Pleidenham Challenge Cup for Handler not having won an award in a FT or GWT
went to Neil Mullins
Although the morning was blighted by drizzly rain, spirits were high and the dogs were tested over a jump, a lake, in the wood, through hedge across gully to field beyond and a final crossing walkup in lovely reedy field, producing a worthy winner who dropped just two points and who went home with the winner's Cherryhurst trophy and Pleidenham Challenge cup for the best Handler not having won a previous award in FT or WT.
