The
STORM CAT
line could reinforce Kingston Hill’s juvenile ability. His sire Mastercraftsman has already sired the
dual Gr.1 winner Amazing Maria from a daughter of
TALE OF THE CAT
, plus the Gr.3 winner Craftsman from a
FOREST
WILDCAT
mare. Danehill Dancer sired the high-class Planteur from a
GIANT’S CAUSEWAY
mare.
More
LYPHARD
blood is an option. Danehill Dancer sired the top miler Esoterique from a mare by
DANCING BRAVE
and one of his sons sired another top miler Olympic Glory from an
ALZAO
mare. Danehill Dancer’s smart son Jeremy
had a second dam by
ALZAO
.
LINAMIX
mares have excellent records with Danehill Dancer and his son Choisir.
Kingston Hill’s male line has traditionally enjoyed plenty of success with
SHARPEN UP
. As this top stallion will be back
in the fifth generation of Kingston Hill’s foals, there is plenty of scope for another line, via such as
KRIS
,
DIESIS
,
SELKIRK
,
TREMPOLINO
and
COMMON GROUNDS
.
Kingston Hill’s sire already has a very useful French filly with a dam by
KINGMAMBO
. Three of Mastercraftsman’s
Group winners have dams by grandsons of
MR PROSPECTOR
.
His grandsire Danehill Dancer sired a classic winner from a mare by
INDIAN RIDGE
. Three of Danehill Dancer’s
stallion sons have Group winners from this line, from daughters of
INDIAN RIDGE
,
NAMID
and
COMPTON PLACE
.
Mastercraftsman has a Gr.3 winner out of a
CAERLEON
mare. Danehill Dancer sired two of his classic winners,
Speciosa and Again, from mares by a son and a grandson of
NIJINSKY
. A son of Danehill Dancer sired a
Prix de l’Abbaye winner from a daughter of
CAERLEON
.
Footstepsinthesand, another stallion with a dam by Rainbow Quest, has an eyecatching record with daughters of
DANEHILL
, their five stakes winners equating to 14%.
His sire Mastercraftsman already has a Group-placed performer with a dam by
OASIS DREAM
. Kingston Hill is also
an option for daughters of
INVINCIBLE SPIRIT
and
CAPE CROSS
.
ACCLAMATION
and grandson
DARK ANGEL
should reinforce Kingston Hill’s 2yo ability.
Having bred Kingston Hill we know
how talented and good-looking he is
and it’s great to have a mare like
Inchiri in foal to him.
[Inchiri is a stakes winner and dam
of Hawk’s Eye (Gr.3W) and Inchila
(4th Epsom Oaks-Gr.1)]

He’s a beautiful mover with a great cruising
speed and turn of foot - pretty much everything
you look for in a top-class racehorse.
