Skippy boxed quite well going in to the 1st bend lying 2nd. She could not quite beat the 3 dog into the bend and like a typical puppy checked on the back legs of the dog. The 6 dog had already gone by this time and well on the way to victory scoring in 17.59.Skippy checked wide and lost momentum at the bend and ran on to finished 6th. Typical pups run and hopefully the experience will do her good for future races.
