SMUDGE WINS INAUGURAL TERRIER DERBY
The Omni Terrier Derby, run on the actual Derby course as part of the annual Epsom Trainers Open Day, was a great success with over 40 barking lunatic terriers competing for the coveted prize.

Having powered his way through heats, quarter and semi-finals, Smudge simply blitzed the field.

CLAIMS of FIX
By the time of the final, bookmaker Des Gleason, faced with hefty liabilities from the growing band of Smudge supporters, cried enough and packed up his “joint” in disgust.

Between mutterings of “it’s supposed to be for charity” he had the temerity to suggest that the event was fixed.

I ask you, how could anybody possibly fix a terrier race?
