Labrador Club of WA - AA trial 31-3-2024

[Marilyn Dawson]

The Labrador Club of WA held its first trial of 2024 The Marie Ewen All Age Stake at Arthur River last Sunday 31st March. Whilst the lack of any recent rains made water access a struggle, we were fortunate to have a stunning cooler day with just 25degrees temperatures.'

Our thanks to Judge Eleanor Johnson and Chief Steward Ray Johnson, also to our stewards Mark, Ben, Sally, Allan and Annie. A special thanks as always to Ken the property owner and Ray for liaising with Ken for permission to camp and run the trial on the property.

Run one was a triple mark. The second run was a blind, walk-up mark and a second mark. Third run comprised a mark into water amongst decoys with a double Fall thrown as the dog left the firing point.

12 dogs were entered and 3 finishers.
