Linebreeding to Danzig?

Postby ZiaLand » Mon Jun 27, 2005 4:10 pm

Would a hypo showing a sex-balanced 4x4 to Danzig (through a son and a daughter) be considered a good thing, or are there soundness or other issues to beware of?

This particular hypo would also result in linebreeding to Hail To Reason, Polynesian and Native Dancer but all at 5x5 or 5x6.

Thanks,
Laurie

Inbreeding to Danzig hasn't been particularly successful. G3 winner, Strolling Belle, (2x3 to Danzig) is one of a few.

What about line breeding to ND through Danzig and Dixieland band?

Danzig was bred to 10 Round Table (Prince Rose) sire line mares and produced 7 winners and 5 SW.

If you have a stallion that is line-bred 4X4 or 3X3 to Danzig, find a mare that has mulitple crosses of Round Table or a (Prince Rose) line-bred family and you will breed to a bloodline affinity or superior nick that was produced when these two sires line were mated together.
