Pedigree Query

well right or wrong ,we did it anyway and the feisty little fella is two weeks old and terrorising his mam. though a bit small at birth (he is a first foal) he looks pretty correct and we are very pleased with him, just wish this biting north easterly wind would go away so we can get him out on the ...

hey come on derby !
do your homework, saddlers wells as a sire of sires ,you are joking arent you, he has had hundreds of attempts (probably thousands) with most of the best mares in the world and his roster of sucessful sons is woefully small.

hi teb just having a quick glance at your girls pedigrees , you would appear to have plenty of scope. fraamtastic ,with northern dancer 4x4 through two similar sons (lyphard and nureyev) should probably be avoided in future unless you look for a line through an atypical son such as nijinsky . the on...

no she never raced over here ,2 time winner in us for $23,000, first foal 2y0 now winner of 1 from 1 by lord carson. plan is to breed to sell as weanling, we have plenty of options here speed or distance i was just looking to see if there was sucess with any particular lines in us so that i could tr...

thanks for that brendan, i would fancy smoke glacken for this mare, i think he is underrated, however we are the other side of the pond and i dont want to travel her that far, thats why i am looking to see what has worked in the states ,to get an idea as to what sire line to try. the mare (chibi) al...

many thanks for that , i have just sifted through that lot and found : five by northern dancer line four by mr prospector one by wild again one by sharpen up one by hail to reason one by damascus one by in reality one by bold ruler. i suppose this ratio would be about average bearing in mind the rel...

any ideas guys on where i can find information on which sire lines are doing well with dynaformer mares.
many thanks,

pity the small breeder. there was a time when we could raise and nurture the produce of our couple or three or four mares , bred to sensibly priced stallions ,look after them with personal care produce them to a reasonable standard ,and sell them at a good sale(albeit on one of the lesser days) for ...

got to agree with you guys medecis does appear good value, saw him earlier this year and what a super looker, maybe one leg is a bit pissed but overall very impressed, however i would worry that the first book of mares was quite weak. if you get the chance take a look at some of the others there as ...

hi louis,

the (gainsborough) hyperion line through cadeaux genereux is looking more promising of late through G1 winner bahamian bounty,sire of G1 winning siblings, pastoral pursuits and goodricke both of which retire to stud shortly.

if you really like the dynaformer , but not the $100.000 you could always try publisher, stands for a fraction of the price, good strong sort covering mostly N.H mares ,even with increased travel you would still save a small fortune and probably get most of the genes you want,

thanks Bill , i also noticed the dam of machiavellian (coup de folie) is bred like this, although in her case it is the third dam almahmoud featuring in both lines.

with all the pedigree advisers looking for "nicks" and inbreeding to superior ancestors ,why is it so rare to find mares being mated back to stallions originating from the same tail female family,- what are your views on mating a mare this way if you can bred her back to a stallion with the same 5th...
