Nice win by Leeroy Rocker at his first start at Wenty in the Bob Payne Heats in a quick 29.94. Makes another Group race final.
Good luck to Jeff and Jane Crawford in the final.

Bert he was a dog with a bright future and looked to be a group race performing dog from the get go but he got a injury and never recovered as I understand it and he was only very young.
Go for it.

Bert I think if he could get some girls his way he will become a very nice Sire ..
He had speed to burn and would chase through a brick wall .
I do not know the owners or do I often pump up other peoples dogs .
I would use him myself .

It's hard to say as Leeroy is an unproven sire and we don't know how he throws and I don't know the traits of your bitch.
Your bitch ran 29.64 at The Gardens and 30.3 at Dubbo so she looks like she may have had some back end speed. Being by Trewly Special that is not surprising.
Leeroy Rocker certainly had a lot of early pace and was getting stronger as he got older as evidenced by his Wenty win later in his career but had terrible injuries to his stoppers which severely restricted the progress of his career.
On pedigree the mating is nicely linebred to Head Honcho through Sporty's Babe and Master Havoc.
Premier Fantasy has nicked well to Head Honcho and Brett Lee and you have doubled up both.
I can't really comment on whether that is going to prove fruitful or not, but with the outcross sitting over the top it looks a sound mating and worth a try.

Yes I will be watching him very closely. Could be a handy Sire.

I would use Leeroy 4 sure. He was a super fast k9. ran 2nd in Tweed Galaxy final - top effort. ran time on 1 & 2 turn tracks , was a genuine group quality k9 & Graeme Bate said he wsa the fastest k9 he had put a lead on . BIG STATEMENT ! Suffered a severe stopper injury early on after winning 1st 6 starts but really never got to show the real potential he had due to that injury constantly flaring up. He has an outstanding maternal side of his pedigree as good as any + has BRETT LEE positioned as his maternal damsire which always has a huge influence on any mating he'll have just look at COSMIC RUMBLE,LOCHINVAR MARLOW & OAKS ROAD they all have B.L in that position & r throwing great 2 most lines + his sire line has proven 2 "click" with our lines with great results as P.F has a few son's at stud now. I am seriously considering putting him over 1 of my MOGAMBO bitch's + he at stud in Sydney at only $750 a go I think + serves bitch's the way GOD intended em 2 which is a feature I like the most as I am a bit old school & a good sire should jump on & give a bitch the time of her life ! ha ha ha not a fan of AI & all that jazz as I think its based on greed. A FULL SERVE IS A FULL SERVE in my opinion & ya should get the lot of him if ya get my drift m8.

Very pleasing to see one of Leeroy Rocker's pups 'He's A Rocker' fly around Lismore last nite in a very quick 29.65.
On a nite when the heat of the Million Dollar Chase went 29.77 & 29.92 this bloke has a very good career ahead of him. Other's in the litter can run too.
Do you have questions about greyhound racing?
