Sysi 2nd in the OAKS 

OAKS final was very much what we tought beforehand. Elbony Phapillon took the lead on the rail and was followed by Sysi, Cypress Night. This couple was quite outstanding. Phapillon 29.63 and Sysi 29.73 before 3rd Black Voodoo 30.54. Despite hard wind and rain Sysi bettered her personal record, so she's improving all the time.

Norris, Icetrick was a little disappointment in the Masters final with his time. Maybe we warmed him too much, because the previous race was moved when it started to rain so hard. Anyway he's triple Masters finalist and the only one in Finland. This year Masters was won by Black Dog before big favourite, Mr Moose.   

We got more 2nds with brothers Ritsa Rittenhouse and Zingo Maker's Mark.Zingo jumped out just moderate in the short distance and couldn't reach Blue Honcho. Ritsa had very tough race in 495 m with Grand Ruler. He lost only 1/100 second that race.  

One of the high lights was Major, Beyond The Stars in the veteranrace. He won it with best of the day 19.10. Some more races and he will break the track record!!

Sysi's first classic trophy.

Ritsa (6) tries to reach Grand Ruler.
