Mingo Creek County Park, Washington PA

Fletch: 2 turns, R90 L45. S10W10F@5. Short grass, steep hill, heavily contaminated (people, dogs, deer). Ran it fresh. He nailed it! Overshoots turns by about 6”. minimal head up behavior. Glanced at all the things going on and went back to work.

Gusto: Start w one turn, cross NV. Again, short grass, heavily contaminate. Outstanding start, struggled with turn. Handler perhaps wasn’t as patient as she teaches others to be. Found the second leg a bit up it, lovely NV work, back to V and nice article. More energy than I’ve had since surgery. He was very happy and ’proud’ of himself. Next, stair step in veg and done.
