Are You Making Use of Family Search?

Tara Madgwick - Monday December 11

If you’re somebody like me that spends their life looking at pedigrees in the context of racing, you’ll be enjoying Breednet’s new family search of upcoming sales yearlings which makes it so much easier to find horses from families that are on the move and we’ve found a good one over the weekend featuring three fillies all on the up.

Glamour Tycoon is a new stakes-winner i the Miss Helga family.

When progressive Written Tycoon filly Glamour Tycoon won the Listed O’Leary’s Fillies Stakes (1340m) at Wanganui at the start of the month she was the first of three fillies to add interest to a family that stems from imported Irish stakes-winner Miss Helga (IRE, who came to Australia for Coolmore back in 2004. She was married to Encosta de Lago in the early years of her stud career and produced Champion HK Stayer Liberator and stakes-placed Pink Siris among her five winners.

Pink Siris is the grand-dam of Glamour Tycoon and two of her other daughters, Miss Hufflepuff and Senta Helga are the dams of Nymphadora (2f Yes Yes Yes), who was a fast finishing third in the Inglis Nursery and Concello (3f Trapeze Artist), the Breednet One to Watch on Sunday, read about her here.

A look at the Breednet family search shows three from the family as follows:
