THE USA National was won for the second time in two years by Ch Kerryarc Fast Cars (Tyler/Carson), with Irish judges Tim Finney and Kathleen Kelly giving him top awards in California and Texas respectively . I’ve heard he was on fine form and it was very much his day, so well done to his connections for bringing him back to take this prestigious award for a second time. -LIZ THORNTON
