Tomorrow is "Daphnes" first birthday. She is the litter sister of " Rooney "She had her first season back in June, and is still in the paddock. Today was such a perfect day that I decided to take her straight from the paddock, put a lead on her, and take her to Thurles for her first handslip. This girl had always been keen, so I didnt have any worries with her. She was perfect on the lead and in the car. I went to the infield and she watched 2 dogs go round, and then I took her to the third bend for her handslip. She chased like a good 'un. Looked in the box and went round it a few times, before I caught her and gave her a well deserved drink. So she had her first time out on a lead, her first ride in the car, and her first handslip, just a day before her first birtday. Perfect, I couldnt have been more pleased. " Daphne " was marked up today by Jim Ryan and weighed in at 58 pounds ( 26.36 kg )
