sapper756 Posted July 15, 2012 Author Report Posted July 15, 2012 Howz the preparations going with your Clermont candidates, with only 3 days to go before basketting? My 4 candidates had their final training toss this morning, and a bath this afternoon, now it is simply flying around the loft for them.
JohnQuinn Posted July 16, 2012 Report Posted July 16, 2012 Well until tonight i wasn't going but the 2 cocks i had away at Carentan are bouncing so i'll give them a toss tomorrow and send them on Wednesday night. Its a LONG WINTER and this is last chance saloon so i might as well have a go. The Forecast for the weekend is good too so we might just get a good steady race for the first time this season.
Rooster J. Cogburn Posted July 16, 2012 Report Posted July 16, 2012 gave them their last toss today,will leave them be now and decide whats going on Wednesday
