Hi All,
I am going to have to choose to breed one of these two mares this year as I am limited by funds. I will be choosing between 4 stallions. Needs Further Alpine Eagle Wordsmith Clangalang the two mares are - Malandrina - Brilliant Leader x The Spoiler(Pride of Kellina) Sh'bourne Kahlua - Brilliant Leader x River Doll (Bao Lack) I already have taken Malandrina to a staying stallion in Savoire Vivre only get to a plugger. I now have two Wordys from her. the first trialled yesterday and ran a nice second . He was not pushed up the straight as he is only 8 weeks in work today. the rising two year old on type looks a beauty but looks is all we have at the moment. the second mare has a Tough Speed filly who turned out huge and is yet to win and she has a nice yet smallish Needs Further filly(rising two year old) at the breakers so none the wiser re this cross yet. l like the cross with Kahlua and Clangalang a lot however the downside is they take time. with the new Tasbred scheme coming into play they are only eligible until they turn 5 so this is a risk on return to allow us to continue in the game. Alpine Eagle yet proven but perhaps a mainland type stallion - unknown yet Needs Further - putting pace into his progeny with two two year olds breaking sprint track records. Wordy -Mr Consistency./ sensible progeny thanks for your thoughts. Cheers Slowdown |

Slowdown, both mares are hard to match from a line breeding perspective.
If you can cop a 3f x 3m Danehill cross I'd be going to Needs Further, and you'll probably get a discount if you book both mares to him. Plus I reckon he's the best of the three established sires.

thanks kindly S.C. I knew you would get on the job. thats great advice and yes i can cop that. The stable filly Pateena Arena is sex balanced to Danehill which appears to be the most successful of the duplications so far.

Sorry slowdown out yesterday and today - school holidays. And now working but I think Needs Further is the best for speed and family also. But I haven't checked the pedigrees out so only just thinking that way without a proper look.

I know not quite the same as 3f x 3m Danehill but both Luger (HK Derby winner) and Prompt Response have a 3m x 3m Danehill off the top of my head

I could not bred a double danehill even if free- those stats are just horrible and for me that's a no brainer
ALpine eagle for mine was mentally unstable and also unsound so not sure how people breed to a horse like that- albeit on his day was a star id be using Mawingo-A Magic Millions staff member first told me about them as the best types they have seen by a first season sire full stop since the I am invincibles. He said physically they where STAMPED. Ive brought into 2 of them (shares) and reports are both well above average Looking at his pedigree they also seem to be going to be 1200-1600m horses as his sire Tertullian is more this way. His female line is sensational. The other aspect if not for getting a poor ride from Williams he should be a Group 1 winner at 1400m beating All too Hard - his also the only Group 1 winner down there Ive brought a mare specifically this year to send to him and I notice they have sold ok Wordy is ok but his a Tassie stallion only- hasn't really done it on the mainland and has enough to say he should have by now Looking at your mares they are good tough and sound families so id want to continue that trait and not introduce unsoundness |

thanks for that Bushy. yes he is an impressive looking stallion. I saw him at the stallion parade again the other day and he looks very strong. I just want to see what he throws first and if they go as good as he looks I will have a mare over there. I hope he goes for the McCulloch family. they have contributed so much to racing in Tasmania.

Interesting (in Malandrina) the Pride of Kellina cross to Todman in Clangalang. You also get the 1w cross of Rousseau's Dream and Alycidon and Copenhagen and Bellotto. But as you said slow to mature. Then again that can also depend on the female line.
But then again you 5h blood in Malandrina has a cross to Needs Further (Fairy King), Alpine Eagle (Sadler's Wells & Nureyev) or Wordsmith (Perugino) so she is the easiest to mate of the two mares. Her line has so many ideas on what works and the cross back does. Canny Lad and 1-n & 13a mixes work. Well you don't have all that down there but you already have a 1-n and a 13a line in your mare. And with Needs Further you have the Danehill/Bletchingly cross which gave us Canny Lad. Bushy as with the Canny Lad cross many of the Danehill crosses included a mare by him. This is not on with a stallion who has something incorrect in the legs. THey have done it so many times with the Canny Lad mares that I could scream. No closer that 3x3 and these two mares are from sound stock but if either is over at the knees then you wouldn't do it. The Needs Further, Alpine Eagle & Wordsmith/Sh'Bourne Kahlua also gives you the Bold Reason/Never Bend cross which I also like to see. So really you then have to decide which stallion has produced the best results so far at stud. You could wait to see if Alpine Eagle gets sound stock. You can also get that cross in Mawingo through his dam. Also the 1-s female line has produced the sire of Crawford who was a good stakes class horse from this family back in the 80's. So he is one to keep your eyes on for Malandrina.

Sh'bourne Kahlua is from a wonderful female line with four straight stakes winners in her direct female line which is something that you don't often see. It is from an overseas family, and of course this always raises issues as to whether the idea is to breed to some of the influences that have worked internationally, or trying to breed to local influences. In the case of this mare, Alpine Eagle appeals as a quality mating, although by an unproven stallion. The mating sees duplications of both Shirley Heights, who we see has a duplication in turn of the stallion, Blandford, and Kris, who sees his grand damsire as Crepello, who also hails from the Blandford line. Blandford, and in particular, Crepello, have had significant impact in the pedigrees of some of the family stakes winners, and Dusty Dollar is interestingly a daughter of Kris. Based on the original criteria, this is certainly the mating that I would be pursuing.
Malandrina it is fair to say, is from a far more moderate female family. The most recent stakes winners are Daasrae and Sherona, again both in the direct female line and both winners of the Toowoomba Cup. Before that we have to go back to a mare called Carbelle by Carbine, who produced four stakes winners including full siblings Ebullition (Caulfield Stakes and Newmarket) and Effervescence (Coongy). Without going into the full story behind my reasoning, I suggest that a more aggressive breeding strategy is probably required with this mare. Needs Further has the close duplication of Danehill similar to Phalaris in the pedigree of Daasrae but certainly not as strong a pedigree as that female. It is always a concern to me that a duplication like this is through a son like Brilliant Leader. I think I can safely say that stallion is not among the best sons of Danehill we have ever seen, so we are effectively breeding in part to something of a weakness in the pedigree. Nevertheless, the stallion pool in Tasmania is not very deep, so it is probably a mating that is as good as we will find there at present. A left field option not that far on the mainland is Onemorenomore, a solid enough stallion that in my view probably offers a better than average chance of producing a winner from the family.

thanks Progold for your research and input . really appreciated. it is great to hear your thoughts on Kahlua and her family as her race record doesn't indicate how good her trainers thought she could have been and her half sister sh'bourne spirit probably shows the family can still throw good performers.
Great to hear that you like the female line. We continue to have fillies along this line with two fillies from Kahlua and a Spirit's first foal being a Needs Further filly. The dam River Doll at around 24 lives a great life here with a handfeed and hay everyday, regular trims,teeth etc. very close to my favourite horse. Malandrina as you say is probably a good performer from a pretty weak family. he first won one race and I have two Wordsmith geldings with one very close to racing. time will tell with her progeny . A lot to consider. thanks for your time and input. Slowdown |

One more thought on Malandrina because she is a difficult prospect. We used to talk a lot about mating plans for mares, but now this seems to be out of the window. The mating with Clangalang is largely an outcross, but overall a lot of the influences seem fairly compatible. There is a chance of producing a reasonable racing prospect, but the real focus is to breed a filly, who then would become a much better broodmare prospect giving plenty of options when choosing a suitable mate. Just have a look at the success of Bellotto as a broodmare sire, and there will be an opportunity to breed with many of Tasmania's future stallion prospects. Malandrina's daughter by Savoire Vivre would herself be relatively restricted in choice of mates.

Toorak Toff enters the discussions, I quite like the distant matches here largely an outcross and has had limited success via Iconoclasm,. largely a flop on the mainland.

thanks to everyone for their input too. Alpine Eagle got the nod in the end but I still will be watching what Mawingo's do and of course Needs Further is throwing some good ones. I already have a filly by him from her so and she has been broken in. should be back in work shortly. What happens there will influence my next choice.
