Good to see him back in trap 6. Have to say after just checking the race card, i make him the outsider of the 6. Looks a real tough ask. My bets will be small, but lets hope Benny proves me wrong!

Will have my £2.00 win on him in the betting shop. Hopefully bright sunshine, and sunglasses at Hove tomorrow morning.

Very disappointing today. I thought he was still in touch until the third bend but then didn't kick on like usual.
Beautiful day down there - for the bookies and sunbathers.

I think a return to A4 wouldn't be a shock

4th place with a time 0f 30.63 is fine and a good sectional of 4.17, we have to remember he is still a puppy and running in A3, we are running against good seasoned dogs, keep the faith.

Your right Mark he is still young and learning all the time. I have no doubt he can win in A3 company but maybe just not yet. His trapping was superb again today, however i do think a drop in class to A4 looks on the cards. These dogs he is running against now are visibly sooooo much better than the middle grade dogs. I know thats stating the obvious!!!

I agree John back down a grade for a while to get some confidence back.

When we started this adventure I did not expect to be competing in A3 races in April,so racing in A4 grade is nothing to be ashamed of as he has already exceeded expectations.

I just wish I could see him run more often as the last few runs have clashed with work.
