RESULTS OF SPANIEL TRIALS 2013

ESS Open Trial held at Sedbury, Nr Chepstow on 28th October 2013

Winner, Mr E Smith & Judges	Award Winners & Judges

Usk Valley held their ESS Open on Monday, 28th October, at the Riverside Shoot by kind permission of Mr Colin Markey.  The judges for the day were Mr Roger Tozer and Mr Wayne Lewis.

The day started off with a full card, but due to bad weather leading up to the day of the trial we were unable to use any cars, so we all had a bit of a walk! 

The trial started off in a small woodland, and the dogs were soon amongst the birds.  We then made our way down to the cover crop, which was the undoing of several dogs due to them not finding their retrieve; indeed two dogs were eye-wiped by the judges when they found a bird that both dogs had been tried on.

We were then taken into the woods where the dogs were given every chance to show what they could do, with some nice hunting and retrieving on show.

After making up their books, the judges then declared the trial over.  Congratulations to the winner, Eric Smith, who also made his dog up to Field Trial Champion following his win!

We would like to say a huge thank you to our sponsors Skinner's, the judges, and to everyone that helped on the day.

AV Spaniel Novice Trial held at Sedbury, Nr Chepstow on 12th October 2013

Award Winners & Judges

 
The trial started off with dogs in roots; this proved difficult for a lot of the dogs with only a handful of dogs on the right hand side going through to the second round.

For the second round we moved into woodland and the eight remaining dogs all came into their own, each hunting with drive and style; No.13 backing up her first run with another good second round.  When each dog had completed their second round, the judges closed their books and the trial was declared over.  The winner was announced and also Guns' Choice went to No.13, a very worthy winner, especially considering she had a steel plate and pins in one of her legs; a fantastic achievement!

RESULTS OF SPANIEL TRIALS 2012

 

Novice Trial held at The Riverside Shoot on 10th October 2012

    Winner  Mr G Devine-Jones

The day started fine and dry and with a full card.  It was not long before the dogs were amongst the birds, and this proved to be the undoing of some of the less experienced dogs, however it was soon clear that the standard was going to be very high with dogs working the woods and cover on this excellent ground with both drive and style.  With game  in abundance, both judges gave the dogs a chance to shine, and they did not disappoint as nine awards were given out.

Summing up at the end of the trial, A panel judge Ben Randell said that he had waited a very long time to judge a dog like the winner.  He also said that it had been one of the best novice trials he had judged, which is a testament I think to the standard of British gundogs in general.

Open Trial held at the Riverside Shoot on 24th October 2012

The Winner, Mr J Organ with Judges            Tony Gill & Paul Wilson

The Usk Valley held its Open Field Trial at the Riverside Shoot, and with all the rain that we have had recently, it was very nice indeed to have a dry day.

We started off in the woods, and the dogs were soon amongst the birds.  It soon became clear that choosing the winner would be no easy task due to the high standard of the dogs.  However, the judges, Paul Wilson and Tony Gill, gave each of the dogs a chance to show what they could do, and so at the end of the trial they were able to be chose a winner with no need for a run-off.
