ahonoora ( 1975 – 1989 ) was a british thoroughbred racehorse and sire .

in a career that lasted from 1977 to 1979 he ran twenty times and won seven races .

ahonoora was a sprinter who specialised in races over five and six furlongs , with his most important wins coming in the stewards 's cup at goodwood and the group two william hill sprint championship ( now a group one race ) at york .

he is primarily notable for his achievements at stud , where his progeny , including dr devious , park express and indian ridge , made him one of the most significant modern representatives of the byerley turk sire line .

much like ahonoora and indian ridge , danehill regularly sired horses who stayed far better than he did and sometimes sired runners superior to himself .
) . that , though , did not stop ahonoora becoming a far better sire than lorenzaccio had been . in a tragically short stud career , ahonoora was represented by a host of high - class winners from 1000m to 2400m . these included top two - year - olds such as

bolger can also take much of the credit for the ahonoora success story . back when neither stallion or trainer were that fashionable , he produced park appeal to win the cheveley park and moyglare and gave ahonoora the perfect start . and in a nice tie in with the galileo story , she was sold onto sheikh mohammed just like new approach and teofilo . but of course he didn’t stop there and he trained other quality offspring including park express , noora abu , topanoora ( remember the hardwicke anyone ? ) and project manager . in another twist ahonoora ended up at coolmore but alas died when still only 14 . it was fitting that ahonoora is the broodmare sire of new approach .
although bred in ireland in 1981 , princess tracy ( ahonoora ) has left her biggest mark on the australian breeding industry . tulloch lodge , i believe , has the next . . .

one name which mustn’t be overlooked in cape cross’s pedigree is that of his broodmare sire ahonoora . this handsome horse was the product of two very different performers . his sire lorenzaccio was a middle - distance performer who became the villain of the piece by defeating the great nijinsky on his final appearance in the champion s . ahonoora’s dam helen nichols , on the other hand , had been a very speedy member of a fast female line . speed also proved to be ahonoora’s principal asset but , as sometimes happens with horses of this type of background , his progeny enjoyed success over a wide range of distances .
he is a natural to follow a similar path to his ancestor ahonoora ( broodmare sire of acclamation ) though he is yet to demonstrate he can get top - class horses at a wide range of distances .
ahonoora had won the stewards’ cup at three , sent off at 50 - 1 , and he had got home by only half a length from double form , another three - year - old who was trying to concede him 19lb . at four he registered a more meritorious goodwood victory in the group 3 king george stakes , but his subsequent win in the nunthorpe stakes ( then group 2 ) was a fluke . he was comprehensively beaten by thatching , who was disqualified for having impeded not ahonoora , but third - placed abdu . among the older sprinters of 1979 , ahonoora ranked far behind thatching and some way inferior to double form .
ahonoora even sired the 1992 derby winner dr devious and ahonoora’s high - class daughter park express became the dam of the 2008 derby winner new approach . now , as the broodmare sire of cape cross , he also appears in the pedigrees of sea the stars , australia and golden horn . this remarkable stallion also sired the dams of azeri , leroidesanimaux and the popular irish stallion acclamation , and it was one of his little - known grandsons who gave us the extraordinary cirrus des aigles .

if the full extent of indian ridge ' s success at stud was hard to predict ( which it was ) , then even more unexpected was the extraordinarily successful stud career enjoyed by his sire ahonoora . by the time that ahonoora retired to stud in 1980 after a productive career spent contesting britain ' s top sprints , the future of the byerley turk sire - line in europe appeared to lie in the hands of stallions who were most notable for siring either middle - distance gallopers or stayers . the excellent stallions
no - one who witnessed ahonoora line up at 50 - 1 for the 1978 stewards ' cup at goodwood could have foreseen his influence , in terms of stamina as well as class . ahonoora won that race , improved into a high - class five - furlong specialist , and retired with aspirations to be a commercial sprint sire . what emerged from this unfashionably bred chestnut were horses of the calibre of don ' t forget me ( 2 , 000 guineas ) , dr devious ( derby ) , indian ridge and inchinor .
as a broodmare sire , both ahonoora and indian ridge have respectable numbers . ahonoora’s daughters have produced more than 60 stakes winners , better than half of which are graded . we already mentioned azeri and leroidesanimaux . here are some others . gabr , a son of green desert who won the group 2 sandown mile , malhub , a kingmambo colt who won the g1 golden jubilee stakes at ascot , the tatling by perugino who won the group 1 king’s stand and was stout enough to last 59 starts . then there is hurricane alan , a double group 2 winner by mukaddamah , fallow ( by common grounds ) , a group 3 winner who placed in several group 2 events in england , and shalford by thatching , winner of the diadem ( group 3 ) at ascot . then there is champion the puzzler by sharpo and champion desert lady by danehill . at stud out of ahonoora mares are g2 winner acclamation and the highly successful cape cross ( out of champion park appeal ) , sire of the grand mare ouija board , who got 10 stakes winners in his first crop . then there is epsom derby winner new approach ( ire ) , and diktat , a champion sprinter whose second dam is by ahonoora that got off to a good start and finally shinko forest , by green desert out of ahonoora’s champion park express .
group 1 winner and classic sire cape cross ( ire ) ( green desert–park appeal { gb } , by ahonoora { gb } ) has been euthanized at darley’s kildangan stud at age 23 due to complications from old age . he was pensioned from stud duties last year .

ahonoora and indian ridge were able to dovetail well with the influx of north american bloodstock ; both had pedigrees free of northern dancer and native dancer , which made them natural outcrosses . their ability to get offspring who stayed far better than themselves elevated them into the classic bracket .
ahonoora ( gb ) ch . h , 1975 { 1 - m } dp = 4 - 4 - 2 - 0 - 2 ( 12 ) di = 3 . 00 cd = 0 . 67 - 16 starts , 7 wins , 7 places , 1 shows career earnings : £486 , 589
though statistics can be misleading , they are always worth a look , and ahonoora’s ‘numbers’ and titles are really quite impressive . leading sire in ireland , 1987 among leading sires in ireland , 1992 second leading sire in england , 1986 second leading sire in england , 1992 fifth leading sire in england , 1987
in recent years , two standouts in american racing – 2007 horse of the year azeri and champion turf horse leroidesanimaux , ( sire of champion and kentucky derby winner animal kingdom ) - have been produced from ahonoora’s daughters . ( sadly leroidesanimaux , who had been standing in england since 2014 died in 2016 of a paddock accident , just like ahonoora himself did . ) in the not - too - distant past , ahonoora’s son indian ridge has given us two breeders’ cup winners in ridgewood pearl and domedriver , and his daughter , native roots ( ire ) , produced 2004 breeders ' cup juvenile ( g1 ) winner wilko . yet very few american breeders can tell you much about ahonoora . and it’s no wonder . take a peek at the ‘grey pages’ in an ancient edition of the blood horse stallion register under “herod” and you will find that the sire line pretty well dried up and died when crozier’s best son precisionist turned out to be sterile . in ‘sire of sires’ list in one old blood horse stallion register the thing had indian ridge so confused he was listed twice , once as “indian ridge” and once as “indian ridge ( ire ) ” . ( all the horses listed are by the same horse – indian ridge ( ire ) , by the way . ) looking for a male - line ahonoora stallion ? look in europe . looking for his name in the cross - reference file ? ditto – at least until the 2006 stallion book came out and leroidesanimaux’s lineage appeared , making his early loss all the more tragic .
the first two disappointed at stud , the last two didn ' t . just as importantly , ahonoora has had a major impact on the epsom classics as broodmare sire of new approach ( derby ) and cape cross . the latter has sired two derby winners ( sea the stars , golden horn ) and an oaks winner ( ouija board ) .
anybody might have formed the view that such as fairy king , atan and night shift had no right to become successful sires , but if jim had asked which horse most comprehensively confounded my expectations of him , i would have to name ahonoora . it wasn’t that ahonoora was a poor racehorse ; he became a high - class sprinter as a four - year - old , earning an annual timeform rating of 122 . but to my mind he was a chance - bred individual , by a poor sire and from a family of no great distinction , so i could only see him as a progenitor of cheap speed , a run - of - the - mill stallion whose impact would be brief and insignificant . i could hardly have been more wrong .
jim is currently training quite a few by lil’s boy a danzig horse he used to train . early signs aren’t promising . in the past he also trained a lot by project manager ( a son of ahonoora mentioned earlier ) and erin’s isle a son of busted who he trained before he was sold to america . neither were successful but at least erin’s isle left him affianced the dam of soldier of fortune and heliostatic .
( and in turn several sons of blakeney ) were all stallions who might be looked upon to come up with classic contenders . by contrast , ahonoora , who had won the stewards cup at goodwood as a three - year - old in 1978 and the group two william hill sprint championship ( which is now the group one nunthorpe stakes ) at york at four , was a far less obvious candidate to prolong the line .
lorenzaccio sired very little of note apart from ahonoora , just the italian group 1 winner rolle and the good australian colt brewery boy , but he also sired golden horn’s fourth dam lora . this mare produced on the house , winner of the 1 , 000 guineas and sussex s . for sir philip oppenheimer , father of golden horn’s owner - breeder anthony . in sending fleche d’or to cape cross , anthony oppenheimer created 4×5 to lorenzaccio .
ahonoora’s racing success afforded him a chance at stud . his offspring , while not carrying the cache of the northern dancer line , were tough and good - looking . further , they could run , and the chestnut achieved enough success at stud early to be the most expensive stallion at the irish national stud . likely better off had he been left in ireland , ahonoora fell victim to the usual greed and money won the day . offers from around the globe were tendered to lure him away from his homeland , and he ended up a dual hemisphere sire . whether or not all the shipping about had anything to do with his early demise is debatable , but he broke his near hind leg while at stud in australia and was destroyed . he was only 14 at the time and his place at the head of the herod tribe made his early loss immeasurable by monetary worth alone .
intriguingly , since his sire was a contemporary of nijinsky ii , morris’ book tells us that ahonoora’s chestnut offspring were often rejected as lesser members of his tribe . this was said , too , of the chestnut nijinsky ii get as sires ( though sky classic has put paid to that nonsense to some degree ) . chance took over with ahonoora and the chestnut prejudice , however . his best son , and the one who is carrying on the sire line , indian ridge , is a chestnut . but , as morris pointed out , he could have been no other color with two chestnut parents . nevertheless , it is intriguing that indian ridge’s breeder’s cup mile winner domedriver is a bay , as are champions definite article and namid . his top chestnuts include ridgewood pearl , irish 2000 guineas winner indian haven , and champion sprinter compton place . and of course , his grandchildren azeri and the late leroidesanimaux are / were both chestnuts as well .
it is interesting to consider those stallions that are available to european breeders that are entirely free from the canadian super stud . there is nothing intrinsically superior about these stallions but what is apparent is their scarcity and modest stud fees . the passing of monsun , the retirement of dalakhani and the decline of the ahonoora , forli and sharpen up lines has seen the ending of our best ‘free from nd’ options . the best of the few remaining options are as follows ( in no particular order ) :
it may just be that < some > danzig sons appreciate a return to their sire ' s broodmare sireline , the sireline of
teddy
, in their mares . ahonoora bred daughters / grandaughters bring that through his dam , helen nichols , who traces tail - maile to bull lea - one of teddy ' s great sire sons . danzig ' s dam , the great pas de nom , traces tail - male to teddy via his crafty admiral , to teddy ' s son sir gallahad .
of course i would still have been reluctant to believe that he could get a derby winner , which meant that dr devious’s triumph in 1992 underlined just how much i had misjudged his sire . ahonoora did a wonderful job , providing that ‘something different’ at a time when northern dancer was beginning to become all - pervasive in pedigrees . he was a tremendous loss to european breeding when he died at the age of 14 , finally properly appreciated and able to command a fee of ir40 , 000gns at coolmore .
throughout es que love ' s career he showed the soundness of wind and limb that we all wish to see in our racehorses . es que love was a high class sprinter / miler as shown with his win in this year’s group 2 lennox stakes beating group 1 winners garswood and toormore . his northern dancer / ahonoora cross is a proven stallion producing nick with the likes of new approach and acclamation excelling . he is full of quality with an elegance of movement that he should pass on to his progeny . first foals 2016 .
ahonoora at least found a good home for his start as a stallion , but i couldn’t see that the irish national stud would attract sufficient decent mares to him at a fee of ir£2 , 250 for him to succeed . i still wasn’t convinced when i noticed that there were a number of really athletic individuals among his first yearlings at the sales . he had to have runners before i changed my mind about him , and that i had to do after park appeal was followed by park express , don’t forget me and indian ridge .
having been bought as a yearling in 1986 for 22 , 000 irish guineas , indian ridge was put into training by his owners sean and anne coughlan with david elsworth in south west england . elsworth was a perfect man to take charge of an ahonoora yearling , being a most versatile trainer who would get the best out of any horse , irrespective of his or her distance requirements . thus it came to pass that elsworth helped indian ridge to develop into a top - class sprinter at a time when the stable star was the champion steeplechaser
of the
founding three
thoroughbred patriarchs that remain in tail - male descent , it appears the byerly / herod line is in trouble internationally , and is effectively dead in the u . s . . while europe and australia both have viable branches of the line , no break - out stallion has emerged in recent years to guarantee future propagation . shy of a standout son or grandson of indian ridge ( ire ) ( pedigree ) developing in the next few years , the line of ahonoora and djebel and tourbillon and my babu might have permanently waned .
many breeders , owners , trainers and jockeys around europe have reason to remember indian ridge with fondness - just as so many had previously benefitted from the influence of his sire ahonoora . none probably , though , will remember him with quite as much affection as sean and anne coughlan , who not only raced him , but also bred and raced his best daughter ridgewood pearl . the great jockey johnny murtagh will also presumably have a particularly soft spot for him : initially ridgewood pearl proved instrumental in propelling his career to the top level , and now indian ridge ' s grand - daughter dancing rain has provided him with his first oaks victory .
first off , and especially for racing in europe i ' d take a look at green forest or another good son of danzig standing there in the hopes of getting one a la shinko forest , others of this cross that have gone on to gsw . i can honestly say i don ' t know
why
this danzig on top ahonoora daughters seems to work but it does account for more than one mgsw horse , worldwide . may or may not do as well with the dr . devious daughters but they are so recently gone on to breed it ' s hard to say if that ' s evidence of an absense or absense of any evidence .
compton place is after a fantastic few weeks . on the 19th july the six year old intrepid jack won the group 3 hackwood stakes over 6 furlongs . on the 1st august the two year old prolific won the group 2 richmond stakes and then to cap it all on the 22nd august another 6 year old borderlescott won the group 1 nunthorpe stakes ( following in the footsteps of his grandsire ahonoora ) when the race was run at newmarket after york was cancelled . borderlescotts victory was his first ever group win and was compton place’s first ever group one victory . compton place has earned a reputation as a good sire of tough speedy horses and is good value at his current fee of £7500 .
tahrir is closely related to last tycoon ' s leading miler marju , while miss sacha combines the irish derby victor sayajirao with his three parts - sisters rosy myth and double rose . sayajirao is a full - brother to the champion juvenile dante , whose grandson derring - do sired high top and is prominent in efisio , green desert ' s son desert style , sadler ' s wells ' son montjeu and primo dominie . dante ' s grandson tudor melody is closely related to the middle park stakes winner track spare , sire of muhaarar ' s fourth dam , and is prominent in doyoun , grand lodge , petong and , via his son welsh pageant , marju , ahonoora ' s son inchinor and celtic swing . alastair nicolson
oasis dream has sired the gr . 1 middle park stakes hero charming thought and gr . 1 nunthorpe stakes heroine jwala from twenty - four foals out of mares by indian ridge , whose sire ahonoora begot miss sacha ' s listed - winning half - sister pinta , and two group winners from just nine foals from mares by efisio . the latter ' s short - lived gr . 1 phoenix stakes victor pips pride is out of a daughter of relkino and sired a stakes winner from a half - sister to muhaarar ' s third dam . relko ' s three parts - brother reliance is the damsire of diesis and kris , kris ' classic - winning daughter rafha being the dam of green desert ' s gr . 1 haydock park sprint cup king invincible spirit and danehill ' s son kodiac .
iffraaj’s dam , pastorale , by nureyev , won her first two starts before breaking down in the irish 1000 guineas , and the immediate success at stud of her group 1 - winning half - brother cape cross , by green desert , no doubt had a great deal to do with iffraaj getting a decent chance at stud . pastorale’s half - sister arvola , by sadler’s wells , is the dam of a reasonably good sire in english and french highweight diktat , by warning . pastorale’s dam , park appeal , by ahonoora , was champion 2 - year - old filly in england and ireland , and a half - sister to irish oaks winner alydaress , by alydar , and to group 1 cheveley park stakes winner desirable , by lord gayle . desirable is the dam of english champion and classic winner shadayid , by shadeed .
we occasionally discuss
rare
sire lines in this space , and later this week we ' re going to take a look at the remaining teddy line . while i ' m more of a
female family
advocate in most breeding considerations , i also appreciate the y - chromosome diversity that still exists within the thoroughbred breed . by request , here ' s a brief overview of what ' s out there .
the godolphin line through matchem is plodding onward , but seems to survive each generation with only one new branch - maker . a while back we had branches of the 1850 stud west australian that gave us sassafras ( pedigree ) and hastings ( pedigree ) . then we were down to fair play ' s offspring , including a line through the bunty lawless stud windfields ( pedigree ) , where only a couple of decades ago it was possible to find old stalwart man o ' war through a couple of different sons and grandsons , we now look to his great - great - grandson in reality as the new patriarch of the godolphin line . this bloodline has some current standouts and looks healthy for at least another couple of generations .
the darley line through eclipse is clearly dominant . i ' ve indented the following to help depict the tail - male lineage and its several branches :
a . two lines of the 1775 eclipse son king fergus live on through his sixth - great - grandson st . simon , who was born in 1881 . the modern st . simon lines exist through ribot sons his majesty ( pedigree ) and tom rolfe ( pedigree ) , and through prince rose sons prince bio ( pedigree ) and princequillo ( pedigree ) . ( watch for future posts on these lines . . . . )
b . the bulk of modern - day sire lines descend from another eclipse son : the oddly - named pot - 8 - o ' s .
1 . in 1822 , camel ( a great - grandson of pot - 8 - o ' s ) branched off . we ' ve previously discussed the continuation of this line through himyar sons domino and plaudit .
2 . the pot - 8 - o ' s line continued mainly through his great - great - grandson irish birdcatcher .
a . it branched off again with the 1857 stallion oxford , whose fourth - great - grandson blandford has a living line through monsun in germany , and another through cipayo in south america . that cipayo branch has a chute in the u . s . with seattle fitz ( arg ) ( sro ) , who we ' ve discussed on several occasions .
b . pot - 8 - o ' s irish birdcatcher line of eclipse branched off again when his 1877 great - great - grandson bend or sired patriarchs bona vista ( whose line is represented through nasrullah and northern dancer and raise a native and turn - to and buckpasser ) and ormonde .
i . ormonde blood survives today primarily through his own great - great - grandson teddy ( 1913 ) , the third - great - grandsire of damascus ( pedigree ) .
ii . somewhere around 90 % of north american thoroughbreds trace through bona vista , most of them through the 1913 stallion phalaris ( pedigree ) .
like i promised , just a quick look at the sire lines that ' ve made it to modern - day thoroughbred breeding . we ' ll look more in - depth at teddy in the next couple of days .
in the meantime . . . do you have a favorite founding sire or a later branch ? i ' ve talked about himyar as my favorite line of eclipse , and i ' m a big fan of matchem bloodlines . what are your preferences ?

brian ellison’s charge was the 7 - 4 favourite to repeat his ballybrit triumph of 12 months ago , having been placed in the topaz mile , also for the second time , on tuesday .
with donnacha o’brien keeping the ride , baraweez was settled against the rail , before switching wide to mount his challenge rounding the home turn .
the alistair whillans - trained scottish challenger pintura , another horse with previous form at the track when previously with kevin ryan , set sail for home in the straight , but baraweez reeled him in and got up by a neck .
ellison said : “it’s horses for courses . we’ve had a hard week with him . he’d a bruised foot and was lame all week but my staff have done a great job and the vet here was also a great help .
“he only came sound this morning and if the race was yesterday he wouldn’t have run . the lad cantered him two furlongs this morning and he was fine afterwards .
“this course probably suits him because he travels well , although the ground was a bit soft for him today . he was very game , and the kid ( donnacha o’brien ) gave him a great ride .
“he’ll come back for the race he won at leopardstown in september , and back here again next year hopefully .
“we love coming here as they do a great job and everyone is so friendly . ”
dollar and dream provided tony martin with another galway winner in the martinstown opportunity handicap hurdle .
having finished third in similar events at tipperary and limerick in the spring , the six - year - old was the 7 - 2 favourite for the opening contest .
leading conditional shane shortall was happy to play the waiting game and dollar and dream remained nearer last than first jumping the second flight from the finish .
however , he began to motor before the home bend to move into contention and knuckled down well from the last to get up and beat afatcat by three and a half lengths .
martin said : “he needs to be ridden with confidence . shane was very good on him – that was a ruby walsh or paul carberry job .
“that’s the track for him , going up the hill and they are coming back to him . on quicker ground they don’t come back to you . he’s a chaser in the making . ”
slygufftou finished powerfully to land the galway shopping centre handicap hurdle in the hands of luke dempsey .
michael mccullagh’s charge was turning out just nine days after opening his account under rules at the 11th attempt at wexford and was a 16 - 1 shot for this more competitive heat .
the grey was never too far off the speed , but looked booked for minor honours as harangue and medinah gold began to draw clear from the second last .
however , medinah gold was slow at the final obstacle and with harangue beginning to tie up , slygufftou stuck on admirably to come through and win by a length and three - quarters .
mccullagh said : “this horse has given me a hard time at home but i forgive him all now . i was saying beforehand that i should have waited for roscommon ( on tuesday ) .
“i told young dempsey to wait and wait and he did exactly as he was told . ”
rebel fitz had to make do with the runner - up spot on his return to action as cailin annamh took gold in the at the races chase .
despite having been off the track since last october , the mick winters - trained rebel fitz was unsurprisingly all the rage to make a successful comeback as the 9 - 10 favourite .
for much of the two - and - three - quarter - mile journey everything appeared to be going to plan , with the 18 - times winner showing all of his old exuberance and it looked a case of how far he would win by when he began to stretch clear from the second last .
however , the lack of a recent run began to tell up the punishing hill and cailin annamh , who had earlier made the running , came back at the market leader and got up by two and three - quarter lengths . colour squadron was back in third .
winning trainer jessica harrington said : “she had a wind operation and that’s why she was so long coming back . i put the tongue - tie back on today and a pair of blinkers as she was not doing a thing in killarney .
“she made just one mistake at the open ditch and it was a mistake . it was a brilliant ride by robbie ( power ) and i knew she would stay going on the run - in .
he said : “it was a super run and he jumped like a buck . it’s a long run up the hill and the lack of a run just told on him .
“the plan is the slan abhaile ( at listowel ) , and he may go for the cesarewitch after that . ”
henry de bromhead’s excellent week continued as bally longford edged ahead in a thrilling lord hemphill memorial handicap chase .
the 8 - 1 shot looked set to win decisively when hitting the front under barry geraghty , but un beau roman came back tenaciously .
in the end , though , bally longford won the argument by a length .
miracle jockey brian toomey had his first ride over fences since his much publicised fall at perth two years ago , but pulled up phil kirby’s british challenger kings grey .
geraghty said : “the ground wasn’t that bad i’d say . he jumped well and battled well . i thought when i went past ruby that’s the last i’ll see of you , but he stayed at it well and i thought i was in trouble . my lad just kept finding a little bit more . ”

tour de france : team sky finish second in 35 . 5km team time trial 19 : 07
compton place’s racecourse career is really all about one race the 1997 july cup . he triumphed at 50 - 1 defeating royal applause . as his price suggests this was a massive improvement on his previous form although at 2 he did finish runner up in the gimcrack and the flying childers . in his previous run he had been well beaten in the king’s stand and he must be one of the few group one winners about which the trainer had to explain the improvement in form ! the rest of his career was a big disappointment , his final run at three was in the nunthorpe but he missed the kick and only beat one horse home . kept in training at four he ran three times but finished close to last on all his runs including when bidding for a repeat in the july cup .
jim bolger is an opinionated man , often described as straight talking or as “not afraid of controversy” . as a trainer he has never found favour with coolmore inc , which is surprising as they owe him a great deal . bolger deserves all the credit for moulding their greatest human asset in aidan o’ brien and their greatest current commercial asset in galileo .
galileo’s fee is listed as private . without the bolger influence i think it would be around the same level as peintre celebre at 25k . that’s a difference of around 150k per mare which should entitle him to a few horses that apob can’t accommodate . then again i suppose magnier has enough on his plate trying to keep wachman’s yard full…
bolger’s success with galileo is remarkable . he is trainer and sometimes owner or breeder of new approach , teofilo , lush lashes , galatee , heliostatic , prima luce and cuis gaire . he is the breeder of soldier of fortune . that is 8 of galileo’s 20 group winners . if you take out the bolger contingent you lose all his good two year olds and his 2 best middle distance colts making galileo’s record look like that of a sire of stayers ( first 3 in a st leger , allegretto , mahler , purple moon ) . it was teofilo and new approach that pushed his fee to private , 2 year olds are what makes him so much more commercial . its also easy to knock his other group 1 winners , as nightime won an irish guineas in bottomless ground , cima de triomphe’s win in the italian derby barely registered with anyone and red rocks win in the breeders cup was a once off . bolger saw galileo as a star ( geddit ) and backed his judgement accordingly . why he is so much more successful than any other breeder or trainer of galileo’s is something that i can’t explain .
alas when people of conviction get it wrong , they often find it hard to admit they were wrong . i think this happened to jim bolger with nordico . nordico was a son of northern dancer from the family of stephan’s odyssey . jim’s yard was full of them for about 4 years . he managed to win races with many of them but none of them were top class . nordico ended up in cyprus which seems about right .
2 fillies saoirse abu and finsceal beo , 5 group ones between them and counting . no wonder jim is keen on them at the sales

saturday’s racing surely came extremely close to perfection for any lover of the thoroughbred . the highlight , inevitably , had to be american pharoah’s majestic display at belmont , which finally quenched america’s thirst for a triple crown winner . however , there were no grounds for complaint earlier in the day at epsom , when the exciting golden horn maintained his unbeaten record in excellent style in the derby .
appropriately , each of the colts is a representative of the male line which has made the greatest impact on his respective country’s triple crown events in recent decades . in winning the belmont , american pharoah supplied the fappiano branch of the mr . prospector line with its 13th win in a triple crown event , the sequence starting with unbridled in the kentucky derby of 1990 . i haven’t seen american pharoah in the flesh , but he appears to possess the size and power that has made this branch so effective on america’s dirt tracks .
golden horn , a graduate of hascombe and valiant studs , has been described by his owner - breeder anthony oppenheimer as “the right height , right length , right type” for the derby . it turns out that the colt has the perfect unflappable temperament , too .
that he is the right physical type may be a reflection of his bloodlines , as he has four lines to northern dancer , the stallion who has made by far the greatest impact on the epsom classic since nijinsky became the first of his three derby winners in 1970 .
during those 46 years we have seen six winners sired by northern dancer’s sons–three by nijinsky , two by sadler’s wells and one by sadler’s wells’s brother fairy king–and another 12 by his grandsons , comprising four by montjeu , three by galileo and one each by caerleon , chief’s crown , dancing brave , danehill and ile de bourbon . we have also seen two great - grandsons get into the act , with grand lodge and cape cross both being grandsons of danzig . the northern dancer clan’s contribution adds up to 24 winners–and that’s just the male line .
golden horn is inbred 4×4 to northern dancer , via his 15 . 3 - hands sons danzig and nureyev , and his dam , the unraced fleche d’or , is inbred 4×2 to nureyev . there is a further , more remote line , via lyphard’s daughter phydilla . you may have noticed that danzig and nureyev aren’t among the sons of northern dancer which sired a derby winner , but nureyev was a three - parts - brother to sadler’s wells and fairy king , and danzig’s name appears somewhere in the pedigrees of four of the last seven winners .
i need at this point to make it clear that i am an admirer of golden horn’s sire cape cross . in my work for juddmonte we have used him only sparingly but have been rewarded with the group winners treat gently and jet away .
that said , cape cross has never quite made it into the highest echelons , with his fee never rising higher than €50 , 000 after he started out at only ir£8 , 000 . this year breeders could use the 21 - year - old for no more than €20 , 000 . part of the explanation is that his tally of group 1 winners in the northern hemisphere stands at just five from a total of over 1 , 400 northern hemisphere foals aged three or over .
needless to say , this falls well short of the figures achieved by stallions which , at one time or another , have ranked among the highest - priced in britain or ireland , such as galileo , dubawi , dansili , pivotal , oasis dream and shamardal . it has been a different story at group 2 level , with no fewer than 16 of cape cross’s progeny achieving that status . perhaps one of those group 2 winners , the german 3 - year - old karpino , will become group 1 winner number six , as he has been a comfortable winner of each of his three races , including germany’s equivalent of the 2 , 000 guineas .
if cape cross can’t boast about the quantity of his northern hemisphere group 1 winners , he has certainly earned bragging rights when it comes to their quality . his five group 1 winners feature three outstanding classic winners . his first - crop daughter ouija board triumphed in the 2004 oaks and irish oaks before developing into an international star . next came the magnificent sea the stars , who dominated the 2009 season from the moment he added the derby to his 2 , 000 guineas victory . and now golden horn has become his sire’s second impressive winner of the derby , his success coming just 12 months after ouija board’s son australia had won the derby and irish derby .


the chaco tree frog ( hypsiboas raniceps ) is a frog species in the family hylidae found in argentina , bolivia , brazil , colombia , french guiana , paraguay , and venezuela .

in spanish , it is known as rana arborea meridional ( " southern tree frog " ) .

its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests , subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests , subtropical or tropical dry lowland grassland , rivers , swamps , freshwater lakes , intermittent freshwater lakes , freshwater marshes , intermittent freshwater marshes , urban areas , and heavily degraded former forests .

chaco tree frog

the south american polka dot tree frog gives off an
intense greenish - blue glow
under uv light , scientists say .
study co - author julián faivovich , a herpetologist at the university of buenos aires , told nature he’s eager to start looking for fluorescence in other amphibians . possible candidates include 250 other tree frog species that , like the polka dot tree frog , have translucent skin .
the polka dot tree frog inhabits the forest of the amazon basin of ecuador , peru , bolivia and brazil , the orinoco basin and chaco of paraguay , and argentina . it may be also found in colombia and venezuela , lopes says .
researchers said it remains unclear why the polka dot tree frog has this fluorescent ability , though communication , specifically for mating purposes , is one possibility .
in the case of the fluorescent frog , a unique group of three molecules ― hyloin - l1 , hyloin - l2 and hyloin - g1― appear to be responsible for the amphibian’s glow , researchers said .

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
this species was previously within the genus hyla but has recently been moved to the resurrected genus hypsiboas ( faivovich , et al . , 2005 ) .
justification : listed as least concern in view of its wide distribution , tolerance of a broad range of habitats , presumed large population , and because it is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a more threatened category .
this species is widespread in amazonian brazil , is present in southern colombia and northern french guiana , and occurs in amazonian bolivia , paraguay , and northeastern argentina . its altitudinal range is from up to 400m asl . records from venezuela , documented from amazonas state ( a museum record from bolívar state needs documentation for a precise locality ) are misidentifications .
it is found in many habitat types . within tropical forest is can be found on leaves and branches ; in water or vegetation growing around ponds and lagoons ; on the banks of large rivers ; and can also be found in amazonian savannah . reproduction can occur in temporary waterbodies . it can also occur in degraded habitats and urban areas .
there are no major threats ; it is a widespread species with large areas of suitable habitat remaining . there is some localized habitat loss due to general human activities such as agriculture ( crops , livestock etc . ) , fire , and infrastructure development . it is sometimes found in the international pet trade but at levels that do not currently constitute a major threat .

a new light has been cast on the world of frogs following a dazzling discovery in south america .
scientists announced last week that they’d discovered the world’s first known naturally fluorescent amphibian . in a march 13
hypsiboas punctatus ) transforms from a dull chartreuse shade with reddish spots to a striking neon hue when ultraviolet light is shone upon it .
tudy co - author norberto peporine lopes , a chemist at the university of são paulo in brazil , told the huffington post in an email this week .
when we trained a uva flashlight , or black light , on specimens of h . punctatus , the entire animal gave off an intense greenish - blue glow . ”
and a species of sea turtle ; but the phenomenon is much more unusual among terrestrial animals .
previously , only parrots , certain butterflies , and some arthropods , including scorpions and spiders , were known to have fluorescent qualities .
short - wavelength electromagnetic radiation and re - emit it as longer wavelength light .
contain a ring structure and a chain of hydrocarbons ― an “amazing” arrangement unlike other known molecules that cause fluorescence in animals , lopes told npr .
the three molecules were also discovered to have the ability to emit an impressive amount of light , said the scientists ― giving off approximately 18 percent as much visible light as a full moon .
lopes said the next step is to study the visual perception of the species to discover if they can see their own fluorescence . researchers are also trying to find out whether there are other amphibians with similar glow - in - the - dark capabilities in existence .
“i’m really hoping that other colleagues will be very interested in this phenomenon , and they will start carrying a uv flashlight to the field , ” he said .
first - person essays , features , interviews and q & as ; about life today .
during the day it’s much harder to find the frogs as you don’t have their sounds to hone in on , nor are they sitting out in the sun .
in one of the many ponds emerging around the lodge i found these two individuals – both clinging onto water hyacinth leaves . both with relatively minimal shade , but excellent for me , though .
as the sun approached the highest point i suppose they both would want to take a dive and stay there till evening .
the skin and color is matte in the heat of the day , so the yellow is more faded , but the dark patterns remain .
it’s incredible how the surface of their feet stick to the leaves in such a way that it can simply sit here and sleep without any worries about falling into the water .


the wingspan is 14 – 17 mm .

the larvae feed on picea abies .

it overwinters as a pupa .

eupithecia conterminata

eupithecia conterminata is a moth of the geometridae family . the species can be found from fennoscandia and the mountains of central europe , through the caucasus to southern siberia .
a taxon identifier is composed of name , author , year and attribute , all separated by a blank . these are all extracted from the original publication .
the name is reproduced exactly as proposed in the original publication . the name of a genus is made up of one word and species made up of two words ( genus and species ) separated by a blank .
the author ' s name is made up of a string of letters , with no blanks , and multiple authors ' names are separated by a comma . spelling of author ' s name is based on the original publication . if there are more than three authors , only the names of the first two authors are shown , followed by
, +
and the number of omitted authors .
attribute is enclosed in square brackets . this is rarely needed , but to differentiate homo - identifiers , this will contain the page , line or plate number of original publication .
all diacritic marks , hyphens , and apostrophes are eliminated , thus only the following characters are used : a to z , a to z , 0 to 9 , blank , comma , and opening and closing square brackets . although upper and lower cases are used for the convenience of human recognition , it is not case sensitive .

blå punkter visar fynd registrerade i artportalen och övriga databaser anslutna till lifewatch . kan innehålla observationer som inte är validerade . kartan uppdateras var fjärde vecka .
i det avancerade verktyget kan man söka ut och få fram artlistor , t ex arter i ett visst län , i en viss biotop , substrat , som påverkas av en hotfaktor , eller som är knutna till en sk värdart , t ex trädet alm . dessa kan även kombineras .
söka fram arter som är rödlistade , knutna till alm , är beroende av död ved och som finns i kronobergs län .
söka fram arter som är rödlistade , lever i småvatten och som påverkas negativt av igenväxning .
defaultläget i verktyget är arter som är rödlistade 2015 och dessa är klassade på samtliga sökfaktorer . under fliken rödlistekategori kan man dock välja att även inkludera arter som inte är rödlistade . om man väljer att inkludera icke rödlistade arter behöver man vara medveten om att samtliga arter inte är klassade på samtliga faktorer . nedan en sammanställning av vad som är komplett .
denna funktion används när du vill skapa din egen lista av arter att hantera . du kan t . ex . navigera mellan arterna i listan genom att klicka på deras namn . du kan också välja att använda knappen ”jämför arter” för att se bilder , kartor och kännetecken i en jämförelsevy .
du kan komponera ditt eget urval av arter genom att klicka dig fram via släktträdet och där välja arter eller artgrupper till din lista . ett annat sätt att göra ditt urval är att använda fliken ”filtrera” , där du kan söka på olika egenskaper . ovanför listan med sökresultatet finns en knapp ”lägg i mitt urval” .
