups wasn’t much different as Wednesdays winner Jenny’s Aura won comfortably from Foxparke (do the ) Fandango with three newcomers in the tickets .
Stopping for a drink some 100 yards from the finish didn’t hinder Explores win in the Maidens as the rest of the challengers stopped as well. First in- first out -the saying goes and that applied aptly to Explore who won rather easily in the end from Lady Ann and Huntsman’s Jenny.
In the restricted trail and Dairy Lightning ,now under the guidance of Steve Riley, responded well to the whistle and call of the Steele family , shouting for the second and bounded clear to beat Free Spirit.
Ps . Nicola Napier’s ‘big white van’ is back on the road .It has passed its MOT. – How? answers on a postcard !
Thanks to Barbara for rescuing my trainer from the ‘bog’ I was hopping around like—— answers——.
To clear up a question – The trails at Oulton are Championship trails.
At the time of posting Huntsman’s Kraka is still at large.
