A good month for us with 8 winners :)
Lucy and Teddy the pick of the bunch.
June hopefully will be the same and looking forward to see Shelley and Russ in full flow again and hopefully Polar breaking his duck ;)
Puppy Dan went to Ireland to continue his rearing and Janey has found a new home :)
May Dog Of The Month -- LUCY just shades it with 3 wins from 6 starts.
Been a busy start to June already and will be updated after Saturdays runners.
Well done to Loyal Honcho on a great win in this years Greyhound Derby, a deserved success for the Grahams after going so close in the past.
The Epsom Derby takes place in a few hours and i fancy New Approach to taste Classic Glory for the Bolger team.
NFL Tickets for the October Wembley game between the New Orleans Saints and the San Diego Chargers went on sale late in May and Simon and I will be there again to see the action :)
Euro 2008 starts tonight, with no home nations in attendance it will be very different but the football should still be good with many of the top Premiership players out there.
A boring tip but i fancy the Germans to win it with Spain taking the runners up spot.
GL + Thx

April Stats and Comments
Six Winners from 34 runners in April, latest comments
(year to date)
Belle (1/13) On seasonal rest at present.
Betty (3/8) 3 runs in A5, winning Once, KO'd in first attempt at A4 has trialled back in.
Fivo (2/13) 3 runs at A2 level without success.
Janey (3/9) Gone to RGT on 28th, looking for a loving new home.
Lucy (2/13) 3 runs in A4 and trialled in over 6 bends.
Lulu (3/14) Won twice this month A6+A5 from 4 starts, benefitted from the rest.
Marvin (4/20) no wins from 4 starts in an eventful month, graded back on after latest tumble.
Russ (1/15) 2 starts in A1 early on, he is having a well deserved break, been on the go non stop since we had him, 73 runs already.
Teddy (2/20) 6 starts over 4+6 bends in April, winning on his lastest run in a 645 Hcap.
Tom (3/15) Our busiest racer with 2 wins from 7 starts. Winning at A3+A2 level.
Shelley (0/6) Just the one run in A7 after coming back from season.
Polar (0/0) Has graded on and awaiting first race, probably go in around A2.
April - 6/34
Year - 24/151
April Dog Of The Month - Tom (2/7) and up to A1
Looking forward to May with Polar having his first run, Lucy tackling 6 bends, Russ coming back and Shelley fully back from season.
I will be watching a couple of Hounds with interest in their careers in England which will start shortly. Their names are Longrange Jewel and Pats Boss.
Also sometime in May puppy Dan should be off to Ireland to continue his progress.
Lucy and Betty kick off our May runners tonight, Tom runs Tomorrow.
The 2008 Greyhound Derby gets underway at Wimbledon tonight.
The first round will be run over the the next 2 nights, not as many entries this year but it looks like quality all the way with plenty fancying their chances.
My early two against the field are Catunda Harry and Farloe Black !!!!
Had a really good April at the tables. Only played about 8 days in total, 1 Win and 8 FTs from about 20 mtts was a great effort :)
The football season concludes in May and there is still loads to play for.
Villa still have an outside chance of making 5th in the Premiership after our recent good run.
The Baggies are guaranteed promotion but still have the Title to win.
Man U + Chelsea are tied on pts at the top and have set up a mouth watering trip to Moscow where they meet in the Champions League Final.
Relegation battles aplenty to be decided over the coming weeks.
In Scotland, the Auld Firm still have the Title to play for and Rangers will travel to Manchester after booking their place in the Uefa Cup Final, they will take on Zenit St Petersburg (what price would that have been at the start)
Finally NFL is back on the agenda, the Draft has taken place and tickets go on sale for the Wembley October game sometime in May.
Thx and GL
