Rerun 86. FC OLD TOWNS ROUGH COUNTRY HAMMER DOWN QA2, “Trucker,” BLM, Bill Bailey

Bill and Trucker came to the line at 8:00 am

LF – Very nice mark on a long flyer!

RF – Trucker was locked in! He had a quick lick to his nose and he was on his way through the corn stubble – a brief hunt of one strip of stubble and then he bounded over to the next one and he found his bird.

LR – A loop left of the gunners – that extended right on the next pass and then he was on the bird.

RR – Nice line! Drove deep but recovered quickly to snatch his bird.
