I'm still in St Kitts, West Indies and as you can see from the photos the track is almost built.

Things are also in full flight around the tracks with the dogs.

2 of the Ladies from the Hondo Black - Thats Racing litter have won a couple from their first few races at Hove and look very promising for the future.

There are another 2 about to start racing there.

The 2 dogs are still in Ireland at the farm but have had their qualifying trial and look quite nice. Big dogs though so they will need time.

Bangor Shirley was sent off to Dave's Mentor the other day and we will be hopping she takes and we get another Kylegrove Top.

Report from his corner are he will be starting his come back trials shortly after his winter rest. It looks like the Scottish Derby will be his first target, we all wish him luck.

The Sonic Flight - Patterdale Cathy litter have just started schooling and Roy says they are the best pups he's had through his hands at this stage of the game. He was sad to see Hawk go off to Kent but wishes Einer all the best with him.

So, all in all it looks like a nice start to 2007 and if we can match the success of 2006 that came via Top, Bullet, Flight and Brave Mentor it would be fantastic.

If anyone wants to know more about the other 2 at Hove please contact Claude Gardener at the kennels, I'm sure he will fill you in. They might be bought at a "Fair" price if you act quickly.

If you are planning a holiday anywhere this year i can highly recommend St Kitts and if you need to get booked let me know.

All the best for this month from the sunny Caribbean
