Hollywood Goldcard – Sold
Goldcard is a golden palomino gelding, out of an own daughter of Hollywood Return, “Astras Return”, [see Broodmare pg for full breeding history]. He has a nice long hip and sloping shoulder and is going well. After being broken in and given some light mustering and basic training and patterning, he started his roping career, towing the roping dummy, tracking and breakawaying calves and heeling steers. He has really matured nicely in the last 18 months, so much so, that he has been heeled on at several ATRA Jackpots, went to his second rodeo and placed 3rd, under lights. Toward the end of 2012, Pat felt he was ready for some major competitions and competed in the ATRA National Finals at Capella and the CRCA Finals Rodeo in Rockhampton. He has a tremendous amount of natural rate and can really stop hard.
In 2013 he has been hitting a winning streak with several wins with Lacey-Jae aboard. Winning 2 All Girl Team Roping at the Gunnedah Tough Girl Roping, #9 Team Roping at Charters Towers [with Jnr Competitor, Liam Davidson aboard] and #7 Team Roping at Chinchilla. He competed at the 2013 ATRA National Finals, and even Headed some steers there as well. Whilest at the Gunnedah Tough Girl Roping, another Jnr competitor rode him in the Jnr Breakaway Competition. Whilest he has done more heeling than calf work, his stop is so good it would lend him to be a top calf roping horse.
His sire, AD Collect the Check, is accomplished cutter and successful campdrafter, who was campaigned by Rick Hopkins to many wins and places in 2005. Rick is now campaigning several of his progeny. Goldcard’s grandsire, Atoe was a Champion Reiner, and had many winners in this field. Broomfield Freckles Image, who has sired winners in the show, campdraft and rodeo arenas, including Freckles Little Chickasha owned and campaigned by Amanda Watson, was by the immortal Mr Freckles Boy.
His dam, Astras Return, is an own daughter of Hollywood Return, whose list of progeny and their achievements go on and on. Astra has produced winners at Roping, barrel race, campdrafting and polocross, with several youngsters still to make their mark.
Goldcard will make a great Rope horse, however he would cross over into Campdrafting or Challenge with ease. Whilst he has been roped on the most, he would make a good barrel horse with his rate and turn ability. He is bred to excel in any of these events but has the conformation, looks and mind to excel in any arena.
