BOCKOS A DAD

Ian Fortune

One of the all-time great trackers, 2025 Derby champion Bockos Diamond is officially a dad for the first time.

Graham Box was delighted to share the news earlier this week that his brilliant son of Dorotas Wildcat had sired a litter of nine out of Bockos Melody.

The litter consists of five dogs and four bitches and early evidence would suggest they are going to thrive with Melody proving to be a wonderfully attentive mother. Of course, Bockos Melody was also a top class on the track and hails from one of the great dam lines as a daughter of Ballymac Razl.

It is her third litter on the ground and should the pups inherit any of their sires incredible pace, they could be making headlines in the future. We look forward to seeing these little diamonds and many more in action in the coming years.
