The first Novice & Restricted stakes for the year were held by the Retrieving Club on 17 th April at Katrine Road, Northam. A warm, humid day with an occasional light shower made conditions quite unpleasant. Dog work was on the whole, exciting to watch, with some testing retrieves, particularly in restricted. Thank you to Ray Johnson, Anne Cameron, Judy Pannett and Kerry Webster for working during the day.
