Dancing Rain to New Approach, is it good idea?

Postby hyphen1969 » Mon Dec 09, 2013 9:24 am

Oaks winner Dancing Rain (Danehill Dancer) will be mated to New Approach (Galileo), what do you think about it?

It looks like a new version o famous nick Galileo x Danehill, but for my opinion there will be another important point - inbreeding to Ahonoora and another 15 BT horses (you must be loged):

Or if you are not loged, there are BT winners:

New Approach still have only 1 BT winner with mare from Danehill sireline

Statistics of mating New Approach with mares by Danehill are very poor: 12 foals of racing age, 5 starters, 2 winners, no blacktype horse

Ahonoora was an under estimated stallion and it wasn't to be expected that he would be such a success at stud. He started at the Irish National Stud with a 1.750 Irish Pounds fee in 1980.
The foal will be 3x4 inbred to Ahonoora.
