Pace and chase

Which sires are most noted for consistently producing early pace, courage and extreme chase and can run, or consistently produce 500 metre dogs? Back in the day, I loved Go Wild Teddy and dogs along those lines. Love to hear your thoughts! Thankyou guys!

How important has chase become since the crack down? We were so focused as breeders on speed and track records, we forgot about chase. Any sire that passes on this valuable trait, will be worth his weight in gold over the next decade.
There are a couple of sires I would steer well clear of chase wise, from personal experience. But there is a fine line between chase and aggression. I've noticed the sires I've been recommended for chase,also produce more than their fair share of fighters. I don't know what's worse, a head turner or a nonnie. The Head Honcho and KC and All sire line seems to be the best source at the moment. But that's very much a generalisation.
Besides all that, it's always the sires fault not the bitch when the pups aren't genuine chasers ;)

Beast Unleashed, Ando's Mac and Bernardo are probably the most noted current sires for pace and chase. Unfortunately though the harder they try the more likely they get tired sooner and struggle for 500
