The Runner up will also receive a sash donated by the ACTCA and a quilt made by Pam.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish all the competitors the best of luck and I am sure that Georgina Golle is looking forward to this appointment and the opportunity to test some of the best dogs in the country.

Congratulations to Joe and Blackie along with all the other place getters.

Congratulations to Joe and Blackie for your lovely win and to all the placegetters. It certainly looked to me that it was very close at the finish of Saturday. There was some lovely work out there on the weekend from everyone and a few hard luck stories too.

I know I had an enjoyable day on Saturday, even learning the finer art of gun stewarding, as Gareth and Jason put it

Well done to all.

Cheers

Congratulations to all place getters. I enjoyed watching the trial, some lovely dog work.

Oh Wayne, you should have let me know you wanted photos taken of your Charlie. You just know I would have loved to oblige

hi Joanne was only joking about the photo Charlie didnt last long enough for anyone to get ashot of him yes Prue i had the only GSP and what a shocker he bombed out on the very 1st run very disappointing but what agreat trial Georgina certainly spent the time and effort to put on great runs for the competitors not only that but made sure the spectators had magnificent views of the trial almost every run was clearly visable to the spectators as i said disappointed but enjoyed the trial anyway

Sorry Wayne, I didn't get any pics until the second run. Maybe next year there will be some pics of Charlie's sons though!
