The South Atlantic Association held their First Annual Licensed Trial at the Peninsula Beagle Club. Thanks to the Peninsula Beagle club for hosting the trial which was originally scheduled to be run at the Maryland Beagle Club. Peninsula's grounds were in great shape with plenty of rabbits.
Three hounds finished their Championships during the trial. Carhart's Lady Sophia, owned by Ewing Carhart and Melvin work and handled by Euwie; Locust Valley Sami, owned and handled by Guy Lefever; and B K Royal Line Bolivia, owned and handled by Wayne Eldreth. Congratulations to the owners.
Thanks to the judges, owners, gallery and anyone else who helped make the first trial a success.
The South Atlantic Derby Winners Stake will be hosted by the Potapsco ridge beagle club in April.
