Report:  The weather relented, the field was still sodden but what’s more to the point is- we were in business- . And a chance for Huntsman’s Major to make up ground on Miterdale’s three win cushion in the puppy championship, but, not if Black legend has his way , he led until the last obstacle and after falling and hindering “Major” still led on the run-in only to be passed by Rio with “Major” back in third.

As well, the senior championship is still in abeyance with Endure sidelined on 17 Jenny’s Aura needs 4 wins to take the title, perhaps, now , a task to big , but not impossible and that’s what will make an intriguing finale to the 2017 season , the final say might lie with the weather!

As for the seniors at Dearham, a surprise win for Liz , her second of the season, which put a smile on the bookies faces, she  beat Quiet Otter and SIlver Dusk and the dreaded “water jump”.

The other three trails went to form with wins for Meadow Josie, Cracking Gold and Westgate Belle.
