Broadsiding – the remarkable Godolphin bred Australian thoroughbred – a four-time Group 1 winner, and crowned Australia’s Champion Two-Year-Old after securing victories Champagne Stakes and J.J. Atkins Stakes.
As a three-year-old, he continued his success with wins in the Golden Rose and Rosehill Guineas. He is now retired to stud. He stands at Darley’s Kelvinside Stud in New South Wales, with a stud fee of $66,000 for the 2025 breeding season.
Broadsiding is sired by highly esteemed Too Darn Hot, one of the world’s leading stallions, and his dam is Speedway, a mare by Street Cry.
We noted a few of his offspring when sold at NZ Bloodstock sales, and whether colt or filly, they were a great deal at any price since his genetics will stay strong.
One may conduct an overview genetic survey to any of Broadsiding’s back-lines; all simply excel superb, and it is also evidenced by the lineage of Australian and New Zealand predecessors that exhibit equally robust genetic attributes.
It is here, the ‘good’ Eye goes with powerhouse 5th dam – 1977 New Zealand mare Gold Hope. https://www.pedigreequery.com/gold+hope – 1st Railway H (NZ-G1), Hawke’s Bay Challenge S (NZ-G2), Racing Personalities S (NZ-L)
3rd NZ Thoroughbred Breeders S (NZ-G2)
1982:
1st All Age S (AUS-G1), Doncaster H (AUS-G1), NZ Thoroughbred Breeders’ S (NZ-G2), QTC Katie’s Cup (AUS-G3)
These are the supreme bloodlines and should readers taken Cyllene‘s influences (link here) to recognitions of G Haplotype and exactly why it services the elite racehorse performer. It is exploitable when to realize it is these listed as genetic glue responsible – Cyllene, Selene, Teddy, Bay Ronald influences banded. (new to add Hermit, see further below)
Importantly the prime genetic sequences make horse competitive
The G haplotype in Thoroughbreds has been studied in relation to the EPA18 gene sequence, which is located on chromosome 18. This region is significant for traits like muscle composition and performance. Research has identified specific SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) within this region that are associated with racing ability and other phenotypic traits.
– @distaff Gold Hope saturated with Cyllene through 3x Fairway. The Cylleen/Fairway male line to John’s Hope by Wilkes – Pharis 4×4 Cyllene – Nizami (Fr) >Cyllene + Bay Ronald – Donatello – Honeyway – Sabaean Fairway, distaff Selene – Bay Ronald.
Through our recent TBL posts, comments the built-in Type band revolves to itself. 3rd dam of Danzig, Steady Aim (G) (3×4 Cyllene + 2x Carbine ie Martha Lynn/Clemence) where Danzig (sire of Danehill) maintains the framework observing Northern Dancer tail-male to Phalaris – Native Dancer inclusive of Fair Play (ie family 9e @ G Haplotype) – Bay Ronald through Mahmoud – where Natalma is 5×5 Fair Play + Spearmint by Carbine.
It can raise a question what compels other classic and recognizable influences on pedigree. It cannot be directly answered, however curiously we found by Haplotype co-affinity branch through Polymelus (Cyllene) to Hermit (Newminster) (Credit Reference below… see Figure 2 –
In this scientific light, we find the great influences @ Hermit to Brueleur dam Basse Terre (Fr). Brueleur is the grand-sire of #BT Byerley Turk male line Tourbillon, sire of Djebel whose dam Loika (Fr) has Bay Ronald/Teddy/Ayshire 2x Martha Lynn. Further fun fact: Zabeel’s sire Sir Tristram to Princequillo/Selene through Minoru is Cyllene x Hermit daughter, dam Mother Siegel.
Now to line up Delsey 3rd dam of Too Darn Hot. Delsey 4×5 Tourbillon – 3x Teddy – 5×5 Pharos tail male to Cyllene. @ Broadsiding, to Mr Prospector @4×5 Teddy also of the Sickle from Selene male line. In Distaff Zabeel by Sir Tristram 5×4 Princequillo to 4th dam by Minoru by Cyllene/Hermit – 5×4 Sunny Boy by Jock, a Teddy male line, 3x Bay Ronald – 3rd dam by Friar Marcus/Cicero/Cyllene. Broadsiding distaff as discussed above re Gold Hope (NZ).
Broadsiding has a pedigree that simply Explodes! It will be a very exciting future for this young sire and equally rewarding to watch how his progeny cast an excellent type into the racing world.
