Previously shuttled to Australia...King Cugat’s stallion pedigree is obvious, however when mating to him the
options are endless. King Cugat is a son of one sensational sire out of a half sister to another, what’s more
his grand dam is a half sister to Champion Queen Of The Stage and Reviewer, the sire of Ruffian, one of
the greatest mares to ever run in North America.
King Cugat is inbred to Raise A Native, making him a perfect cross for the Northern Dancer line. With a
plethora of Northern Dancer line stallions in Australia, there are a few which stand out for King Cugat.
SADLER’S WELLS and FAIRY KING are three quarter brothers to Kingmambo’s damsire Nureyev.
Kingmambo has an overwhelming amount of success when mated to daughters of Sadler’s Wells with the
likes of Champions Divine Proportions and El Condor Pasa as well as 1000 Guineas winner Virgina Waters.
Mares by SCENIC, BARATHEA,CARNEGIE and GALILEO would be well worth utilizing the success of the
cross.
DANEHILL mares also look outstanding prospects. Both King Cugat’s dam and Danehill’s dam are bred on a
combination of Ribot, Buckpasser and Native Dancer. As Buckpasser is a LA TROIENNE family member,
introduction of other family members DON’T SAY HALO,WOODMAN, NOBLE BIJOU, FOREST GLOW are all
desirable as are mares from the Seattle Slew line as Kingmambo has great success with them. As King
Cugat traces back to Seclusion, mares by CROWN JESTER and son RORY’S JESTER would have appeal.
