Pictured is the beautiful Zam Turbo Blitz, a full sister to stud dog, Ebony River. She has broke season and will be bred to Deco Deano. This mating will add the bit of bottom we feel she needs.


Also on season is Dance Of Dreams and Oneco Mais Oui. We are thinking of breeing Mais Oui to Maryville Rumble* and will be offering those pups for sale. She is a littersister to stakes bitch Oneco Faux Pas. Mais Oui ran top grade at Palm Beach.

Our wee Hondo Black ex Mineola Di pups are earmarked and we are in the beginning stages of planning their export to the US.

Red Thunder's son, Thundering Sam has quietly taken the Palm Beach Kennel Club by storm! This pup in 8 starts is in top grade! His lines on our homepage will be updated. We will also be adding more pics this weekend on him. DQ and Sharon Williams believed in Red Thunder enough to breed to him...how about you???? The proof is in the pudding....and his name is Thundering Sam! I made a promise to Dottie and Tony Morris...this pup makes the puppy stake finals...and I will be in Palm Beach!
Wheelie Cool was bred yesterday to Group Rooster*. Dance Of Dreams....littersister to 2008 Derby Lane Sprint Classic champ, Kinloch Brae, is in season. We are mulling over who to breed her to at this point. We have several broods in and this Holiday season should be a busy whelping time for us here.
Some of you may note that our multimedia page is missing. Webmaster Brian is working on downloading replays etc. on all of our sires. We have made some recent staff changes and Brian will be resuming those duties on the website. We will be adding a Recent Replays tab soon which will feature hot races from our sires offspring! We will also have "Race Of the Week" on there so check back often!
Also...on a very sad note.....Fortress Blue has passed. He gave us 12 good years. He was the 1999 North American National Win Leader and #12 in All Time Wins. His top offspring include the Jacksonville star.....All Hail Eddie......Derby Lane star......Red Coat.....the router......Meet The Creeper.....amongst others. He was a special dog. We have plenty of semen on him left in our tanks. I still have a daughter, Danica Driver racing at Palm Beach with the B&B kennel. Blue is gone but he won't be forgotten. After a racing accident that was career ending, Meet The Creeper found a couch in my house! As well as his half brother, Ray-Ray. Martin Roper brought his star Red Coat home to his couch as well. So there are constant reminders to all of us here of Blue every single day. Fortress Blue was owned by Henry Howe and myself. R.I.P. old buddy.

Two words.....Maryville Rumble*. Rumble's coming out party happened at the Fall Meet and it was a big party! His pups were incredible. They were headlined by the incredible SR Boogieman. He won the first day by a whopping 21 lengths and captured the attention of the biggest buyers out there. Doug Riches made the decision to hang on to his budding racer and lease him to the D'Arcy Kennel of St. Petersburg, FL. Boogieman is pictured on the right.
Although Rumble was the talk of Abilene, Fine Silver* quietly had a pup by the name of Pfannys Kid Crae run. Kid Crae is a wee 14 mo. old brindle male. He ran 3rd the first day. I know....so what, right? Well the story got around...this pup had gotten loose BEFORE his race and ran a total of 2 laps 'round the perimeter of the race track and then went to the box to RACE! He caught the attention of finishing trainers and was actually purchased by one and I think maybe making a repeat performance at the Spring Meet. I was so impressed with this pup. I also saw Cary Tamarius out at the Meet and he was beaming with pride over his Silver pups in training with Johnny Culbreath. We wish him and Johnny much luck with their Silver babies as well. Silver is off to a very promising start. It was so neat to see Silver brought into this country and watch his very first pup run live. I was actually a little emotional over it.
We purchased some very fine broods for our good friends at Champions Racing Team, Inc. I want to thank Lance Berland for the great purchases we made as well as Wayne Strong.
Wheeliecool is in season and should be bred to Group Rooster* this week. Roger Knauff brought down one of his good broods this AM and she will also be going to the Rooster. Jr's Prelude is huge with Rooster pups and isn't due until mid November!
It was nice seeing old and new friends at the Meet. The sale surprisingly hit a million dollars. It will be interesting to see who the big buyers were.
I hope everyone had a great weekend!

Pictured is Sword of Eile a son of Swahili Eile*. This is the fastest thing on the farm right now. We are hearing rave reviews from all the breeders who have Eile pups. I think he is the perfect sire for those who have already bred to Maryville Rumble* and are looking for another Aussie/Irish sire. Group Rooster* is the other sire to keep in mind when breeding those females who already have some Rumble pups out there!

Speaking of Maryville Rumble*........I have recieved several calls throughout the day today from Abilene and the results at the track today for the Rumble pups have been outstanding. I am hearing that the litter out of the bitch, Molly, a Gable Dodge female all won their races except for one and that pup finished 2nd! Sounds like Rumble is really making some noise out there. We wish everyone the best of luck this week at the National Meet with their Rumbles. We will also see the one and only Fine Silver* entry (a wee 14 mo. old) back in on Thursday. According to a witness the pup ran a strong race. This pup is a bit younger than our Silver pups and they are only beginning training! And the pup was NOT short a bit!

Results for the Meet can be seen on the NGA website!

What a glorious day! It was absolutely gorgeous outside and we were able to get a ton done around here. I tilled up the whirly gig first thing this AM and we put the litter of Dodgem By Design ex Hanks Cool Cat* around for the first time. They did everything right. Cat is a Smooth Rumble female and she will be bred to Group Rooster* as soon as she breaks season. She is due to break any day now.

We had word from our finishing trainer that the Fine Silver* pups are exceding expectations in training. Our trainer said this is the best bunch yet! Word is they are very aggressive and have chase +++ !!!!

Brood for implants have been coming in at a pretty good pace....we have been "hitting" with both fresh and frozen semen!!!
