From Virginia Harry & the CSJ Agility Open Team
And the action starts again…
This afternoon’s CSJ Agility Open course plans. Notice the very tricky weave entries in both classes. In fact, the entry looks easier on paper in the Pent Jumping 2. In fact, the dogs have to make quite an adjustment after the tunnel to get in the correct weave. Of course, some are making it look very easy.
Two more clears for young Steve! This time in the CSJ Championship Jumping Round 1. Currently lying in 3rd with Digit and 6th with Future, whose round is posted below.

So… in the Biathlon there’s a jumping and an agility round and the scores from the two are added together. A very unlucky pole from Digit put them in 8th place, with 6 clears above them, so all is not lost if they excel in the agility – and others don’t, of course! Here’s their run. Future crashed a jump and Steven Richardson wisely retired her.

Some very nice distance work from Hayley Laches and Atom…
Hayley & Atom, Pent Jumping 2, CSJ Agility Open
The vast majority of people still run with their dogs and I have no doubt that the ability to get in place on a course by running like a gazelle being chased by a rabid lion puts our top handlers where they are today. Trying to run a dog at a distance, over courses as tricky as these, is extremely brave, so massive respect to Hayley for sticking to her criteria in this Pent Jumping 2 run. She takes full responsibility for putting Atom over the wrong jump! 🙂

Tonight’s Steeplechase Final course plan.
The courses here at The CSJ Agility Open demand top level skills from dog and handler (@!**!#) difficult, in other words!) but of course there are always handlers who make you wonder what all the fuss was about. One such handler is Sarah Millwood (I hope you don’t mind my posting, Sarah!) with her dog Phaze. And as you can see, I had a bird’s eye view of her run. So many dogs are going from the weaves into the tunnel – it’s very close – so props to anyone who didn’t get eliminated there!

Rather annoying refusal for Steve and Digit in an otherwise flawless Pentathlon Jumping 2.
