OK, broken down, so what are your opinions re his future as a stallion at stud? Lucas Cranoch, Americain, Shocking and now Fiorente. Will we give them all a decent opportunity or will it be try once and then let's see so that they serve very few mares after their initial seasons until they fly or crash?

Jeune did okay, so maybe I'm speaking out of turn, but I find it easier to think these stallions have a better future as sires of steeplechasers.

from a scientific point of view why is it more difficult to pass on elite 'stamina' genes V 'speed' genes... OR is a good staying horse more about management and conditioning V genetic make up?? Is it a fair statement to say a slipper winner x another slipper winner a better chance to produce a slipper winner V melb cup winner x melb winner produce a melb cup winner?

Any Melb. Cup winning stallion should be sent straight to N.Z. where foals are given the time that history shows they need and the pool of mares suits the breeding of more stayers.

Breeding too much to any one trait is doomed to failure. However, given the nature of Australian racing, it is not possible to breed exclusively to stamina. If you bred a horse that performed only at 3200m, there is no chance that they could even qualify to run in a Melbourne Cup. Simply put, to fit within the Australian racing model, any successful "stayer" has to be competitive over a range of distances in order to gain prizemoney to qualify for the bigger races. This model is different to overseas racing, and also the reason why we are now seeing some imported horses, who are qualified by nature of their overseas results, commencing first up over 2000m.

I can't see why he wont be a very good chance of producing some quality 1600m to 2400m horses
Just because he won a cup means nothing, he did have a very good turn of foot.

When you know just enough to be dangerous, stats can make you look stupid.... but, the TrueNicks reports that I was looking at for Maxios' first crop listed higher than average SW/Runners figures for Shirley Heights & his descendants - up around 18% for the Darshaan branch. The benchmark (Monsun & anything) in these reports was 8%.
If these Monsun stats are any sort of guide, there might not be enough of that line out here for Fiorente to give it a real rip in the early days... despite the suitability of his bottom half?

dont know how good your ref material is Red Hare but its well worth looking at the Shirley Heights x Sadlers Wells cross. huge numbers when it comes to stake winners.

Date Posted: 08 Jul 2015 at 5:24pm
What I had meant to say was that the Monsun/Darshaan cross runs at 18%, which is above average compared to both the Monsun/Shirley Heights (Elegant Air, etc) cross and the 8% (Monsun/anything) benchmark.... Again, just based on the report I was looking at. I've no preference to the source, it's just where the links took me.
The Sadler's Wells/Fairy King/Nureyev triumvirate were all around the 8% benchmark, which was above their figures as broodmare sires. There's plenty of that out here.
Daughters of High Chaparral seem well placed?
Either way, I think Fiorente will leave a lasting legacy. Perhaps not as a 2yo influence, but there will be classic winners & Cup winners I'm sure.

Three catalogued in Tassie, one in Perth.
All up, he could be looking at a sales average of less than $40k, quite possibly less than $20k if the balance go through the VOBIS Gold sale.
Not a lot of meat on the bone after $17,600 service fee.

Great to see the mighty Fiorente get his 1st 2yo winner today for Weir at Ballarat. Lovely big colt who ran good time and Weiry seemed pretty high on his future.
I think Fiorente has only had the 2 runners so far and this one and Templar for Michelle Payne both look good.
Love my young middle distance/staying type sires and have a share in a Fiorente. He had a turn of foot as well as stamina and i think he has a nice chance.

He's a very interesting cross of Encosta and Zabeel blood. With so many of our mares carrying that bloodline should at least have a chance. Like Bletchingly and Danzig nothing shows up on the page except that they are from the same female line. Well he is a 5h line with a second branch of 5h and so are Sadler's Wells, Fairy King and Nureyev so plenty of chances for that cross to work. He also has two sons of Danzig way back in his pedigree to show that blood seems to work also.

Early days but is there a sex balanced line-breeding trend emerging with his winners to date? Dams carrying daughters of Bahram figure in 6 of his 9 winners i.e. Stars of Carrum Alessandro Mangione Moor Gait Lord Gladstone Continuation In 5 of the 6 the daughter of Bahram comes through Summertime, the other (Alessandro) comes through Galileo. Star of Carrum's pedigree is perhaps additionally reinforced by including a sex balanced line of Bahram's son Persian Gulf. Also of interest the sire of Summertime, Precipitation is a half brother to Persian Gulf. Two of the remaining 3 (Hawkshot and Fariha) are out of mares by Encosta De Lago.

Interesting to see Bahram's name pop up again - in particular the influence of Galileo's female line.
Swynford went through a very tidy analysis in the Frankel thread: http://forum.thoroughbredvillage.com.au/frankel_topic39772.html" rel="nofollow - http://forum.thoroughbredvillage.com.au/frankel_topic39772.html
Not sure why you would come in here branded 'HH88' (there are far more sensible ways to be a Nationalist), but the Bahram thread is an interesting one to tug at. The fact that Galileo did not go well down here is one of the primary reasons that our staying stocks are struggling so badly.
Fiorente, Adelaide, Highland Reel & even Rock Hero all stand at reasonable price points for the breed-to-race crowd. Tavistock (through a son & a bit further back , but right on the female line) is in NZ - as is the great Gay Poss family.
We might not be as far out of the game as we think.

I love this horse. I was on him for the derby. This is the first time I have seen his pedigree, surely they will aim for the cup next year, look at all that stamina! Anabaa, Jeune, At Talaq and Monsun, WOWEE!!!! At stud, provides the perfect cross for Danehill lined mares to add some extra sprint.

Hello, interesting Observation regarding Bahram and the "Double Life" Family. I had a closer look at her ped. Moonlight in the damline is bred 4x4x5 Bahram an her dam "Lorraine Lee" 3x3 Persian Gulf/Precipitation or 4x4 Double Life. The Granddam of Stars of Carrum (by Fiorente) is Jameela by Jeune-Kalaglow-Doubleton, the FS of Persian Gulf, her Granddaughter Jameela is linebred 8x8x8 Persian Gulf/Precipation/Doubleton FB/FS/HB. Btw, Sonsa (Damline Kalaglow) is a reverse of the Nearco/Hyperion nick. Fiorente traces via Tamerlane to Persian Gulf-Bahram. A Sireline it seems only was extended in Germany. regards, Ticino

Could the Bahram cross be more because of the presence of his 3rd dam Concertina?
Concertina was the dam of Plucky Liege who in turn threw some important and relevant sires including Admiral Drake, Bois Roussel, Bull Dog and Sir Gallahad. All 4 of these stallions appear in the pedigree of Fiorente at least once along with Dastur who is a half brother of Bahram.
Just having a look at the dam of Stars of Carrum there are 5 or 6 instances of Bahram but there are 14 instances of Plucky Liege. And I wasn't even looking at it with a fine-toothed comb. I may have missed some.

Also it would be easy to put it to the test although too early as you'd have to give it another 2 years when his 1st and 2nd crops have fully matured and 3rd crop are 3yo's.
There are quite a few sires who carry Bahram such as At Talaq, Kalaglow, Anabaa and Noble Bijou. Just a matter of seeing how many of the dams carried one of these in their pedigrees and in turn seeing how many of them are winners, stakeswinners etc.

I'm not exactly working from memory Carioca. Big Game is a great speed influence IMHO and a magic influence if you can strengthen it in a pedigree and hence whenever i see it in a pedigree I look a bit closer . I had to scramble for 1962 Bloodstock breeders Review for your question and yes your memory is spot on again .Hethersett fell in the derby . Reading the story four or five horses fell and Larkspur with Sellwood on board had to violently swerve to avoid the pile up .

Hello, may I point out Big Game is to find in "Aggressor", dam Sire of Acatenango, Sire of Dalicia and dam of Animal Kingdom. He stud a few seasons in AUS. As already known Bahram appears via Espresso (by Acropolis, stood in Germany) sire of Anatvka, dam of the FS's Allegretta (Galileo) and Alya (Adlerflug) and Antuco/Mondrian/Beeshi. Espresso had a HB named King of Babylon (by King of the Tudors) sent to AUS. Btw, in 2016 a book was published about abovementioned Sire, by Peter Corbett: Bahram & the Aga Khan III, published by Rinaldo Publishing, Stowmarket, ISBN 987-0-9566642-1-1 A lot of Information, not only about his racing career, but with much info about his offspring (Sire and dams). I paid about 30 English Pounds for it. Probably hard to find in your part of the world. regards, Ticino

Mannza can be added to Fiorente's list of winners who's dams carry daughters of Bahram. In this instance there is also a daughter of Persian Gulf.
A very good-looking horse was Bahram - possibly a shade on the leg, like so many god racers - and his performances were impeccable. He was far and away the best of his age at two and three years old, winning all nine races value 43,086 pounds. His success included the 2000 Guineas, the Derby and the St. Leger, and he never new defeat. He left the racecourse an absolutely sound horse and started at stud as a 4-year-old at a fee of 500 guineas a mare. As a personal opinion I would place him as near the best of my time. It was not only the easy manner in which he won his races, and it must be confessed that his generation as a whole were not particularly good, but the horse himself was such an attractive individual. Attribution: Bloodstock Breeding by Sir Charles Leicester Published by Odhams Press Limited London. 1957.
Faux Tirage ( by Big Game) was mentioned earlier in the thread. He stood at Okawa Stud in Hawke's Bay and his race record follows: At two years won both starts - the Granville Stakes at Ascot and the Rous Memorial Stakes at Newmarket. Won 3 times at three years including the Newmarket Stakes, St. James Palace Stakes and ran third in the Eclipse Stakes, his only defeat.

Mayor... I'm posting these pics on behalf of HH88.
A closer look at Stars of Carrum suggests the effective line-breeding is now one generation closer from Bahram, that is Persian Gulf.
A sex balanced line breeders dream with a son and daughter of Persian Gulf plus Doubleton, his full sister. Should potentially work for both colts and fillies.
Very nice trifecta.

A considerable amount of research is required to arrive at (in this case) the position that at this early stage a disproportionally high number of his winners to date have balanced line breeding to Bahram/Persian Gulf. All of his winners named in the thread have been subject to the same degree of analysis as Stars of Carrum so the answer to your question is yes.

Hello, I dont't want tp praise myself, I pointed to the "triple" of linebreeding in the ped of "Stars of Carrum" about a fortnight ago. Interestingly "Kalaglow" is the Sire of "Sternkönig" in Germany, from the same damline as Star Appeal. I i remember corretly, he was sent to Germany, but died pretty soon afterwards, Standaan (Zeddaan), I spot in some peds, belongs to the same damline, more descents are Meld and Charlottown, Declan's Moon, Ramonti, Montmartre regards.

Way too early to tell regarding this 'trend'.
The only horse that has put his hand up as above average is Stars of Carrum. There are quite a few horses with Bahram or Persian Gulf that are not winners or even placegetters.
It is all about opportunity and how many have the cross and then how many win or are stakeswinners. I would say that we'd have to wait till the end of the current crop of 3yo's finish their 4yo season before we can have a large enough sample of winners or stakeswinners to make an assumption.

Lots of inbreeding to Northern Dancer due to the way of bloodlines today also. Many never win. But maybe the tail female line is also important don't you think.
Piemonte is one of a couple of Fiorente's I marked to follow. From the female line of Street Cry and from a Canny Lad mare it seemed a nice mix. A Darshaan f x m and Konigsstuhl over a line of Sadler's Wells in the female. Danzig/Bletchingly cross. Plenty of catches so the hope one comes through. Hopefully he can go on with the job.

I haven't forgotten Alessandro djebel but he has yet to prove himself and that is why I would wait another season and a half before seeing a trend.
There are many others who can't run or haven't had a run yet that have the 'trend' and we can not overlook that fact.
And as Furious mentioned piemonte is from tail female of street cry. I also notice Mannza has Street cry as broodmare sire. Could street cry be a trend? Street cry has good stats with sadlers wells family and fiorente tail female is same as sadlers. Or could it be troy that is the key who appears in street cry and fiorente? Or could it be riverman that is the key? He appears in street cry but also anabaa the damsire of stars of carrum.
Riverman's sire is never bend who appears twice in pedigree of desert bloom the dam of fiorente.
Riverman/never bend/lalun look more of a key to my eye.

Alessandro that is. Also has another dose of Never Bend-ie. two instances of Never Bend in his dam.
My point being that there would be a lot less horses with Riverman in the dam side or even Never Bend than having Bahram or Persian Gulf in the dam side and the percentage of winners and stakeswinners would be much higher with Riverman/Never bend when crossed with Fiorente.

Take it easy H.
My point is that there are a lot of dams that have got bahram in their pedigree. Statistical analysis is needed to see if it is a trend or an aberration.
More to the point as I have stated a couple of times, more time is needed to sort oout whether these 3yo's and the younger ones are any good. At this stage only Stars of carrum has put his hand up but he still has to come up as an autumn 3yo. Alessandro is showing some promise and all the others still have to step up.
But there maybe a better trend with Riverman or Never bend that are present in a lot fewer broodmares. Again what I am suggesting is a trend that I have noticed but it needs to also stand up to statistical analysis.
This is a forum for ideas and discussions to hopefully help people make a better or more informed decision.

Gaj herself has a history of producing staying winners from modest stock, so this youngster should get every chance.

Carlaxna's dam was a Listed winner over 9 furlongs and has produced a Gp 1 winner over 1600m.
Reckon you might be on a winner with this colt Gaj.
