Nothing could stop the CANIDAE Motosport.com Kawasaki team at the Ranch. Not Mother Nature. Not the tough competition. Not the rough track. Nothing! Team CANIDAE steam rolled over the competition with seven moto wins, six runner ups and a total of 16 podium spots not to mention two National Titles from this team; not a bad weekend for the boys in Green.
Zack Freeberg had a good weekend, but some transmission troubles in his 450 moto kept him from a podium spot in this class. Zack would bounce back and podium two out of three times with a 4/3/3 for a 3rd overall in the 250B class. This kid is going to be a name to watch in the near future, you can count on that.
Justin Bogle also had a good weekend as he competed in the Schoolboy B/C (12-16) class on his 125cc Kawasaki and the Schoolboy B/C (14-16) class on his 250F Kawasaki. Justin struggled with starts on the 125 and just missed the podium in this class, but made up for it with triple deuces on the 250. With his 2/2/2 finish, he took home the silver medal and sent notice to the other riders just who is the one to beat next year.
Malcolm Stewart showed tremendous heart and perseverance during a week when the Florida rider could not buy a start. Malcolm clawed his way to the top in almost every moto he raced. In the Four Stroke class, he finished second overall for the week with a 1/6/1 performance. In 450A, Malcolm was consistent with three, second place finishes for another silver medal. Watch this kid next year as he continues to dial in his program.
Dean Wilson came to Loretta Lynn’s as the man to beat and he did not disappoint. If it were not for his first moto in the 250A class, Dean would have swept every moto he competed in the entire week. He finished 3/1/1 in the class for his first National Title of the weekend, then walked away with the 450A/ProSport Championship with a 1/1/1 tally. Dean proved that his amazing year is no fluke and he is ready for the stardom that is coming his way.
CANIDAE All Natural Pet Foods could not be more proud of their team, the riders, the mechanics and the families that make this program the elite powerhouse that it is. The entire ream works tirelessly to improve and represent themselves and their sponsors at the highest level. We at CANIDAE salute you fine young men for a job well done.

To say that Dean Wilson is on another level right now would be an understatement. He hasn't won everything this year, but almost has. This kid is primed and ready for the big time. Don't let his laid back attitude fool you, he works as hard as anyone and is determined to make his name known in the big leagues following Loretta's. But with a Lites class already so deep in talent, will there be room for another hot shoe from the amateur ranks hoping to break into the limelight? You bet there will be. If he keeps it up, Dean will be moving into his debut race at Unadilla with as much hype as anyone, and deservingly so. In our opinion, it will be the influx of this younger generation that will push those less willing to the sidelines. But let's not jump on the pro train too soon; Dean still has a handful of amateur nationals to take on before he gets to sit at the adult table. Mammoth, Ponca and Loretta's wait on the horizon over the next few months, and if his past results are any indication (and we think they are) you can expect to see a lot more title trophies on Dean's mantle before all is said and done.

The CANIDAE Motosport Kawasaki team once again over achieved at Lake Whitney and are set up to do the same at Oak Hill. Dean Wilson and Malcom Stewart proved to be two of the most dominant riders on the track and Justin Bogle proved that he has what it takes to build himself into one of the top intermediate riders in the country next season.
Despite over seven inches of rainfall throughout the week the amateur team was able to bring home five overall titles and four podiums.
Dean Wilson proved that he can come back from injury and come back strong. His aggressive riding style coupled with his unbelievable will to win earned Dean an amazing four national titles from Whitney. This is Dean's final year with our amateur team and we look forward to watching him win many more titles before the season is up.
New team members Malcom Stewart and Justin Bogle were equally as impressive. Stewart earned his first national title since joining the team and followed it up with two podiums and a fourth while Bogle was able to put himself on the podium and inside the top ten twice.
