  • Stakes Winning Son of Super Sire Danehill
  • ¾ Brother to Commands & Danewin
  • From the Elite Eight Carat Family
Studmaster's Comments
Stakes winning son of champion sire Danehill (USA) from a sister to Kaapstad (NZ), a daughter of the exceptional matriarch Eight Carat (GB), whose family is arguably the most successful family in Australasia today.

 

Court of Jewels is a three-quarter brother-in-blood to hot young sire Commands whose progeny have sold up a storm at yearling sales this year, and to highly successful sire Danewin, whose progeny statistics rate some of the best on Australian racetracks.

 

Star Kingdom (IRE) line mares should be chasing the services of this fellow, particularly those by Marscay, whose progeny have shown a great affinity with both Danehill (USA) and Sir Tristram (IRE), the sire of the dam of Court of Jewels (NZ).

 

Mares from the Mr Prospector line are also a good bet, tapping into the obvious cross with the Northern Dancer blood of Danehill (USA), but also blending with the genes of Sir Tristram (IRE) in a mix that has produced champions such as Lonhro and Ethereal.

Proven Bloodline
Court Of Jewels dam Nine Carat is a sister to sire Kaapstad and 3/4 sister to Octagonal, Tristalove, Antwerp and Mouawad. Nine Carat is a daughter of Eight Carat whose descendants include sires Commands, Danewin, Viscount, Viking Ruler, Don Eduardo and Dangerous.

 

Court Of Jewels is a 3/4 brother to boom sires Danewin and Commands. Commands, a leading Australian First Season Sire, has attracted attention with his progeny in the ring and on the track.

 

Court Of Jewels offers an outstanding opportunity to access a son of Danehill with the finest family in the NZ/Australian Stud Book at a value for money fee.
