This doesn’t rule out more NORTHERN DANCER blood, as Rock of Gibraltar and Exceed And Excel have enjoyed plenty of success with NORTHERN DANCER line mares. Holy Roman Emperor is injecting speed and precocity into daughters of SADLER’S WELLS , notably siring the high-class international sprinter Rich Tapestry. He also sired the 2016 Gr.2 2yo winner Rich Legacy and the Dewhurst runner-up Leitir Mor from daughters of GALILEO , plus the very speedy Charles The Great from a BARATHEA mare. Mares by sons of NUREYEV should also suit. He has Gr.3 winners out of mares by FASLIYEV and PEINTRE CELEBRE (the smart Pinturicchio), plus a Listed winner out of a daughter of DIABLENEYEV. His high-class daughter Banimpire has a second dam by NUREYEV . HOLY ROMAN EMPEROR has the smart German colt Amarillo from a ROYAL ACADEMY mare, plus Gr.3 and Listed winners out of mares by Royal Academy’s son Ali-Royal. He has achieved pleasing results with KAHYASI mares, siring such as the 2016 Gr.2 winner Parvaneh, so the NIJINSKY line is obviously successful. Holy Roman Emperor already has three stakes winners with second dams by GREEN DESERT and his fast son Louis The Pious is inbred 3x3 to DANZIG . The fact that the very tough Dewhurst Stakes second Leitir Mor and the Gr.2 winner Mango Diva are inbred 2x3 to DANEHILL suggests this is a path worth following. His smart daughter MAUREEN is out of a mare by LINAMIX who also sired the dams of Group winners by Danehill, Danehill Dancer, Dansili and Choisir. Holy Roman Emperor owes his first classic winner to the SHARPEN UP line, siring the runaway 1,000 Guineas winner Homecoming Queen from a DIESIS mare. In siring the Irish 1,000 Guineas second Ishvana and the Gr.1 winner Morandi, Holy Roman Emperor became one of five sons of Danehill to have sired a Group winner from daughters of BERING . Holy Roman Emperor is shaping up well with the MR PROSPECTOR line. He has Group-winning two-year-olds out of mares by MACHIAVELLIAN and ZAFONIC. He also has good winners with LYCIUS mares as their first or second dam. He has 13% Group winners with mares by ZAFONIC . Holy Roman Emperor has sired the high-class Banimpire from a KRIS S . mare. He also has speedy Listed winners from daughters of SRI PEKAN and DR FONG and a New Zealand Gr.1 winner with a RED RANSOM . He has Listed winners out of DAYLAMI , DARSHAAN and DALAKHANI mares. Holy Roman Emperor already has Group performers with second dams by RAINBOW QUEST , GROOM DANCER and NASHWAN .
