Newcastle GM Ian Walton was delighted when the 36 runner ARC Northern Puppy Derby reached its 36 runner limit. Big name entries include the highly rated Links Maverick and the BGBF British Bred Puppy Derby winner Watchhall Sid.
Walton said: “There are some really nice dogs in there. If we end up with dogs of the calibre of last year’s finalists (Mickys Barrett, Havana Bale Out, Freedom Alibi, Innfield Trojan, Blackhouse Harry, Havana Robusto) we’ll be more than happy.”
