Have one and love him. Know the people that owned him and was around the stud at the CNFR. Outstanding individual, made perfect with an amazing disposition. Would love to own more.

It's so nice to hear all the good comments about Dashin Elvis! We were obviously partial to him and think he marks his foals with a good mind and huge stride. Elvis was a great barrel horse in his own right and has produced some true champions. Last year we had fun watching Tom & Becca Kelly's good gelding Hesa Dashin Dreamer & Jolene Montgomery win the 2nd Go of the BFA Futurity and this year LC Packin Heat owned by Matt and Bendi Dunn & jockeyed by Troy Crumrine has been winning futurities and just qualified for the American as well. We lost Elvis in 2011, but his legacy lives on. We had 2 babies by him this year and you could just SEE the old guy in there. It was pretty cool. Thanks for asking about him! We sure loved him.

Yes he is! He's out of a great mare, Packin Sassy and has had the best chance a colt could ever have. He started with Kelly Carr, went to Michael Boone and then the Dunns bought him. Troy is obviously the winningest jockey around. They are a cool pair.
