MATING SUGGESTIONS:
Starspangledbanner showed great versatility, establishing himself as a top-class performer in two continents, while
winning Gr.1 races over 5.5, 6 and 8 furlongs. Now he has shown huge potential with his Irish progeny. From only
33 foals in his first crop, he has sired six stakes winners, headed by four Group winners.
Starspangledbanner owes much of his success to sons and grandsons of
NORTHERN DANCER
. Significantly, two of his
fast Group winners are out of mares by middle-distance Gr.1 winners by
SADLER’S WELLS
, namely
HIGH CHAPARRAL
and
BEAT HOLLOW
. His other Group winner, Anthem Alexander, is out of a fast daughter of
NIGHT SHIFT
. Choisir
sired the American Gr.1 winner Obviously from a
MONTJEU
mare; the top-class Olympic Glory from a daughter of
ALZAO
(by
LYPHARD
); the 2,000 Guineas runner-up Glory Awaits from a grand-daughter of
DANZIG
; and the Gr.2
winner Chandlery from a daughter of
MUJADIL
(by
STORM BIRD
).
This suggests that Starspangledbanner could be an ideal medium for injecting speed into daughters of not only
HIGH CHAPARRAL
but also
MONTJEU
,
GALILEO
and
IN THE WINGS
, and his family produced an Australian Gr.2
winner to
BARATHEA
.
