Start a syndicate among your mates and have some fun! Ok, most greyhounds (or horses) don't pay their way so why not get a group together, maybe a group of BigFooty people, and lose a little bit instead of a lot, but have some fun along the way? What would be better than going to the track to see your dog run?

How much does your golf club membership cost you? How much of it do you ever get back? What about that persian cat your missus bought? What about your footy club membership? At least with a greyhound you can get SOME of it back!

I have 6 female pups for sale. These pups are 19 weeks old and lack nothing in the breeding department. They're bred to run city distances so you can see them race for the big money at the big meetings.

Here is their pedigree:

Here is a pic of one of the pups taken yesterday:

Ask a mate who knows what they're talking about what they think of these pups and if they're worth the $1200 each I'm asking, then let me know if you're interested, either in here or via pm.

Looking at the breeding side of things am i correct in thinking these dogs will be probably better at the shorter horseshoe tracks rather than running a strong 500m oval?
No, they're bred to be strong types. Primo Uno is throwing plenty of strength into his pups and on the 500+ metre city tracks he's already at number 2 at The Meadows and number 4 at Sandown Park in his first full season. All the track records of his offspring are over distances beyond 500 metres. His best (IMO) pup so far, Train A Journey, is fast early but can easily handle the "all important" 500 metres and recently ran second in the Topgun after copping interference early in the race.

Token Prince, the dam sire (sire of the mother of the pups for the uninitiated), is possibly Australia's greatest sire of stayers as well as Australia's leading sire for the last 3 years. The dam is a true 500 metre b!tch. The grand dam of the pups was a short course b!tch, hence taking her to Token Prince to add strength.

My belief is that these pups will easily handle 500 metres, with some of them going on to be front running stayers.
