Are you sure? Close up Sadlers Wells, albeit through a son and a daughter? Haven't we got enough Montjeu already Three lined of Special and a further Lin of Dalmary is nice, and I suppose a daughter of Danehill is somewhat useful But this looks a bit predictably boring.

Oops John, you're right. My apologies to the delightful Taranaki trainer. He once trained a horse I bred, but is was useless, not his fault. he also trained Rough Habit, who still has legendary status in Oz.

Nice win in the SA Derby yesterday. 3yo to NH time, with Sadlers Wells top & bottom, and backup lines of Dalmary via Ahonoora and Nureyev. And none other than J R Wheeler in the ownership

A nice bit of linebreeding. 'Giving the sire' his dam line is one of the 'guaranteed to work' ideas in breeding. You will note that Zed's third dam is Cotehele House, and is also the third dam of Opulence, by Danroad. Cotehele House is out of the great Eight Carat, who has played a part in many famous winners of late. To add strength to the mating, we see two lines of Special, via Nureyev and Sadlers Wells. That's enough to set the pedigree alight. Whether Danroad contributes much, I'll leave others to judge Nearco

Why oh why is racing not on free to air TV? I hate Sky with a passion, only reason I have it is for racing. Please, please someone get it back to free to air. And Proisir? Well what about the 2nd and 3rd in the Oaks. (speaking through my pocket, but Vancooga's run from second last was heart attack stuff) Proisir could be the next really good sire.

Thanks Gubellini Your historical stuff is greatly appreciated by us all. Having bred a number of (slow) Yaminan Vitals, I'm kicking myself that I didn't take the time to review the pedigree. he won in a good time, which validates the result.
