SKY CLASSIC MARE

I'd appreciate your ideas in mating Potriky (Sky Classic-Potri Clara (Potrillazo), considering that the stallion must be in Argentina.

I do not know your constraints as to location within Argentina or your budget, but on pedigree alone I like SEBI HALO with her.

This son of Southern Halo is from what I see as THE powerhouse female line in that country, whose descendants regularly visit the winners circle of Gr-1 races across the continent and into South Africa and the USA.

This mating has linebreeding within 5 generations to Northern Dancer via Nijinsky and Northern Sea (successful in 1999 Gr-1 Pacific Classic winner General Challenge) and to Outing Class via the 2nd dam of Sky Classic and the dam of Sebi Halo's broodmare sire. I do not know if linebreeding to Outing Class through two daughters has been tried or has been successful. Further on down the line, there is linebreeding to the blue hen mare Almahmoud via her daughters Cosmah and Natalma, and linebreeding to the excellent Argentine sire Atlas.

If they are still standing and within your budget, both Southern Halo and Candy Stripes would be good pedigree fits with your mare.
