Hussonet
A North American bred son of Mr Prospector, Hussonet enjoyed spectacular success in his early years at stud in South America and while he was not quite able to replicate that degree of success in Australia, he has more than made his mark.
Targeted for Australia as a perfect foil for the myriad of Danehill line mares at Arrowfield Stud, Hussonet proved successful in that regard siring Group I winners Eagle Falls, Reaan, Gold Trail and Contentment from Danehill line mares.
That ability to nick with Danehill blood is now proving very influential through his daughters at stud.
Hussonet is the sire of the dam of four Australian bred Group I winners – Extreme Choice (by Not a Single Doubt), Majmu (by Redoute's Choice), Lucky Bubbles (by Sebring) and Shoals (by Fastnet Rock).

This season's G1 winner Shoals is from a daughter of Hussonet
When we get a bit more specific and look at Hussonet nicking with Redoute's Choice, the figures are even more impressive – 69.2% winners to runners and 15.3% stakes-winners to runners.
John Messara certainly picked wisely in Hussonet, when it came to bringing in a new bloodline to suit his stallions going forward!
