Latest News

Tuesday 23rd Feb
Skippy came back on to the racing strength on Tuesday at Addington. Drawn in Trap 6 again she was trying the 4 bend distance for the first time. Quickly in to stride she got a nice run to the bend but was checked off the second bend by the three dog. This put her back to Fourth and she maintained a strong gallop to finish a 6 length 4th.Pleasinf performance for her first run over the trip.

Thursday 25th Feb

Straight in to the van down to Southland, to be honest she would have been better to stay in the van has she ran a very disappointing last.

Whats happening?

Not alot to report on with Skippy.She is having a well earned break after a few quick runs. Seems to be enjoying it and is well in herself and growing up at Supreme Kennels.
Poor old Maggie had a little altercation with a Seal but after a nip from a big seal she had second thoughts about any more action to take and ran back and decided a stick was more fun!! She has also been to the vets and been fixed so anybody who was hoping to breed a Derby winner from her i am sorry it aint going to happen. She came out of the Op well and already after 3 days is back to her old self digging in the run and draging her bedding outside!
Litter brothers and sisters are starting to run and will be followed over the next few months with interest.

Updates

Not a lot to report on lately,Skippy is resting and Maggie is trying to be decaterized at home. Shes been to the beach and will post photos lately.
