Not a doubt in the world in can run. However, early sectionals are the killer of dogs with loads of ability and so far, it has not shown much early dash. If it improves its first marker times, it will be a topliner and probably will be anyway.

Take the Wayne Vassallo trained Rookie Traveller. Breathtaking 29.78 winner of his very first race start around Sandown Park back in April. No doubting this dog has a huge motor and ability. He has one big problem. Shocking first split times has meant they have to put him over the longer distance (which he looks suited anyway) and he is yet to deliver on any of his early promise.

No doubting Roundsy only keeps stars, thats obvious. But, this dog reminds me of Rookie Traveller from what I have seen. With that being said, he might be the "learning" type and smarten up with age, but the only way you will be a super star and have ordinary box/first split manners if you have a motor like Turanza Bale or good old Proven Alias....

Time will tell

At 21 months old and only had 3 starts, I think it will be awhile until we see this dog at his best! He is a half brother to Mantra Lad, both being by Al Fresco, so staying will probably be something he will get to somewhere down the line!! I agree he has not raced against much yet and it will be interesting to see a real quick one out in front of him and see if he can mow it down!!! I do not know Glen Rounds but I'm a huge fan since back before his World Title days as he places his dogs so well and doesn't waste a start with them, so no doubt he will extract every bit of ability that the dog has!!

I have bought 5 Slater pups that are currently 17 months old. All the boys broke in like smoke. The fastest boy broke his leg in a shepparton trial and will be out for five months. But look out for the other 2 who will be racing in 6 weeks time. It will be somewhere out in the country. the 2 girls are taking a little longer to come on but they are trailing at shepperton today i think. One of the girls looks to be something special. The dogs are just a picture to look at, all big 33 - 37 kg dogs and the bitches would be around 30kg. We are expexting some big things of these dogs especially the dog who broke his leg and will be back running around xmas time. He ran the quickest trial of the day at shepp a few weeks back and his leg broke 20mtrs from the post. It would have some time he ran. Very upsetting for all parties involved but he will back to his best the vet is sure. One last thing i will say Advanced vet clinic in the city is the best animal hospital in Victoria. They specialize in animal breaks and using them dramatically improved his chances of running again.

I have currently purchased 5 Overflo x miss mini mouse pups, im really struggling to find any info on Overflo but i heard he won alot of races in syd. Can anybody fill me in?

I have 9 pups by Slater aged 7 weeks old that are strong and healthy. In the next couple of weeks they will be up for sale. Slater has had over 100 winners including city winners. Hope he continues to do well at stud and keeps on throwing good winners. cheers Dougie
