MATING SUGGESTIONS: Footstepsinthesand’s affinity for DANZIG line mares was underlined, yet again, in 2021 when Marianafoot, the son of an ANABAA mare, developed into one of France’s best sprinters. He now has a top-class 17% Group winners out of mares by ANABAA . Footstepsinthesand enjoys plenty of success with DANEHILL mares, notably Gr.1 winners Chachamaidee, Steinbeck (Pure Champion) and Gr.3 winner Sent From Heaven. Chachamaidee’s sister J Wonder is a dual Gr.3 winner and he has 12% SWs with daughters of DANEHILL . He also has a Gr.2 winner with a dam by FASTNET ROCK , and SWs out of mares by ROCK OF GIBRALTAR , DANSILI and EXCEED AND EXCEL . He has a Gr.2 winner out of a mare by Danehill’s grandson KONIGSTIGER . Footstepsinthesand must therefore be a leading option for mares with DANEHILL blood. He also has a Gr.2 winner with a dam by GRAND LODGE and Listed winners with dams by GREEN DESERT (2), OASIS DREAM (2), KEY OF LUCK and LANGFUHR . His Gr.1 winner Chachamaidee and Gr.2 winner Living The Life have second dams by SADLER’S WELLS and Footstepsinthesand also has Group-placed performers out of daughters of ENTREPRENEUR , IN THE WINGS and KING’S THEATRE . Other sons of Giant’s Causeway have Gr.1 winners out of mares by BARATHEA , TOBOUGG , GALILEO , NEW APPROACH and SADLER’S WELLS . Footstepsinthesand sired the useful filly Turf Laurel from a TEOFILO mare. He also also has talented performers out of mares by Nureyev’s sons FASLIYEV , PEINTRE CELEBRE , SPINNING WORLD , STRAVINSKY (Gr.2 winner Heshem) and WOLFHOUND , plus grandson PIVOTAL (Gr.3 winner Onenightidreamed). His Gr.2-winning juvenile Formosina was out of a mare by ROYAL APPLAUSE . Another son of Giant’s Causeway sired the top sprinter Blue Point from the same ROYAL APPLAUSE mare. Giant’s Causeway enjoyed tremendous success with mares from the MR PROSPECTOR male line. Footstepsinthesand sired Gr.2 winners Living The Life and Minakshi from MACHIAVELLIAN mares, the very useful Helene Spirit and Gr.3 winners Queen of the Sand and Rosso Corsa from mares by WOODMAN . His 13 foals out of KING’S BEST mares include Gr.2 winner Larchmont Lad and Listed winner Fourioso. Footstepsinthesand’s dual 2019 Gr.2 winner Threat had a dam from the FAPPIANO branch. Mares by DARSHAAN appeal as he has speedy Group winners with dams by DARSHAAN and his son MARK OF ESTEEM , while 2YO Gr.3 winner Marie’s Diamond is also out of a MILL REEF line mare, by KALANISI . Although Blushing Groom appears twice in his pedigree, Footstepsinthesand has some black-type horses with a third line. His Gr.2-placed son Handsome Devil is inbred 3x3 to RAINBOW QUEST and his Gr.3 winner Arnold Lane is inbred 4x3 to RAHY . The AHONOORA line could reinforce Footstepsinthesand’s juvenile ability, as he has two-year-old Listed winners out of mares by INDIAN RIDGE and his son COMPTON PLACE . 35
