Give her 700m at Richmond and see how she pulls up.

I gave her a full banana (I give the banana the day before a race to build up energy)with her breakfast this morning and an egg yoke. (I give that for extra protien) She was a little sore in the front O/S shoulder and N/S back leg muscle earlier in the week and she be ok tomorrow with that. I was just thinking to myself, that the little bit of wieght loss might have been something to do with her soreness. I'm just trying to grab at anything to justify that loss in wieght.
Anyway she is racing tomorrow at Dapto. Race 8 # 7.
I've also got my other dog Bess racing there as well Race 1 #4. She can't run out of sight on a dark night. But they might all be slower than her, who knows she might run a place or even better. Just slapped myself in the face to get back to reallity. Her name is Star Lifter.

coops weigh yourself first thing in the morning 2moro, you will also be lighter

its just genetics everything is lighter in the morning after a sleep

next time your at the track during a day meeting (lunch time start) look at all the dogs weight changes, you will see neally all are up or down .5...i even seen a couple up 1.4

Maybe she left you a .4kg surprise in your bed?

Might explain the smell

Good luck with her Coops!! Hope she begins like a bullet, pity she didn't draw the fence, I love quick beginners they give you a chance everytime!!! Nick is right about the weight issue to, I know how you feel though!! If she was 30kg you wouldn't worry so much, I reckon its because she's only small that its magnifying the issue for you mate. I love the Bannana and the egg yoke diet, always fed my dogs these, infact my bitch is due to whelp in a week and a half and thats what she gets for brekky 2-3 times a week along with wheatbix and milk!!
As long as 'The Bird' is healthy and happy she'll be doing her best, and I hope Bess does well also mate!!!

Thanks Gippy mate. yeah your right about the size issue. i hope see clears the boxes ok and get out of harms way. She is so lightley framed but she's got a huge heart. it's going to be very hard for her to come from behind over that short distance, but she'll be having a go i know that for a fact.

As you probably gather, i'm getting a bit nervous coz i keep rambling on.

LILY, IF EVER I NEED YOU IT'S NOW.
