A very different "test" as it was organised to replicate a shooting day as far as possible but with cold game. As a shoot is run on this lovely ground, care was taken to arrange the birds to fall exactly where they do on the shoot day, commencing with a walk-up in knee high sorghum which many found quite a challenge. However our winning dog was a clear 7 points in front of the field, dropping only two marks so proving it could be done very successfully. What a lovely day with three varieties of retriever represented. Well done all.
