new sires
they are two of the seven winners out of the Theatrical mare Flamelet, who won at three and was second in the Group 3 Derrinstown Stud 1,000 Guineas Trial from just three runs.
Flamelet is a half-sister to the Listed
Prix de Montretout winner and sire Bezrin (Danzig) and to Firemaid, a winning daughter of Machiavellian.
Firemaid is the dam of Grade 1 Oakleigh Plate winner Shamal Wind, a daughter of Dubawi, and she is also the second dam of the Group 2 Rockfel Stakes winner Al Thakhira, also by Dubawi.
Third dam Darling Flame is by Capote and was placed in the Group 2 Cherry Hinton Stakes.
She is a half-sister to the Group 3 Concorde Stakes and Listed Yasuda Kinen and Keio Hai Spring Cup winner and sire Heart Lake (Nureyev).
Darling Flame is also a half-sister to the dam of Group 3 winner Labirinto and second dam of Brazilian Group 1 winner Tonemai (Wild Event).
Another of her half-sisters is the second dam of Group 2 Nisai Stakes winner Bell Lap (Heart’s Cry).
The fourth dam is the Grade 1 Fantasy Stakes and Grade 3 Oaklawn Oaks winner My Darling One. A daughter of Exclusive Native, she was also placed in the Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks from just eight starts and is the dam of eight winners.
Ten Sovereigns has an international and stallion’s pedigree as the son of No Nay Never, the European champion first and leading second-season sire, and the grandson of another – his broodmare sire Exceed And Exce earned those laurels in Australia.
No Nay Never has done very well with mares by sons of Danehill – as well as Ten Sovereigns, he also has the Group 2 winner Land Force out of a Rock Of Gibraltar mare, his Listed winner Servalan has an Oratorio dam, while Catcher In The Rye is the dam- sire of Listed winner and Group 2-placed Never No More. Danehill Dancer is the dam- sire of Group 1-placed The Irish Rover and the Group 3-placed We Go, and Fastnet Rock is broodmare sire of Neverland Rock.
Danehill himself features as the dam-sire of Listed winner Yesterdayoncemore and is the sire of the second dam of Art Du Val.
Inbreeding to mares by Danehill’s sons with Ten Sovereigns would produce 4x3 to Danehill in the pedigrees of the offspring.
Introducing a third line of Mr. Prospector blood seems to suit No Nay Never very
well and it may also work with his son Ten

Ten Sovereigns: sire No Nay Never is doing well with Danehill line and Mr. Prospector line mares
Sovereigns. The Group 2 Coventry Stakes winner Arizona and his stakes-winning full-sister Nay Lady Nay are both out of an English Channel mare, Chester House is the dam-sire of the Group 2 winner Chestnut Honey, the Group 3 Albany Stakes-placed Celtic Beauty has a dam by Gulch and the stakes-placed Beechwood Ella is out of a Machiavellian mare.
The Listed winner Yesterdayoncemore has Woodman as the sire of her second dam, as has the Grade 1 Summer Stakes third Vitalogy.
Machiavellian is the sire of the second dam of Listed winner No Needs Never with Miswaki filling that role for the Listed second Ventura Lightning.
Ventura Lightning is out of an El Prado mare and No Nay Never has started well with the Sadler’s Wells line. The Group 2 Criterium de Maisons-Laffitte and Listed Rose Bowl Stakes winner Shadn has Sadler’s Wells as her broodmare sire, while the Listed Legacy Stakes winner and Group 1 Cheveley Park Stakes fourth Tango is out of a Galileo mare.
Ten Sovereigns has a winning half-brother and half-sister by High Chaparral and the Galileo-Exceed And Excel cross produced last year’s Derby winner Anthony Van Dyck so Sadler’s Wells line mares, especially those by High Chaparral and Galileo, particularly given that Galileo’s damsire is by Miswaki, should suit Ten Sovereigns.
