Bred in 1946 with a low inbreeding coefficient of 14.2%, Red Wraith was the first post-war drop-ear champion. His black-backed grandson, Hunston Holy Smoke was an important link during the next decade and despite the universal color prejudice of the day, had show ring successes. He carried the black and tan gene ghrough his prick-ear ancestors, Farndon Red Dog, Quartzhill Rampion, as well as Tiny Tim of Biffin. His other important descendant who also carried the black and tan gene, was Elel Spruce, a compact extrovert and the most dominant sire of the 50's. He was bred and owned by Mr. P.G. Anguish of Great Britain. From judge Mrs. A.F. Mirrlees in December 1947, "A lovely dog and to my mind a perfect type, excells in head with neat correctly carried drop-ears. A gorgeous rich red coat and looks like tackling any job he is asked to do."
