Report;  The weather nippy and windy on the hill ,warm and pleasant on the show field- who would be a weather forecaster!

At halfway in the seniors and leading the way were ‘Arnie’ and ‘Grace’ just in front of a group of four, incidentally these were the first six over the line.

As you are aware the finish for the show trail is at the end of the trod whereas the ‘leaps ‘ finish goes to the end of the showfield. This has a marked effect on the results as the trod tends to be ‘first in wins’ and ‘Arnie’was in the trod first .

So to confound that theory Thorn Dancer led in the pups and Daisy Dream somehow passed her , and then upholding the situation ‘Dancer ‘then had to settle for second after running into ‘Daisy ‘ just before the line. Persian Prince and Bluebond had a similar battle for third and fourth . That was her twelfth  win of the season and now three wins separate the first four in the championship.

The biggest field of the day ,32 open maidens and the saying ‘ the bigger the field the bigger the certainty’ well,- priced at a prohibitive 2/1 on -Bedazzled lived up to her name winning comfortably from the rest ,who finished in a line led by High Stile.

Just ten runners in the final event and JLS took the honours with an easy win from ‘ Bessy’  these two were  clear of the third Howgill Blondie.
