Thanks lynda Over the moon. My wee pet eating and lapping up her milk. A wee bit of luck that's all i want and Im sure theyll prove me right for keeping her for breeding and not selling her when she was top of her game on the race track. Next couple of years will be FUN!

On the 27th August 2011 I was in Drumbo for the first time in over a decade. They were showing the racing from Shelbourne and I think everyone had a sentimental flutter on Rafas Wee Pet at 12/1 as she took on the big boys at HQ. She only got beaten a length but I can tell you that all the doggy folk that night felt very proud of her judging by the cheers in the stadium. She made a lot of friends after such a game performance and I'm sure her prodigy will be in great demand.

Thanks lynda for reminding me of the good times. Had the 42" on in front of rafas pen in the garage/was a granny till Rafas and zilla took it over. Watched her races that are sky plused. Instead of telling her were she went wrong we appreciated her races. Nuts i know! But thanks for your kind words again.

Dear Michael, I think having 2 top class broods in your granny flat is putting it to much better use! And I'm sure one day they will be grannies!

Hi Michael, I see you've some of Rafas wee pet's up for sale. I'm sure they'll go like hot cakes. From the photo on the advert I like the pup with the black star on his head which reminds me of Star of Dromin and if turned out like her then I think the owner will be very happy. Keep your eye on 'Star' for me so that I can follow his or her career!
