I will give you all a run down of the race in the next  couple of weeks,
Breifly, The dog's did great , I made lots of mistakes. I had to drop Frank, Earl, and Calvin- as well as you all read earlier, Lena is out for a while They are hard to replace. Having said that with the team being mostly comprisd of 2-3 year olds, We'll be ready for next year.
Black dog , Dobie and Edenei were no maintainance at all. feed and bootie. Dobie is a Peppy son, and is the closest that I have seen to his personality.I hope he becomes even margially great as Peppy is. Also of note, Maynard and Dobie are brothers and both finished with me, so there are some good genetics there.
Now that the race is over, I am sick- fever, achy probably the flu.  As I said, I will write more later about the race.
