As days go they don’t come much better than the Usk Valley working tests held at Clytha Park.
The sun shone all day and the competitors, helpers and spectators all enjoyed the social atmosphere, which has become the norm for an Usk Valley working test.
The club is indebted to Skinners Dog Food for their continued sponsorship and to host Sir Richard Hanbury-Tennison.
The tests were set by Tyrone ‘Sarge’ Axford and judged by Chris Brain, Frank Wright, Mike Hague, Brain Gregory and Hayden Wilmot.
The morning test winners & judges: Front Row: Chloe James, Harry Bridge, Charlotte Milner and Val Oakley; Middle Row: Vicky Prichard, Paul Hobbs, David Clarke, Lucy Mixture, Debbie Polley and Simon Hagain; Back Row: Hayden Wilmot, Chris Brain, John Mixture, Brain Gregory, Mike Hague and Frank Wright.
