Mars (Redbrick Mars)

born Oct 21

Very quiet and unsure. Needs someone understanding to bring him out of his shell. Mars will find his way with the right family. Last saw a track in earnest Oct 23.

Unfortunately, we don’t have any more photos of him, and not a great deal more to say other than Mars could probably live as an only dog or with a female hound.  He’s been kennelled on his own since Elsa left and has been doing OK.  He’s a very nice boy who again has been easy to walk.

Dolly (Kilrue Dolly)

born June 22

Her career in the noble profession, for which she was bred lasted 104 days. We think the 18 lengths trouncing might have something to do with it. Her connections headed to the bar.

Dolly doesn’t care. Life is great. Terrific. Look at me. Another tiny girl, looking for her sofa. Everyone loves her and there will be some tears when she goes.

Twenty wins, and was in the van with the boys last night at Towcester. Bonnie came in last but didn’t disgrace herself as she is a pro!  She’ll forge ahead next time and dazzle all the boys, you’ll see. All they will see is her backside. A straightforward lady in the kennel, who can be relied on to get on with her mate. A godsend to any trainer (and rescue).

There won’t be a dry eye in the house when Bonnie goes off to her family but her trainer would rather make it sooner than later. At four years old, Bonnie owes the game nothing and her connections would like to see her finish in one piece. They will miss her though.

Will (Chasing Williebe)

born Sept 21

A lovely friendly sort of lemon, who is great with his kennel mates. Loves everyone.  He forgot to pack the talent he had shown in Ireland and hasn’t troubled the judges at Doncaster.  Last spotted at said track from some distance away, back in November 24.

In short, his career leaves much to be desired! So what, even champions have to hang up their muzzles at some point and he does have eight wins to brag about.

Medium size dog who should be on his own sofa now. No-one has looked at him twice.

Hugo

What a cracking little chap. He has been on an adventure lately, he found them completely over-rated  and they make you late for dinner!

Thankfully, someone cared enough to ensure his safety and he travelled North yesterday. Hugo has settled in nicely, thank you very much and is bunking up with Ada. He is housetrained, having bed and breakfasted at a volunteers for a couple of nights so he has tasted the milk of human kindness at some point.

Hugo is five years old and needs to get back on a sofa asap. We suspect we will miss him as he is quite a charmer. Even Bob allowed him on the sacred chair.

A define no with cats.

Ring Deb.

Duchess (Flashing Duchess)

born August 23

There is a rumour that her mother is out looking for her to come in for tea. Just turned two and already out of the game. Cheeky, full of confidence and walks like a supermodel.  Duchess made the mistake of winning first time out and her connections got excited. The tiny minx soon wised up and was benched five races later.

Bravo Duchess, bravo.
