G1 Pedigree Watch – Nicks That Click – Bred for G1

Tara Madgwick - Sunday April 21

When Broadsiding galloped to victory in the Group I ATC Champagne Stakes on Saturday he became the third Group I winner this season for a first crop sire joining Hayasugi for Royal Meeting (IRE) and Manaal for Tassort and while the fillies would have been hard to predict, Broadsiding is very much the product of an elite pedigree and a potent nick.

Broadsiding is the first Australian Group I winner for Dubawi’s outstanding son Too Darn Hot (GB), the Champion 2YO Colt of his generation, who trained on to win two more Group I races at three up to 1600m and never missed a place in nine starts.

Too Darn Hot has two full sisters that are both Group winning stayers and his dam Dar Re Mi and grand-dam Darara are Group I winners up to 2400m with the latter a blue hen that left four Group I winners among her five stakes-winners.

Few stallion prospects have ever come to Australia with as much pedigree and performance as Too Darn Hot, so to see him on top of the Australian First Season Sires List seems only fifing, but in a super competitive year there is no guarantee he will stay there!

Broadsiding is his first Group I winner in Australia, but second overall with the filly Fallen Angel achieving the feat in the UK last year.

He is the 26th Group I winner for champion sire Street Cry as a broodmare sire and his daughters have had some very good success when bred to Too Darn Hot’s sire Dubawi.

The Dubawi x Street Cry nick has had 16 winners from 20 starters, so 80% winners to runners with six stakes-winners making for 30% SW to runner and those SW’s are headed by G1 winners Rebel’s Romance and Albahr.

Too Darn Hot has had four runners so far from daughters of Street Cry and is 100% success with all four winning and in addition to Broadsiding the Australian bred Group III placed filly Arabian Summer is also bred this way.

Broadsiding’s second and third dams are by champion sires Redoute’s Choice and Zabeel, so he really does have  a great mix of the bloodlines that have defined our bloodstock industry through the start of this century.

The oldest European progeny of Too Darn Hot have now turned three so all eyes will be watching as their classic year unfolds with four Group winners in the Northern Hemisphere last year and a new Group winner in Japan this year in Etes Vous Prets.
