Arriving at Westview Kennels is a greyhound the whole of the UK & Ireland were looking to buy for all the top class open race staying competitions. This dog was even been earmarked to go to Dubai just like a lot of the other top stayers/marathon runners.
However through out number one main mans contacts and our relationship with the breeder we are delighted to announce that we have managed to secure this special talent.
'Prospect' is an a son of 'Ace Hi Rumble x Flying Winner' who of course was sold for £70,000 to Harry Findlay and went on to win the TV Trophy & The Regency at Hove (£15k to winner).
'Prospect' has recently been competing in the highly prestigious Kasco Novice Stake at Thurles, one of the slower running tracks in Ireland. This stake has previosuly been won by such superstars as Milldean Phanther. This stake was over 480 metres which is way too short for 'Prospect' to show his true ability.
Never the less he showed aeroplane pace one night when he made the 1st bend in front and from there he was simply in a different league as he powered to an emphatic 5 lengths win in a brilliant winning time of 29.00 (-.10slow)
*****1st in 28.90 525 yards race Thurles****
(Major open class run)
The further 'Prospect' raced that night the further he was in front - Please look at video the night he won and judge for yourself - watch the pace he showed from the last bend to winning line.
It takes a major open class dog to break the 29.00 seconds barrier at Thurles and thats what this lad has done. It would be a 28.60 run at the likes of Limerick, Shelbourne - etc.
'Prospect' comes from a major open class litter. His comrades include the likes of the great legendary 'Volcano' ,one of the best stayers in Ireland or England (£50,000 refused - Money simply cannot buy her.) 'Balance Sheet' sold to the UK for £10,000 after doing 29.21 at Thurles ( 4 1/2 lengths slower than this lad and he wont cost as much!!) 'Calzaghe Lilly' winner of the 2013 William hill grand prix @ sunderland £15,000 to winner. Our very own 'Afewdollarsmore' (winner of the Summer Stayers Classic) who is one of the best stayers in the UK comes from the great 'Flying Winner".
His dam has already produced some of the best stayers in racing today - whatever 'prospect' does over 4 bends is a bonus - as with his stamina packed breeding his future is over the 6 bends.
It is no exaggeration to say hat all the leading trainers and owners in the UK & Ireland were fielding enquires about him & his sister (Volcano) for the upcoming £15,000 English St Leger at Wimbledon in November and also the likes of The Great North run at Newcastle.
He arrives this week at Westview Kennels and we are extremely delighted to be training him as dogs with his breeding, pace and staying ability are rare commodities in todays game.
His pet name is Polar.
If you are interested in purchasing this potential staying superstar please phone me further discuss this excting talent further.
