WHAT does Boost juice, up-marketsandwiches and greyhounds in Mackayhave in common?Not much unless you are Brett Frolleythe 33-year-old breeder of Australia’scurrent champion sprinter Slater and hismultiple Group winning brother Big Swell(Surf Lorian-Wipe Out).Frolley and his wife Kathy have movedto Mackay in the past few months with theidea of establishing a greyhound rearingcomplex for their own dogs.Along the way he and Kathy haveestablished a business called Jolt HealthSpa. “It’s like Boost Juice meets an upmarketsandwich shop,” said Brett.But he and Kathy, whose family live inthe area, have also bought a 40 acreproperty 30 minutes from Mackay wherethey plan to establish their greyhoundcomplex.“We’ve got nothing on the property atthe moment,” he said. ”It’s an old canefarm on which we will build a home andthe necessary kennels and yards to havebroodbitches and rear their pups.”Mackay, which has been struggling tomake ends meet on the greyhound racingfront in recent times, might seem a uniquespot for Frolley to establish such a complex.“I have never had any desire to traindogs, although I have been going out to theMackay dogs most race nights,” he said.“I like to get involved and seegreyhounds race.”Frolley was born in Frankston inVictoria. He got his first greyhound in1993.His family moved to Queensland forfive years in the 1990s and bought a sevenacre property at Tamborine from nowGRA steward Gail Thorsby and husbandSteve.“We bred a couple of litters each yearbut the move north was basically for alifestyle change,” he said. “We knew no onebut raced a couple of dogs.”One of those was North Surf who wastrained by David Keep with success atAlbion Park.Frolley is a TV cameraman.“I was working at the horses and dogsfilming race meetings,” he said.But eventually Brett moved back toVictoria to work for Sportscolour.He was running a few greyhounds outof a 20 acre property at Bendigo when heran into Robert Jackson who at the timewas a devoted harness racing man.“I worked with Robert covering racemeetings around country Victoria forSportscolour and eventually I swayed himMackaywelcomes theSlater dynastyDarren Murray and his champSlater with his biggest fans,breeder Brett Frolley and hismum Joy and wife Kathy.into greyhounds,” said Brett.“By this time I had moved back toFrankston and I moved all my dogs ontoRobert’s property.”The story of how Brett came to getWipe Out, dam of Slater and Big Swell,has been written many times after herGroup 1 winning sons were sweeping allbefore them.“I can’t afford to keep all the dogs webreed, so I kept a bitch from the SurfLorian litter which I named Beachley andwe sent the rest to Jacko,” he said.Frolley’s dogs are still in Victoria.Beachley, who chased home Slater in aGroup 2 race in Victoria, broke down afterwinning at Sandown in sensational time.Frolley decided to retire her and she hasbeen mated to Collision.Wipe Out’s litter to Hallucinate havebroken in well and the bitch has since beenrepeat mated to Surf Lorian in a bid formore Slaters or Big Swells.“I’ve also got a bitch called Angel Mintwho is a litter sister to Mint Magic and wehave been breeding with her,” he said.Everything is for sale at the right priceand that will be Frolley’s motto on his newgreyhound property.“I want to keep the line going and that’swhy I decided to retire Beachley after shebroke down, to get pups out of her,” hesaid.In six months Brett hopes to have theMackay property completed and get all hisdogs settled on the property.“The business is going well and we arehappy to get to the warmer weather,” hesaid.Sounds like the perfect situation. Now,another Slater or two will put the icing onthe cake.ContactSTEVE or MARREEat TRIPLE CROWNLODGEWhiskyAWESOME ASSASSIN-PRINCESS WHISKYBK DOG JAN 02EARLY WINNERS COMING FROM A WIDE RANGE OF BLOODLINESTHROWING A COMBINANTION OF STRENGTH AND SPEEDPURE CONQUEST BKBitchDebuted at 21 months, 515m SandownBlistering section of 5.02 Records 4.99Won by 8.5 lens in 29.99Now Heading to SA OaksADSUP BKW BitchDebuted at 25 months 600m DaptoPulled off a Massive Betting PlungeLed out, won by 12 lens 35.01 BODM/Final won by 12.5 lens 34.88 BODThese Dogs have had Most Starts, Being July '05 WhelpsMigrate 20 starts 8-5-3 $25,715 P/MoneyWait On Buddy 24 starts 10-2-4 $25,870 "02 45784400 or mob 0408 444445The (September, 2007) Journal Page 15
