Starfire


Farm rolls out the winners!


Belinda Taggart’s Starfire Farm has produced many champion racing Quarter


Horses over the years. AQHA Champions FIRST KOOL MONEY and ONE KOOL WAVE were both products of Taggart’s breeding program that goes back to her racing champion mare ONE KOOL BUD. The latest champion is a bay filly called ONE KOOL DYNASTY. The three-year-


old filly finished her year with 4 wins, including a stakes win in the PRINCESS DERBY. With three seconds and one third place finish ONE KOOL DYNASTY was the


highest earning and high point horse at Ajax Downs in 2020. ONE KOOL DYNASTY is also the leading candidate for AQHA CANADIAN CHAMPION from Ontario. Brooks is proud to have fueled Belinda’s successful racing and breeding


programs for many years. “As you know I have been a customer with Brooks since 1995. Not only are


they fed with Brooks feed at home, my Trainer Jason Pascoe feeds Brooks. BTW Jason has been the leading trainer in Canada for 2 years in a row.”


“As always sound


nutrition from Brook Feeds is a big reason for our success!”
