Lucky Roll


Inducted into the greyhound hall of fame in 1965, Lucky Roll is the pillar of the American Bloodlines that extend to the dogs racing today. His sire an Austrailan import Just Andrew (Andrew Micawber) and dam Mustard Roll, an Irish import out of Mutton Cutlet bring together the two largest bloodlines of the first 60 years of greyhound track racing. Lucky Roll was whelped September 16, 1931 in Anaconda Montana.

Lucky Roll became the first greyhound to win as many as 60 races during the pari-mutual era of the sport. His years at stud earned an incredible $35,000 in the 1930's.
