Port fairy done and dusted

Pretty happy with all dog

Although Birdie was a little naughty she still got her cast

Lois Jean needs to move a little faster and we need to work on getting sheep of the fence without crossing

Eddie did a great cast to get him in the final for the novice but to steady in the second run. Operated error at the Maltese Cross cause one of the ewes to bolt and made it hard to get back

Ended up 3rd in novice and 5th in the improver

Marrar was also in the improver final but would not switch on and was more interested in the big sloppy sheep 💩 than actually working so I retired. She ended up 3rd in the improver. Her first run was good

Birdwood finished for me just sit back and watch the last few runs and the finals.

Please with all the dog

Eddie got a score in the improver but no where close to top score.

Marrar did amazing work at the bridge pushing the sheep backwards all the way. And even when they were hanging on the edge she kept going. Unfortunately they took of while I was standing at the pen and split. She crossed but did amazing work. Even the judge commented to me what good work it was

16/02/2026

Home after a week long trialling at Koroit. Weather was interesting from a pleasant arrival, to freezing by Monday and then coming home today to 40 degrees

Marrar had her best run for a while but ran out of steam at the pen and I retired

Eddie was far to steady in his first run nd crossed in his second when he got tangled up with sheep splitting

Birdie ended up crossing on both runs after delivery the sheep. Cast was a bit tight. More work needed

Lois Jean after being sick bounced back with two casts all be it a bit slow. Crossed after delivery on her first run and I retired at the gap on her second run .

Although in Victoria it was a NSW course. I do like the course as there is a delivery square and a long walk to the race.

Would love to see it offered in SA sometime

Home now busy week ahead with non dog related stuff
