Cambuscan influences are Ajax, sire of Teddy – Ajax dam/daughter Havresac (Fr) b/m sire Nearco

Also, the influence of thoroughbred strain to French Trotter via Ada (GB), f.f. 19-a 1824, 4th dam Ministere 1875 sire of Intendante (1886 French Trotter) & broodmare sire Jaguar III 1887 – 8th dam french trotter, Idao de Tillard
