It will have a lot to do with the fact, most breeders are followers. With injury curtailing his career. No bling to excite the punters whether breeder or purchaser
Absolute machine - won debut in Cork 28.45. Went to Shelbourne Pk for 350yd trial, clocked superb 18.64. Never ran again due to injury.
Litters
2014 - 2 (Bubbly Bluebird & Droopys Harbour) 2015 - 4 2016 - 10 2017 - 22 2018 - 32 2019 - 140 And so on.
Happy to say, been following him right the way through and have some vials here in Oz to use on our broods. The vials are definitely not for sale!!

9 from 12 to follow in Irish Greyhound Review sired by Sydney. Just goes to show how Strong the New Tears / Roanokee sire line actually is. Shame Duke Special went abroad looking at his figures!

Yes he's becoming a super sire I actually bred and reared 2 on the list Russian Glory who I sold unraced he looks to have unlimited potential and Glory Katy who we have kept for breeding unfortunately she got an injury in her last race The great thing is I have 2 more litters out in the paddock happy days

It will be interesting to see if Sydney works with Aussie bitches ? Been a lot of flops since Spiral Nikita and Premier Fantasy !

Which ones Mark?
Westmead Hawk being Sydneys dam sire augurs very well! Gypsy Wyong is showing his worth right this minute, to the Turanza Bale dam line!! As did Hawk Alone!!

If theyre the ones youre using to form your argument, good luck with that!
Droopys Sydney is firing with Aussie lines in Ireland! He loves Rumble Spirit over there and Top Honcho, Brett Lee, Royal Impact, Wheres Pedro, Magic Sprite, so why not here as well?

How many Larkhill Jo and Droopys Kewell were done here?
A lot of the sons here were the cast offs! You only need look at Fabregas and his success to see the power of Larkhill Jo here, Dundee Osprey shows Larkhill Jo through Droopys Kewell every bit as successful as it is in Ireland, Group 1 class!!

Only handful of vials here and at his age now. Thatll be about it for his chances here.
But, incorrect Mark, Gypsy Wyong (ex Westmead Hawk) is a star stayer and Indy Matilda (ex Droopys Jet) flying the flag in present times!!
crosses with everything, but best to put him to sharp early paced bitches, his best trait is PACE ON BACK STRAIGHT. collision and brett lee bitches suit well, but i am sure there are many more that suit.

Well unlike most Irish/UK sires since SN and PF Westmead Hawke pups most of them could run 500 but he was still underwhelming here IMO ! Gypsy Wyong i like but one hot day doesn't make it summer !
