Now where did I compare myself to Nick Savva? I said he generalized too much about sires and history not me shows hes not 100% correct about that. What I completely agreed with him, was the quote I highlighted. Its 100% the best way to find elite success in this game.
Keep playing the man...it still amuses me how much I p@ss some off lol

Far from pissing me off, you and Avante Garde amuse me no end.
Anyone who is a self proclaimed V12 Pedigree breeder, certainly fits the egomaniacal self-aggrandizing criteria I mentioned.

Your words not mine bud, go find where Ive claimed to be anything other than someone who puts their money where their mouth is and have tasted some decent success right the way through.
Btw Droopys Hope had a failed litter to Sparta Maestro, before I negotiated the sale of her to Australia. Every litter I planned for her has had a good dog in it.
The same story with Fancy Blonde - she was put up for lease because she had a failed litter. I bred a quality dog in Kalden Fury. Then gave her back and they bred another dud litter from her.
Im going to keep doing exactly whats served me very well thus far. Keep putting my money where my mouth is...and enjoying the personal attacks...I mean good dogs lol

Like the bloke who wins the Jackpot on the Pokies. You only hear about the big wins, not the thousands he spent to get that big win. You forget some of us have seen the abject failures you have produced with quality bitches.

I know you keep going on about it lol. Ive got no problem...your favourite is MLadys Fool...its the one you hang youre crap on every time for now 20 years and Ive never hidden away from her ever. But, Ive explained that one over and over again. I still got a Group class dog from her in Droopys Fool...injury got the better of him unfortunately!
MLadys Fool first litter to Token Prince 2 pups (1d, 1b) dog broke his ankle at 6 months in a freak paddock accident. $2000 spent to fix it and given away as a pet. The bitch was no good. Full blood relation FROM A DISTANCE bred later vindicated my putting MLadys Fool to Token Prince!!!!!
And once again, being so inbred, if the outcross sire was available in quantity, I would have used an outcross over and over again. When she retired I remember asking Harlan Goebel a number of times on the old Global Greyhounds site, would he send a shipment of Gable Dodge to Australia. I was wanting to do her 2nd mating to him. He wasnt interested as so many werent way back then!
Still looks pretty decent to me all these years later!!!!
City Of Sydney died not long after retirement ...without ever getting to breed her!
You need some new material...lol

Jealous / Resentment emotions have killed off so many good topics. Forum is not enjoyable if you have a low tolerance to bull or others opinions that differ from yours. I was the one that challenged Savva initial thinking of using home bred unproven sires. Thanks to David Brasch informed us that Savva regretted using unproven sires. Surprise is I am and always have been a fan of the Wizard of MK

If your a multi millionaire you can use unproven sires and not starve !!!
Care to unravel exactly how you were involved and what happened with SOC and Anavay litter?
As for lucky from a champion bitch...I negotiated the sale of Droopys Hope to Australia, after she had a failed litter to Sparta Maestro. You really think, you would be able to purchase a champion racebitch IF shed been successful in her first litter.....same with Fancy Blonde, if she hadnt failed in her first litter, doubt Id have been afforded the opportunity to breed with her. Then giving her back and they bred another dud litter from her, shows how you can get it right and get it wrong with a sire choice!
The better you know your genes and bloodlines, the better chance you have of elite success. Thats not me bragging, never have done that...its me reinforcing, for whatever you and others want to give worth to, what Nick Savva says in that interview. I practice what he preaches in that quote I pasted.

I already told you I owned Sound Lee but yes, that was in partnership with Kerri (no need for me to go into personal relationships here). We were after a companion for Star Of Creation and Kerri got in touch with Larrisa Darragh from GAP who put her onto Stan Wardle, who had a bitch he was wanting to give a good home to. That bitch was Sound Lee and Stan gave her to Kerri and I. Kerri put the dog in her name with GRV for ease even though Sound Lee was retired, and I was happy with that. After doing the sums and chatting with Stan we decided she was worth breeding with even though we didn't get her for that purpose.
Sound Lee lived with us from then until her demise. The pups were whelped in our dining room and reared there for the first 3 months of their lives.
As for Anevay, she was a city winning stayer. So what.
So Droopy's hope wasn't a champion race dog or English 'Bitch Of The Year'? Ok. I'm tipping that if she wasn't those things you wouldn't have even looked at her.
PS. I hope it's not your aliases giving you all those likes.
That'll do me for this topic.

Let's not forget that muppet who got caught creating dodgy Greyhound-data accounts so he could get someone to support his BS theories and comments Now that did have everyone "p!$$ing themselves laughing". Absolutely pathetic and completely amusing, Now who was that? The long term data forum and global greyhound members remember. PMSL

Likewise riding the coat tails of the brilliant dog man Dan Biddle, is basically basking in someone else's glory.
According to The Dogs, Flashy Fool won 7 from 13 starts. Another well performed bitch DL bred from. It's a recurring theme throughout his breeding history.
Do you have questions about greyhound racing?
