That Irish Ruby mix looks terrific, but I would be too scared to feed it to mine.
I am just starting to train the champions up for the series beginning in about a month. So, I am taking some wheat and more peas out and adding some more maize. Not a lot more maize, they must be lean and fit and athletic to fly 65 miles very fast and trap like lightning.
The club boys had a race from the liberation point today, as a Melbourne fed raced from there today and they were offered a latter liberation. My good mate David had some in 1 hour and 15 minutes.
These things of mine fly that every day, usually in one spell, and are trapping beautifully. So I just need to give them a lot of very short tosses to make them 'jump and run' when they are released.
The feed looks very strange when compared to what we used to give them. The first impression is that it is mostly Safflower. It isn't, but with so few peas the feed looks very pale.
I am down to about 10% peas now, and by race time it will be about 5%.
Some one said to me that I had a good chance of winning a race if the wind was in my favour. I looked at him dead pan and told him I intend to win them all.

there's Rota virus about again, 
and a lot of them simply will not be good enough.
