Scouting Mission

As promised here is an update from last weeks scouting mission to the Emerald Isle to look at some young pups trial.

I watched several trials some I felt were not good enough, However one dog that got me very excited was a young Aug 2011 pup. (14 months old) whose sire won the £25,000 Produce stakes at Clonmel in a brilliant 28.38. This young pup has only been in the traps 3 times.

His dam has already bred 28.60 race winners at Shelbourne Park.

Racing in a 2 dog sprint he did not rocket out of traps but once he got into stride he showed fantastic all round pace to win by 5 lengths in 16.38 for the 300 yards at Clonmel. His time of 16.38 was simply fantastic for a 14 month old puppy. He will easily do a 16.20 run which is major open class.

To put his time into perspective  the likes of "Express Shuttle" recorded 16.53 at Clonmel for the 300 yards before he was sold for a five figure sum to Westview Kennels. He went on to win the Blue Riband at Hall Green before finishing second in the 2011 Midland Puppy Derby (beaten 3/4 a length in the Final)

All this young 14 months old puppy can do is improve , once he gets more schooling and is allowed to develop. He will not be seen at his best until he goes over the 480metres distance . We have had to act fast to secure his services as a lot of trainers in Ireland & England were looking to purchase him.

Please phone me direct to discuss this highly exciting young puppy further .
