A Rick Brant connection?

The Rick Brant Science-Adventure books were a series of 24 books written in the 1940s, 50s and 60s. They were somewhat similar to the Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and Tom Swift series of books.
The main character was Rick Brant, who lived on Spindrift Island, and the author's pen name was John Blaine. In this episode, there is a character named John (author's first name) Brant (character's last name) and a horse named Spindrift (name of the island home).
The writer of this episode was quite possibly doing an homage to the Rick Brant books, which were written by a contemporary writer of the writer of this episode, Jonathan Latimer.
