A friend of mine purchased an unraced filly from Jayeff B Stables by the name of Lend. She's by Coronado's Quest and is tail female to Grey Flight. Ironically he didnt have the money (She was obviously named appropriately) to breed her to the stallion he wanted in Louis Quatorze. He offered me half interest in the foal and full breeding rights if its a filly. On paper, it seems an extremely interesting cross with lots of inbreeding most notably of interest to the two great producers Shenanigans and Grey Flight.
Thoughts on this cross? Physically he says they match up perfectly which is why he's so determined to send her to him but he has 10 horses in training and 6 other broodmares and didnt want to pay the stud fee on his own if he didnt have to.
I remember reading that intensely inbred fillies often make the best broodmares. I wouldnt call the possible foal "intensely" inbred, but it is reinforcing the broodmare blood in the pedigrees.
Would love some insight before I bite!!!
Thoughts on this mating???

Studs I would consider
1. Silver Ghost by Mr. Prospector-Misty Gallore by Halo it would give you 2x4 Mr. Prospector, 5x5 Grey Flight, and 5x6 Almahmoud. $7500 Stud Fee
2. Repent by Louis Quatorze-Baby Grace by Cipayo It would give you balanced line breeding of Grey Flight 5x5 and Shenanigans 5x5 and 4x4 Northern Dancer and besides on Repent's mare line gives you somewhat of an outcross with the Argentina bloodlines.
3. Millennium Wind by Cryptoclearance-Bali Babe by Drone $7500 Stud fee line breeding on Mr. Prospector 4x4, 5x5 Grey Flight and 5x5x5 Bold Ruler
4. Intidab by Phone Trick-Alqwani by Mr. Prospector line breeding Mr. Prospector 3x4 and Shenanigans 5x5. He is the sire of Greater Good and standing for $3500.
5. Rubiyat by Rubiano-Blushing Madame by Blushing Groom $1500 Stud fee. It would give you balance line breeding of Mr. Prospector 4x4 and 4x5 Northern Dancer and 5x5 Tom Rolfe.
A horse that I would seriously consider is Bop standing for $2500 and he is by Rahy-Golden Guinea by Fappiano line breeding on Almahmoud 6x6x6, Mr. Prospector 4x4, Northern Dancer 4x4, and where your mares has great mares in her pedigree and you would add great mares Glorious Song, Ballade, Killaloe, Cosmah, Aspidistra, and Iltis.
There are other mare in your mares pedigree to line breed on like Key Bridge, Pocohantas, Flower Bowl, Natalma, Almahmoud,Continue, and so on. Peace Rules would be an interesting cross line breeding Forty Niner 3x3 and Natalma 5x5 and Almahmoud 6x6x7.
As far as inbred mares they seem to cross well on an outcross.
