Pictured are some 12mo.old pups by Fine Silver*. They are oned by (left to right) Henry Howe, Dick Gerst and Dick Ciampa. They left Wednesday for Joey Lingle's farm to be finished. We wish all the owners luck with these beauties!

This pup is Sword Of Eile aka "Blade". We are pretty proud of this guy. He is a wee 8 mo. old but showing us a ton of promise. He is of course one of Swahili Eile's firstborns.

Maryville Rumble*......I am hearing that the Rumble's schooling on the Abilene track are setting some pretty fast times. This looks like it could be an exciting Meet for Rumble.

Jr's Prelude is back in season and will be bred to Group Rooster*. We are very excited about this litter. Her previous litters look very good.

Congrats to Doug Allen and his pups. Doug's dogs have quietly climbed into the top grades at several major tracks. Most recently Hey Say May went to AA at Tri-State. John McEuen is also back up in grade A at Palm Beach.

Good luck to our friends at the B&J Kennel and Henry Howe on their two finalists in this weekends $50K stakes final.

TS Hanna is due to hit tonight and we also wish everyone well in Hurricane Ike's path.
