Hi Trent. They look good on lots of counts. Good luck mate. Stay in touch love to know what you think of the pups once you get them. Roland seems happy. He seems to be throwing big litters. 4 litters so far landed and baring a few issues at birth there were 9 plus pups in three of them. I know my two bitches look big.

Paris Valentino has just whelped a nice healthy litter of 2 dogs and 3 bitches. All pups over 600grams (biggest pup 690 grams) and all long and well conditioned. Much like reports of others. Very excited about this litters prospects being beautifully bred out of a Where's Pedro x Casey's Angel bitch.

Is there any vets in Qld stocking Banjo Boy? If he threw his strength & race traits into his pups he'd be a successful sire around a track like Albion Park don't you think?

I know there's some at Northern Rivers which is who I and a lot of Qlders use for inseminations. Love to have one like him, can show early speed and runs the 500 right out. I love the chase he seems to have inherited from his father as much as anything.

G'day Glen
There are a few straws at Laidely and to Doug's point at Liz Brown's.
We have been limited in sending them around to some degree as we are still trying to combine racing and stud duties and therefore don't have oodles of straws to send everywhere.
However as most can attest, if anyone wants one we pretty much can deliver with a few days notice to most places, WA a bit harder.
Cheers
Andrew

Zoenah's entity, beautifully bred Mogambo bitch, sister to Evie's entity and 9 time city winner last night whelped 4 dogs and 5 very healthy pups to banjo boy. Mum did a great job for her first litter. Very excited about these pups which are a reverse of the successful offspringer x Mogambo and vee man x girl aloud matings both of which have produced very fast dogs including grandeur, sweet it is, echelon, Alex's entity and Darcy's entity to name a few.
Thanks again to Mick Barry for selling her to me.

Gday Andrew
How many litters is that on the ground now for Banjo Boy. I think Ive counted 15 or so is that right. By my calculation he should have around 100 pups on the ground aswell. Certainly gone very well in his first season at being a stud dog

Hi Corey I think there are 13 bitches now either in pup or had pups and there are a dozen or so straws with people waiting for bitches to comes on. I am hoping to get another 15 or so during the spring and get to around 40 bitches by Xmas. That would give him a chance although all the stud masters tell me you need 80 bitches to have any chance to become a commercial sire. I understand why so many get sold to china now. Not that he is going anywhere. It will be what it is. Fingers crossed. Thank to all who have considered him.

It will be a pretty good effort to get 40 on the ground by Xmas in this competitive stud market

Yes but what life without a goal. A lot of people tell me they are considering him but want to wait till he is proven. A catch 22 sandro. He will be back in the track soon too and is trialling very quick so hopefully a couple of quick runs help.

And sweet it is winning again shows just how deep and strong his family is. So that helps because it is a genuine 500m plus family on the dam line.

What a great family he comes from.
His branch of the Waroo Lass family via Harper Valley really shows how influential she has been as a blue hen
Carrying very little Brother Fox blood he is like an Australian outcross
Do you have questions about breeding theories?
