Dear Michael, enjoy this crest of a wave and I hope many more days like today are ahead of you. This topic is a terrific example of the legacy that can be created by posting your dreams and watching them reach fruition! I'm so pleased for you all.

50/1 for next years Derby.... a vintage winner of the Puppy Cup according to RPGTV.

What great post race interview with the connections of 'Charles'. It brought a tear to my eye! It's what racing is all about. New owners taking a chance on Michael's belief that Rafas Wee Pet would throw a champion! They weren't wrong!


Steve the main man hid from the cameras, but if I was wearing that pink shirt I would hide too!!!
Well done Dave with Dragon posse

Thanks Lynda for all your kind words, always supportive.
Rafas wee pet was only mine by fluke/luck really, my dad always said if you didn't like someone buy them a greyhound!! The guys who bred her bought beef/ tripe off me and owed me 100 so I took a black bitch off them for 500 @ 8weeks old.(1st greyhound)
Only because I used to go to the dungannon track with my dad and his mate who always seemed to have a good black bitch.
My game plan was to race her at the best level possible and then breed her. No offers made none refused no bad luck lol.
Honestly if I had listened to others and sold my wee pet I would be out of greyhounds. All are not rafas wee pet I've found to my expense!
But to make a long story short and stop boring people who read this cr## THERE'S MORE TO COME LOL

Great story Michael! I notice that Laughing Gravy didn't have a star on his head so my pick of the litter is still to appear...
