🐴Group 2 Roses winner: Scarlet Oak by Kermadec (NZ) from Tactless (AUS) by Commands
The former New Zealand raced filly, a subject pedigree to strains: Sans Tara / Tara where TBL research has indicated the importance for some time. This Tara strain, present to Fuji Kiseki (JPN) – Wolverton & 3rd dam Awards Ceremony (Aus).
The family 13c is attributed to #Haplotye I2a – Iberian type ancestry. Similarly, classification to such affinity type may associate family branches 4 to the 2nd b/m sire Quest for Fame as inherent Pieces of Eight by Relic male line to #GA Man O’ War as also #GA, Hurry On sire sons Precipitation – line #GA that makes its Type through elite mare Eight Carat.

Firstly, we have researched the Juliet branch fairly extensively. We are very sure it is the “I” haplotype”
Secondly the “I” haplotype has a number of Lowe families that are one and the same mare that pre-dates the stud book. The I2a founder mare was probably born 2000+ years ago but has a lot of different Lowe families in it.

Scarlet Oak’s sire Kermadec (sire of Singapore Horse of the Year Lims Kosciuszko ) & 2023 BRC Queensland Oaks winner Amokura (notes b/m sire Quest for Fame) + Willowy (b/m sire Quest for Fame) the winner of 2021 VRC Oaks (Kennedy Oaks) & 2021 VRC Wakeful Stakes has broodmare sire Fuji Kiseki (JPN) and there goes its all-round factor i) Sunday Silence ii) from a Princequillo daughter one n’ same Mill Reef.
Scarlet Oak’s dam by Commands may be best ‘remembered’ as sire of New Zealand Horse of the Year Melody Belle. As sire, his family line is plus known to another great G 1 performer – Kaapstad (Sir Tristram).
Inconspicuous depth: appraise Scarlet Oak’s 5th dam Waltz 4×4 Blandford. Blandford pertinent to sire of Dalmary where her line often applauds Derby runners (f.f. 5-h) – Rough Shod Blue Hen Mare USA + Fairy Bridge dam of Sadlers Wells + Blandford’s son Blenheim sire of Mahmoud. Mahmoud’s presence to 4×3 Danehill and Northern Dancer. Hence Blandford, top and bottom back.
Blandford family 3-o equates #Haplotype L2b1a hence Sunday Silence. The uncommon knowledge is that the family 3 has affinity to family 2-d.It is now noted of family 2d are of 2 designations i) L4 and ii) L2b1a. Danehill has been since stated upon #Haplotype L4 (refer, Credit reference Article above, author B. Rogers). https://www.bloodlines.net/TB/PedigreeMatters/Fams/EquineGeneticGenealogy.htm
While like for like (sire across dam) has the main crux intention: the classic male or female contributors seen to racehorse performances are naturally, drawing crucial gene sets and it is contended, they shall come from any non-specific Haplotype. TBL research however considers probable Dominant and Inherent Type.
