I have to get excited about that.
5 more maiden winners this week including twice the Ando's at the gardens tonight in near best of night so far.
Privelege to have paul Bartolo put his first bitch to banjo boy Along with everyone else of course. Lots happening and some fantastic recognition from the most respected breeders.
And then BIG FLOOD tonight a few minutes ago. He reminded me so much of his dad blistering through the turn and down the back.
.20 quicker than Dundee osprey and beat Buck forty by plenty. Good luck for the final des and the boys. I am more nervous than you and love watching that display.
Best to all. Time for a scotch (thanks Scott jury) to settle down.
And all this with just on twenty litters over two and 110 to come.....I am sure there will be many more wonderful moments to come.

He's going great guns. I'm sure over the next 6-12 months there will be a few more nice ones hitting the track.

Andrew, just letting you know that my little bitch TAHLO has come on season today. She will be going to Banjo Boy very soon my friend.....soooo bloody excited.
Tahlo won 13 of her 56 starts with 20 placings and she had the distinct disadvantage of starting her career with a trainer who had absolutely no idea what he was doing. She won 5 times over the 731m and 3 times over the 600m at Angle Park. Also 4 times over the 643m at Gawler and once over 531m.
And I love the testmating. CLICK HERE Wooohooooo bring it on.....

Well done andrew you really deserve everything, you have looked after the small breeder to the big breeder and keep his price very low and now the results are coming , he will earn his price rise in future and im sure everyone will not forget how good of a stud keeper ur been to greyhound participants cheers Toby

I have high hopes for the litter I bred to Banjo Boy (Thanks so much, Andrew, for your help! You're a top bloke :-) ) as the dam is from my foundation brood who has the same damline as Big Flood.
My pups are now 14 months old and soon to be broken in, fingers crossed the litter will have a few Big Floods in it!
This is my litter CLICK HERE This is Big Flood's pedigree
CLICK HERE Both Donington Flyer (dam of my brood Stand Up Nice) and Maria McPherson (Big Flood's damline) are litter sisters. A long way back but I've always believed in this damline and bred each generation from it :-)
I actually still have Stand Up Nice's daughter Venus Express here with me, she will be 14 years old this year. Unfortunately I tragically lost my beautiful Will Cee last year to a horrible mystery illness (spent 2 weeks fighting for life at the vets before succumbing) so this is the only litter she has :-(

Hi Jamie and Enzo, very excited to have these girls go to Banjo Boy. Both very well credentialed and lots to look forward to.
Thanks for the nice words Liane. I have my fingers crossed that all your efforts, hard work, time and investment is rewarded with some good breakins as the first step and ultimately race dogs.
Best to all.
Andrew

Congrats to Gavin Lowe with his bitch bikini cloud winning her heat of the vince curry. Was an excellent run in very good time and strong on the line. Fingers crossed for the semi final.
And to the other 4 maiden winners since Friday including two nice winners at Healesville and a couple of good runs by big floods litter mates at sale today.
Nice to see maidens winning in good style.

We have just finished mating my bitch "Cash Rules" to Banjo Boy.
There are so many nicks in the mating we could not look past which have already worked with his current offspring particurly Big Flood, High Eden Snow.
She has in her pedigree - El Grand Senor, Black Shiraz, The Double up of Solve The Puzzle.
If the mating don't work I'm not sure what will.

Hi Richard. We are locked into a shipment in April. I have no idea where they are going yet or who will look after them but will advise closer. Would be super if you used him. Best Andrew

Absolutely, looks a nice bitch who beat a pretty handy looking dog. A big bonus for Banjo Boy is that when he clicks with a bitch you seem to get a good litter which is so important these days.
Do you have questions about breeding theories?
