FIRST YEARLINGS

Cable Bay is related to a multiple champion sire

CABLE BAY (IRE) - 2011 bay horse
Two of the factors that we consider when examining the future potential of any stallion are his sire line and the presence or absence of successful stallions within the distaff side of his family. In the case of Highclere Stud’s talented six-to-eight-furlong performer Cable Bay, we have a horse who passes both of those tests with flying colours.

He is a son of Group 1 winning sprinter and leading international sire Invincible Spirit (by Green Desert), and so is by the horse who gave us Group 1 sires Lawman and I Am Invincible, among others who have come up with stakes and pattern winners.

His dam, Rose de France (by Diktat), is a half-sister to notable broodmare Moyesii (by Diesis) – the dam of Group 1 scorers Kirklees (by Jade Robbery) and Mastery (by Sulamani) – and although it remains to be seen how that mare’s Group 1-winning grandson Mukhadram (by Shamardal) will be viewed in the coming years, the first juveniles by that young Nunnery Stud stallion are off the mark this year.

What stands out, however, with regard to the stallion potential of both that horse and Cable Bay is that Rose de France and Moyesii are daughters of star sprinter Cherokee Rose (by Dancing Brave). The fastest representative of her Timeform 140-rated sire, she won the Group 1 Sprint Cup and Group 1 Prix Maurice de Gheest, she was runner-up in the Group 1 Prix de l’Abbaye de Longchamp, and she is a half-sister to Volksraad (by Green Desert).

He was lightly raced and earned his blacktype when third in the Group 2 Challenge Stakes over seven furlongs, but he went on to become a prolific champion sire in New Zealand. He and Cable Bay are somewhat closely related.

There are plenty of other talented horses under the various branches of just these first three generations of the pedigree, but they do not tell us anything more about this young stallion’s potential.

Cable Bay got 109 foals in his first crop, so he won’t be short of representation, and it seems likely that some of his offspring could do well as juveniles, mostly in the second half of the season. He was runner-up in each of the Group 1 Dewhurst Stakes, Group 2 Richmond Stakes and Group 3 Somerville Tattersall Stakes at that age.

His top wins came in the Group 2 Challenge Stakes and Group 3 John of Gaunt Stakes – over seven furlongs – as a four-year-old, and so his best results are likely to come with his three-year-olds and older horses, in the six to 10-furlong range. There is every reason to hope that his top offspring will surpass his 119 Timeform rating.

CABLE BAY (IRE) - b.2011 - Invincible Spirit - Rose De France, 3 wins inc Challenge Stakes (Gr2), John of Gaunt Stakes (Gr3), 2nd Dewhurst Stakes (Gr1), Challenge Stakes (Gr2), Richmond Stakes (Gr2), Somerville Tattersall Stakes (Gr3), 3rd Summer Mile Stakes (Gr2), Champagne Stakes (Gr2), Gladness Stakes (Gr3). Sire in England. First foals in 2017.
