Style Vendome a classic-winning Danzig grandson

STYLE VENDOME (FR) - 2010 grey horse

This Haras de Bouquetot stallion was a speedy summer juvenile who became a classic-winning miler and the grandson of the great Danzig (by Northern Dancer) represents a family that is associated with speed.

His stakes-winning half-brother Prestige Vendome (by Orpen) was runner-up in the Group 1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains (French 2000 Guineas) and third in the Group 1 Criterium International, his stakes-placed dam, Place Vendome (by Dr Fong) is a half-sister to a dual stakes-placed juvenile, and his grandam, Mediaeval (by Medaaly), is an unraced half-sister to the Group 3 Prix d'Arenberg scorer Dobby Road (by Grape Tree Road).

Domino Queen (by Primo Dominie), the winning third dam of Style Vendome, is out of dual scorer The Queen of Soul (by Chief Singer) and that makes her a half-sister to Ella (by Brief Truce), a listed sprint winner who was placed in the Group 3 Cornwallis Stakes.

These are the highlights of the first four generations of the pedigree, but if you go back another step then you will find that The Queen of Soul was a half-sister to Listed Ayr Gold Cup scorer Primula Boy (by Sallust) and also to Group 3 Cherry Hinton Stakes winner Crime Of Passion (by Dragonara Palace), who was placed in the Group 2 Queen Mary Stakes and Group 1 Prix Robert Papin.

That juvenile star is the grandam of a long list of blacktype horses, most notably Group 1 Dubai Golden Shaheen Stakes winner Muarrab (by Oasis Dream) and his talented half-brother Bungle Inthejungle (by Exceed And Excel). The latter, who stands at Rathasker Stud, won the Group 3 Molecomb Stakes and Group 3 Cornwallis Stakes, he was runner-up in the Group 2 Flying Childers Stakes, and his first foals arrived this year.

Style Vendome looks likely to get sprinters and milers, and being a classic-winning grandson of Danzig there is every reason to hope that some of them will be pattern winners.
