SIRE:
DANEHILL, A grandson of the
greatest sire and sires of sires of the 20th
century NORTHERN DANCER, and son of
world-renowned sire and sires of sires
DANZIG - DANEHILL was an immediate
sensation at stud in Australia. His success
in Europe was just as spectacular,
exemplified by sons such as Horse of the
Year ROCK OF GIBRALTAR,
superstar son DYLAN THOMAS, CACIQUE, FAIRY
KING PRAWN, DANEHILL DANCER, ELVSTROEM,
EXCEED & EXCEL, GEORGE WASHINGTON, HOLY
ROMAN EMPEROR, DESERT KING, REDOUTE'S
CHOICE, DANSILI and many more.
His offspring, with their trademark
strapping good looks, are often extremely
tough. Many of his sons are now emerging as
top stallions. In fact, his son, the
Australian stallion superstar REDOUTE'S
CHOICE (Champion Sire in Australia
and sire of champions MISS FINLAND,
FASHIONS AFIELD, LOTTERIA, etc.), is now
the costliest stallion in Australian
bloodstock history and stands at a covering
fee even higher than that at which
DANEHILL himself stood during his final
covering season in Australia.
Stallion sons in Europe such as DANEHILL
DANCER (sire of Top class Group 1 horses
CHOISIR, WHERE OR WHEN, ALEXANDER TANGO,
PRIVATE STEER, SPECIOSA, etc.); DESERT
KING (sire of triple time Melbourne
Cup winner MAKYBE DIVA, champions DESERT
WAR, MR. DINOS, DARASALAM); DANSILI
(sire of Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner
RAIL LINK, Group 1 winners PRICE TAG,
PASSAGE TIME, etc.) are now established
among the elite.
