Vicky, I am not into the show scene but I have come across similar lack of
sportsmanship and jealousy in other sports; I think sadly it is just a fact
of life: some people if they can't get the glory they crave by fair means
will use foul ones. I feel this is particularly mean to have taken
advantage of an "innocent". Warn your neice in future not to be so willing
to impart such information - difficult I would imagine when she must be so
proud of Derby's achievements. And remember, you can't keep a good dog down...
