When Japan purchased and announced California Chrome for stud, it high-lighted how astute breeding follows – just stick to the key-progenitor strains within.

Though a long time since reflecting how chrome, turns to Gold: California Chrome the breeding nutshell stands in Buckpasser through the daughter Numbered Account to CC’s dam Love the Chase, from female family A4. And to that great sire Seattle Slew, the dynamo strain maternal conduit La Troienne f.f. 1-x

His sire, Lucky, to the siring line Pulpit (sire of Tapping into – TAPIT to his dams, Olympia and that ‘PrinceLY’ Princequillo, toughness & constitution.

Bring them together and those powerful class of progenitors direct to decide the future.

When Storm The Court won the 2 year old Breeders, his back strains came to me, very familiar.

TBL held breath hoping aficionados might spot the similar binding genetic pattern as it goes upon California Chrome’s.

Storm the Court – (Court Vision by Gulch/Mr Prospector) from My Tejana Storm ex-Tejano Run.

The genotype fixes upon 2 x’s Buckpasser female family 1-x and add to that the strain 1-x assigned to Tejano (USA), the 2nd maternal sire.

Now…let’s spot the interesting STRAIN factoring to the A 4 family as belonging to Gulch’s female family and spot also – Swaps (A4). Swaps →Khaled→Hyperion.

Compare California Chrome’s tap-root female family A 4

TBL considers Olympia/Heliopolis/Hyperion siring (as strains/traits are the keys to American Pharoah pows a ‘Grand Slam’ finding Olympia to the female family 4p.

This is the same female family (4p) as Storm the Court’s. Olympia and My Tejana (dam of Storm the Court) both follow to a dam called Careless. And do note, Heliopolis (Hyperion) to his daughter Iberia, dam of Riva Ridge as My Tejana, 3rd dam sire.

Present to both CC and STC is the Irish sire, the great Caro and he is a genetic force to be reckoned with due to all goodies of ye olde genetics. Take a look why!

As always, recognizing depth and superior patterns when todays racing/breeding media cast its doubt due to unfavorable or said, ‘non-commercial’ sire when its those awesome strains which take opportunity to selection and finding quality.

Respect that.

Accelerate (USA) – the engine

Superior performers, genetic profile patterns: Accelerate (USA) by Lookin at Lucky (USA), ex- Issues (SA) from Awesome Again (CAN) just can not come any clearer.

https://www.pedigreequery.com/accelerate11

Firstly however, familiarizing by female family indexes, also known as Bobinski family tables or, as was known by Bruce Lowe numbers allows every pedigree planner a comprehension to a core value of maternal compatibility.untitledEssentially, bloodlines belong to family: the homozygote attracts, heterozygote complicates where the fusion may go –  remember, as the ol’ master would say, many bloodlines are too wide. Thoroughbred Breeding: A MASTER OF TIME

Unfortunate for the racing horse the greater heterozygous element, unsuspectingly, shall dictate disappointment.

Evaluation following descendant sire alone, say back to Northern Dancer duplications, with Mr Prospector where these crosses as time-proven ‘success’ prototype had its maternal lines evolve, like a wave-cycle (evolutionary phase) then only to compete for the fresh blood, as it does so in the ‘wild’.

Conventional pedigree structure, at only recognizing in-breeding (crosses) fall ‘short’.

Line-breeding prefers… quizzingly by quality, rather than numbers reinforcement.

While all analysis has ‘each-to-their-own’ objective, the pedigree terrain worth reviewing reveals distinct individuality of broodmare’s inheritances.

Old fashioned breeding or of those breeders… knew why/how/when to infuse traits,  to outcross for new upgraded generations. This course, a whole cycle i.e. 7generations, to naturally infuse, that particular key quality.

Thus, distinct individuality is to establish the ‘core’ maternal genus type. It provides an ultimate key, the fore-telling of what goes where & how pedigree mating, strikes the superior individual.

The mission statement: enforcement, uniqueness, superiority of the female breeder belong deeply to her predecessor infusions.

The relevancy of this is conquering.

The bloodline sire strength which was/is building, climaxing or, its diffusing/weakening effects de-establishing it.

Utilizing familial traits as KEY assigns that breeding via female/family dynamics retain extraordinary, breeding paucity success.

Thus subject: Accelerate (USA) via the female family A13, compels same, of inherited familial traits, (hence performance ability) to none other than American Pharoah – American Pharoah pows a ‘Grand Slam’.

Through…Accelerate (ff A13) pedigree:-  5th dam Smartaire (USA) infused by the honest, Olympia (USA) (ff-4p). Note presence of Smartaire, via Smart Strike the paternal grandsire to Accelerate, thus doubling Olympia (USA), via his dam Miss Dolphin (ff 4p).

If we view these superior individuals as trait-bearers, view American Pharoah 6th maternal, a dam named Miami Mood (USA), her sire Greek Game USA, (ff-A13) by sire Olympia!!!

Another particular common to both (Accelerate & American Pharoah) has the female family 23-b. The importance of ff 23-b, forefront to American bloodstock breeding complete, it is a distinguishable bloodline breeding support structure, all time.

Trailing the genus, as type, (genotype) upon dominant predecessor traits is the holy-grail to bloodstock breeding. 

By Accelerate’s example, the ff 23-b presence is noted by Smart Strike (A.’s paternal grandsire. Best Turn (USA) the 3rd dam’s paternal grandsire, Smartaire – paternal dam’s sire.

Compare of, (ff 23-b) element to American Pharoah’s 3rd dam. Hence, the superior genetic affiliations.!

If we consider these collective family blood contributors, trait bearers, genus-family the peculiarity of bloodstock breeding finds an interesting dimension.

But pedigrees do not stop there. What of all other major contributors? The….. Raise A Native, Nashua, Turn-To (IRE) with & via, their dams strains.

The necessity to breeding, is… only-the-best-will-do.

The specific aim is a resilient animal which encompasses ALL NECESSARY attributes to its constitution, temperament, racing and performance.

In an effort to convey how intense detail has the peculiar x-factor, consider these trustworthy words from chapter – (Towards A Unified Theory of Thoroughbred Breeding , The Australian & New Zealand Thoroughbred by Ross du Bourg).

I therefore resolved to hand-pick about one in four of my Supreme Shapers and enthrone them as the ‘greater gods’ on the equine equivalent of Mount Olympus. These exalted ancestors form an elite within an elite….

The extreme rigour of the criteria governing selection to my Olympian class of ancestors…….

I had a lot of Croziers that ran good. Fred Hooper

Industry people…. how do you recognise a perfect pedigree?

– 2 Keeneland’s yearling sale & spot the boy, $2.2 million Godolphin purchased yearling colt – American Pharoah/ Kindle by Indian Charlie.

 The genotype maps phenotype faultless.

– yep, the perfection.

We say it over and over again, its about maternal families sitting upon those genotype dynamics – pinpoint where pedigrees will distinctively fuse.

Female families are pattern-collectives; they hold appreciation to the greater pedigree template & as to what actually hits the ‘mark’.

Few years back we blogged American Pharoah pows a ‘Grand Slam’ to sight the gold:  Olympia (USA). 81833fbe34042f09855200306171350f[1]

The article went short on other genetic contributors but nevertheless here, the A.P colt blends key parentage through maternal lines with ‘exactness’.

Down to business end.

Take note…..Olympia (USA) 7sx7sx8sx7Dx9d thru Little Blessing (USA), Tri-Jet(USA), 2xCrozier (USA), Greek Game (USA), Crème Dela Crème (USA). (yes, these key genetic role-players DO NOT APPEAR on a regular catalogue print out…you need to get into detail & depths of pedigree.)

Next: Pioneer of the Nile (AP’s sire), the maternal line ff-21a, where his sire Empire Maker grand dam’s sire, In Reality (USA) has ff-21a to Indian Charlie (USA), ff-21a, the sire of dam Kindle …..ALL from ancestress ‘Lonely’ (GB). This detailed information needs to be viewed @ 5th remove. Notice the in-breeding Olympia (USA) through AP’s dam, Littleprincessemma (USA) to colt’s dams sire – Indian Charlie.

++++plus….. Pioneer of the Nile 4th dam sire (ff 21-a) sire Olympia (USA).

Collectively complete, that’s how it works.

Olympia had the blazing speed that American breeders respond to. Legends of the Turf, Edward L. Bowen.

American Pharoah pows a ‘Grand Slam’

It surely is a wondrous thing when a thoroughbred is a world No.1, and then ensures his name is in racing history like the great Secretariat and he himself will be duly immortalized. American Pharaoh’s achievements won’t need to be retold here: the breeding is the ‘thing’. There is concentration and depth to American Pharoah, which dare I say is sublime.

This is how I love pedigrees ‘cause I am saying to myself “how did you do that”. I love how the pedigree fuels (at detail) how/where/why female strains impact potentcy to the folding and evolving development with comparable type to type.

It has the strain-integration theory written all over it. If you are confused by strain-integration it is simply the affinity and cross-relationship of female families. Once understood it becomes easy-peasy.

Olympia, son of Miss Dolphin (ff strain 4-o) fusing through at the 7th remove at the matri-line zones where a generational cycle starts to ‘peak’ the world champion and that folks has the magic of genetic penetration.

Olympia appears in 4 lines through. Olympia was a speedy champ but as a breeding genetic freak he appears to those pedigrees which are stamping the global thoroughbred ground onwards. They are Danehill, Dynaformer, Unbridled’s Song, Smart Strike and of course Pioneer of the Nile, American Pharoah’s sire. (And, just as I like it)….. the fusion is working through the each bottom matri-line from sire and dam.

Yet, more gravity is achieved through co-relationships via ff-9 branches families.  The co-relationship has worked since inception of the thoroughbred because fundamentally its foundation.

It is a pattern systemized and works noticeably favourably once recognized.

Dominant strains for dominant genes.

“….people weren’t going to go crazy about something (Pioneer of the Nile) that was unproven. As it turned out, he ended up not hitting his reserve, not because people didn’t love him, but because Mr. Zayat fell in love with him more than everybody else did.”
