A new venue, an interesting course, long and rising from handler's post. Sheep were good with the occasional trick to play, outrun a challenge most dogs handled well. Great day out once you have got across two fields to the right place...vans coped ok, inspite of the slopes, 4x4's better if weather wet.
Next Sunday, 2 Oct, Ryedale host a double Gather here at this venue.

Thanks to the Lancashire competitors who started us on time, kept us going, and had some very good runs between them. We were lucky with the weather, and the newly shorn hoggs were pretty good on the course and their usual awkward selves at the pen.

Many thanks to the Thompson Family of Pickering, who loan the field and the sheep each year, and Les Jones, who organises the trials.
The sheep worked well through out, challenges mainly came at the penning /shedding stage, they split happily into 1/3, but less so 2/2!
