She is beautifully bred but pretty pedestrian ability wise on exposed form. I reckon Matt is on the right path FWIW. A son of FB is a good option. I've bred a bitch from the line and I'd suggest chase is another ingredient you'll need to address.

I only suggested Out Of Range because he's already worked with Champagne Sally. But if looking for a bit of fire Hecton Bale a good option as a Fernando bale son

Hi Jacqueline. I had a bit of a look at your bitch's pedigree bloodlines & she looks suitable for quite a few sires for a few different reasons. I like the look of the match up between her & 1st season sire SENTENCED. He was a great chaser with loads of ability. This also match up also shows beautiful balance throughout the ancestry with some nice line breeding involved but not to close. Also check out TOMMY SHELBY , SUNSET SPITFIRE & TIGGERLONG TONK. These match ups show heavy line breeding if you wish to approach a mating that way. Best of luck whichever way you choose as I believe anybody breeding litters now are to be commended considering the of breeding greyhounds has hit an all time low. Regards.

Where have you been hiding Steve? Breeding has hit an all time low. really? You need to go back 3 years, there were litters numbers advertised on Data here under 30! Today there are some 75 litters advertised.
There are new sires hitting the ranks every week, Pups prices are soaring, Prize-money has never been better (Not spread right though) If you have a decent dog and willing to travel, life can become much easier today.

Not arguing here but I I was quoting the numbers of litters whelped in NSW now compared to the same time 10 years ago Terry. Life isn't much easier if you only have average K9s & the price of beef is $7.50kg. Its all well & good if you have a kennel full of good quality racers but what if you don't ? + the costs of rearing is overwhelming especially if you only breed to keep your own line & not to sell any. I'm saying that breeders should be better looked after than they are at the moment as I know many families who have left the game due to the rising costs of everything. I admit p/money is better but only for the top K9s. I went to the Moree carnival last year & they didn't even pay unplaced p/money. That is NOT ON in my opinion m8.
Do you have questions about breeding theories?
