SALON
Even though Testa Rossa is a Danzig line stallion he gets positive results
from mares from the same sire line and doubling up on this speed
influence. Group 1 winning mare Rostova and additional Stakeswinners
Tribulus have been produced from mares by Anabaa (by Danzig),
highlighting this successful cross.
Mares by Snippets have proven ideal for Danzig line stallions over
the years and Testa Rossa is greatly responsible for this. He has
produced Stakeswinners Testascana from a mare by Snippets while
his international Group 1 winner Ortensia is from a mare by Picknicker,
a son of Snippets.
Danzig line stallions have enjoyed great success when crossed over
Mr Prospector line mares, and Testa Rossa continues this trend having
produced Group winner Vormista from a mare by Bellotto. It is also
worth noting that Testa Rossa has sired Group 1 winner Testafi able
from a mare by Prince Echo, who is a grandson of Mr Prospector’s
sire Raise A Native.
Doubling up on the blue hen mare Special has also worked extremely
well with Testa Rossa. Multiple Stakeswinner Panipique, Group 2 winner
Sistine Angel and additional Stakeswinners Tia Rossa and Deledio all
share this double cross of Special.
The Testa Rossa/Rory’s Jester cross has a high percentage of winners to
runners and includes 18 individual winners including four stakes performers.
