    I was hoping with the amount of RTF'rs at this trial we might have hour by hour updates? I figured the updates early in the day would be more accurate than the ones made later at night?(RITA) Just a thought!

    If I recall correctly, the cell phone coverage out at Scott's ranch is spotty at best. I remember having to stand on top of a dog truck to get one "bar" of coverage with Sprint.

    Don't know the placements, but 5 dogs out of 21 did the last series in the derby.

    Actually it was 6 that finished.

    Mark Edwards 1st with Dealer (28 derby points)
    Mary Tatum 2nd with Buddy
    3rd, Avant???? Not sure. The rita machine is working fine.
    4th, Sharon Gierman
    RJ Me with NutCase (Piper) That's 3 finishes in 4 starts for the baby girl.
    JAM Avant????

    All challenging marks in the derby. Very tough, but fair to the pups.

    Open and Am are brutal. 32 dogs in the Open picked up the chickens, at least one with a handle. 24 called back to the land blind out of 93 dogs that started. A few, including RouxBaby, picked up the birds without a handle and were not called back.

    About 53 dogs have run the AM, only a handful have done it well; a total of about 10 have done it at all. It is just a double with a long retired flyer, then a short (130 yd) retired bird. No off the marks and run the blind. Marks are kicking their butts.

    Starting to drizzle north of the Red River. I get to run the AM in the morning. Lucky me.

    Amateur call backs after the 1st series, 12 of 80 dogs:
    5,10,12,22,25,27,35,43,58,60,61,67.

    Open dogs called back to water marks, 10 dogs:
    3,4,7,9,14,39,50,59,65,85.

    Don't know anything about the Qual.

    The dog that took third in the Derby was Tia, owned by Suzan Caire and handled by Clint Avant (clarification of an earlier post).
    "Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men." Sir Winston Churchill 1899, The River War.
