Mo (Feral Helen) got knocked over at Manakau last week but seems to be OK. Hopefully wont be too affected by the tumble. Tom (Yeboah)won top heat sprint at Manakau today in 18.18 only 2 Lengths off the track record and the going was not the best. The next quickest time was 18.52!

At the kennels both Minnie and Ben are working well but Sam has split his scar tissue again and I will leave him for a while just walking him. If it goes again then he will be retired.

Mo at Manakau

Great to see Mo (Feral Helen ) Trap 7 run a good third at Manakau today. 

Pleased with her run for her new trainers James and Alysha.

Decided to sponsor a race.

Replay (3) Impersonator (2) Rick's Terra (5)

Facing a sharp rise in quality for this but has shown enough to compete. Hitting the line well in recent events and he needs looked at again here. He hasn't been that far away lately and now drops another level for this.

Qla 3,2 Tfa 3x2x5x6

Great to see Ray Casey and Rick's Terra take out this race because Ray has helped me out taking my dogs to the races and letting me use his gallop on numerous occasions. Well done Ray

Yeboah again!

Yeboah won his Top grade C5 at Manakau yesterday. He gave little Bright Star a head start and passed her on the bend to win going away in a time of 18.42. This takes his record to 21 starts and 15 wins with over $16,000 in prize money!!

Wairo Dee Jay ......get in

BOOM !  Was great to see Wairo Dee Jay start with a win for James and Alysha and new owner Tony Potts. Great result and even better with is fixed odds of $12!!

Today I have free galloped both Minnie and Sam separately. Minnie had the fun of coursing a Hare for a few seconds when it decided to appear as she was running in its direction!!

First post for a while!

Not been on the blog for 4 weeks because we have been to the UK and Europe for a break. We were lucky in that our House sitters had great knowledge of greyhounds and all the hounds were in great condition when we arrived back. They even gallop Minnie for us which was an absolute bonus.

Mo ( Feral Helen) ha now gone to the North Island to be trained by Alysha Steele and James Black. I am very hopeful that she will enjoy the change of scenery. Also at the same kennel is Wairo Dee Jay who has been bought by Tony Potts from the Conner Kennel in Southland.

Sam ( Feral Coaster ) has been on the easy list and I have just started working him again to see if the stopper pad holds up. If it does not he will be retired from racing which is massive shame. Ben ( Feral Poutini ) has been fostered out whilst we were away and looks in great Nick. He will be worked again but any signs of lameness and I will call it a day and look for a home for him. Apparently he was a superb house dog who became cat friendly with a bit of training!!
