Pre-trial?

[Sandy Langan]

I agree since we don't run it in VT it's hard to get very many runs. Sandy

Are the pre-trial runs done using the "double run" format or is it a different course between Rounds 1 and 2?

Same course

I know I asked this a few weeks ago but... are there still runs available?

Will NATCH rosettes be awarded at the Pre-trial and Side Runs?

Yup!

Oh yay!!!!  Good to know,  just in case.   😉

At a regular weekend trial you can run your dog either skilled or proficient, but you must pick one for the whole weekend.  Is this the same as the pre-trial and champs?  Could I enter my dog as skilled in the pre-trial so as to not work him too hard and run him as proficient in the main event?

Will there be an opportunity to do "day of" entries if space is available?

It is technically two different shows.   So that would be allowed.

We wouldn't be able to do same day entries.  But if you came on Tuesday and wanted to enter something on Wednesday we could do that.
There are just too many runs and too much to coordinate to be adding runs on the same day

Is the run order pretty much set at this point? I am thinking about entering the Tunnelers runs on Tuesday (my girl LOVES her tunnels), but will be driving in that morning and want to make sure that it is still the last class. I know that Chris mentioned at the end of May that it could change depending on the number of entries.

Also, is it possible to find out approximately how many runs (total) are there for Tuesday and Wednesday?

Thanks!

Yup at this point it'll be staying the same

Right now we've got around 700 runs for Tuesday and 900 runs for Wednesday.   So we will be running two rings at the same time to speed things up a bit.

I'll explain in a later post how we're going to make that work so no conflicts happen
