That's great Brent. Our boy arrived down here this week and he is such a good type. Great nature and has settled in with some "cousins" and taking it all in. Good luck with your boy!

Congratulations to Zipping Maggie, trainer Peter Dapiran and the Hallinan family, on winning the $20,000 to the winner "Destini Fireball Stayers Final" at The Meadows on Saturday 25/07/2015. This takes Zipping Maggie's stats to 50 starts for 14-10-5-8 and $132,825 prizemoney.
Zipping Maggie put in a giant effort in a quality field to be able to run home forcibly over the 725m facing a very strong head wind. She has been competing in top company and knocking on the door of Group Races. Well done Maggie!

Happy to announce that Destini Fireball has had his first winner, and rightfully so, it was at The Meadows where he had claimed multiple Group Races and was the 2013 Greyhound of the Year.
We have the oldest litter of Destini Fireball pups in Australia and Destini Teerex is the first to start racing. He won at his 2nd start at The Meadows on 25 May 2016. (His cousin ran on his heels not long after the start, but he recovered quickly.) Sincerely hope everyone else with his pups will also enjoy similar results.
EXTERNAL LINK Good luck to the people who already have his pups on the ground and hope many more breeders may also consider using him as well.

Big Congratulations to Brent with another winner by Destini Fireball.First pup to race and win,out of the Sure Destiny litter.Flew around Ipswich today in a fast time of 25.36. Good win Mate, you've just giving me more incentive to get my 4 onto the race track. You certainly cant knock Destini Fireball as a just started Stud Dog.Only two pups I know to race, both winners, one at The Meadows, and Double Destiny winning at Ipswich today, not a bad start to a Stud career, and I reckon hes got plenty more winners to come.Just hope he gets used as much as he should. This day and age you have to be careful picking a Stud dog, need a dog that was a hard chaser, well they didnt chase much harder then him.I like a dog that could cop a bump or two in a race, and just keep going, make em chase even harder, look at his Sale Cup win, got hit left right and centre, which would make most chuck the towel in, not this Bloke, he just pinned his ears back, set sail for home, come from last, and mowed them down to win it, what a run! Another major factor, he run flying time at Sandown at a Wednesday arvo meet over the 515 mtr, coming back from a spell, and raced against some of the best Stayers you could ever see, and beat them also! To top it off,his bloodlines are Outstanding.Look at the influence American lines have had on some of our Champions here in very recent times.He offers that vital outcross through his dams OUTSTANDING American bloodlines, you would be missing out not giving this Dog a chance as a future pick for your dam,fullstop. Look out here comes THE FIREBALL....

Yes I hope there is more talent to come.Best one of my four come on season yesterday, so be a while before she gets on track, look out when she does!! The others still need some work I feel, but not to far off.
Very Happy to announce that Destini Fireball had his first winner at Albion Pk tonight,and what a win it was, just a good HARD CHASING come from behind win.Told a little story on another thread on this site about how I called this Dog after one I gave away yrs ago as a pet to friend's family, big black dog called Fergus.He passed away from old age a couple of years ago just before my broodies litter to Destini Fireball was ready to be born.Told him if there's a big black dog in the litter, I would call him Fergus as well.I wanted his race name to be called after my BEST MATE EVER, my 15 yr old German Shepard, Webke.Who I sadly had to put down last year, had him since he was 6 or 8 weeks old, and we stuck together like glue, through thick and thin times, he was always at my side and it was one of my worst days EVER,that trip to the Vet So Fergus ended up being called KING WEBKE. They wrote him off after what they thought was an average performance trial, but what they didnt know was that he got skin ripped off two of his toes in a little scrimage on the first bend in that trial. He missed the kick today, over the 331mtr at Albion from the 3 box, he hunted up on the first corner, he got stuck in the middle of a few dogs as they hit the bend, barged his way through them with Sheer Determination, and run the leader, who was the favourite in the race,down in the straight, and got up and won!! Didn't I scream the house down.lol So first official race today for KING WEBKE, first win at Albion pk for a Destini Fireball pup. Whilst i must admit his dam was a mad keen chaser,after witnessing that win today,there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that anybody will tell me Destini Fireball doesnt put even more grunt/chase into his pups! To many people want that Super Sprinter as there pups Sire, but alot of the times those Super Sprinters cant come from way behind and get up and win! Not King Webke's Sire, he could come from any were and win! Just like his son did today. Well done Destini Fireball,and its only early days yet...

Saturday 30 July 2016 saw the final of the Destini Fireball Stayers Special Event at The Meadows.
It was Group One Maturity night and The Meadows club always presents an evening of genuine hospitality and entertainment for young and old. The theme was "Christmas in July" with a snow playground for the children (big and little), face painting (also for big and little), complimentary raffle tickets to win some great prizes, excellent food and beverages, and some very special GAP dogs relaxing beside chairs after their "meet & greets".
Rob Testa announced a few times early in the evening to listen for when "Santa rings the bell". The very popular Santa did make an appearance, delivering sweets and was there "with his bell" for the all important kids' photos with Santa.
So maybe it was no surprise when "Ring the Bell" put in an enormous run to take out the final of the Destini Fireball Special Event!!
Have a look at the race!
EXTERNAL LINK Sincere congratulations to Gerry O'Keeffe and connections and the very talented "Ring the Bell". A well deserved and exciting win!
Interestingly, 4 of the racers in the final were sired by Kinloch Brae (Ring the Bell's litter sister and Sandown Cup winner, Bells are Ringing had the 8, More in Store box 5 ran 3rd, and Mepunga Rosie who was uninjured in her fall).
Kinloch Brae is from the Greymeadows damline, the same successful damline of Destini Fireball, both tracing directly to Lear Jet.
Congrats again to Ring the Bell and Gerry - and we should all pay attention when Santa "rings the bell"...
