Breeding Suggestions for Glitterman filly

Postby Frank » Sat Oct 23, 2004 12:39 am

Fillys name is La Luna De Oro. Glitterman doesn't seem to have an affinity to any sire lines. She's alittle offset at knees and average sized. Any help would be apprreciated. Thanks.

Came Home - 40,000.00 fee @ Lanes End OR Double Honor - Farnsworth Farms@ 5,000.00. Of course, it will depend on your budget and marketability plan. These two would concentrate on the sprinter. it might help if you give a bit more info. on your plans.

I like the Gone West sire line . Want to breed her to sell, or race if reserves not met.

More info, please? What's your sire budget, and do you need a PA stallion for breeders' bonuses? Where would you most likely be selling?

Hi Frank,

How about Rocking Trick? Your mare is 6x6 to Djeddah through two sources (Beadah [see Phone Chatter] and Never Bend [see Favorite Trick and Yes It's True]) who really like Rocking Trick's sire Phone Trick and grandsire Clever Trick.

And in general; Clever Trick really likes returns of Djeddah, who was his 2nd damsire. Look at Proud Accolade, the Champagne winner, he's 6x6x7 to that French bred sire.

I would probably be saying all this to you anyway; but I should mention I've done a write up for the as yet non-existent Rocking Trick website and might have a wee bit of an interest in him having success.

The thing that makes Rocking Trick stand out for your mare though, is the hypos 3x4 cross of La Vire and General, the sire of Lord At War.

General is 3/3/4/5x5/5 to Hyperion/Prince Chevalier/Tourbillon/Fair Trial/Molly Desmond.

And La Vire, the 2nd dam of Rocking Trick, is 3/4/4/5/6 to Prince Chevalier/Hyperion/Fair Trial/Tourbillon/Molly Desmond. Nice build-up there, it provides a counterpoint (and by extension some hybrid vigor) to the speedier American lines.

How about Slew Gin Fizz to inbreed to full sibs Relaunch and Moon Glitter. Also you get half sibs Lillian Russell and Mr Prospecter.

I like her with Not A Corgi in NY at $2500, grandson of Gone West, he is by Pembroke who set a world record and he set a track record for 4.5f, so you will get speed. Mr. P is far enough back not to add to the "knee issue" and Bold Ruler is 6x5x6 so you get some strength there too. Plus Not A Corgi's first foals will be 2yr olds when you have a yearling to sell, which is a nice plus as well.

Put it Back @ Bridlewood would give you the same inbreeding to Relaunch and Moon Glitter that you would get from Slew Gin Fizz.
