Pedigree
On the sire-side of the pedigree is Deep Impact, whose female line is the one of half brothers Nashwan (Blushing Groom), Unfuwain (Northern Dancer), Nayef (Gulch) – all three sires, and in the South African context the female line of sire Right Approach (Macchiavellian). This female line traces to the mare Feola, grandam among others of sires Aureole, Round Table and Doutelle. Deep Impact is sire of two Gr1 winning half brother to Flower Alley, both sires in Japan, where Flower Alley’s Derby winning son I’ll Have Another has sired Gr-winners.
On the dam-side of the pedigree the focus falls on 5th dam Conniver, who was Champion Older Female in USA, with 15 wins from 56 starts. She’s dam of Clandestine (damsire among others of sire Star de Naskra and in the South African context of sire Beldale Lustre) and his full sister Double Agent (the 4th dam of Danon Platina). Conniver is a daughter of sire Discovery and is close kin to Miss Disco (dam of Bold Ruler) and to Geisha (dam of Native Dancer), while Conniver’s dam The Schemer is close kin to War Admiral. Suggesting that pedigrees with combinations of any or all these influential stallions might be of importance. Other sires with Discovery as damsire are Hasty Road, Traffic Judge, Intentionally.
Notable in this stallion-context should be National Assembly, whose grandam Bold Princess is by Bold Ruler out of Grey Flight, the female line of Native Dancer. National Assembly’s dam is by Buckpasser, who has War Admiral as damsire.
Also of note is the close kinship of Conniver and her dam The Schemer with the mare Sunfeathers, in the female line of Fort Wood. Fort Wood’s 3rd dam Portage is closely kinbred (2x2) through Sunfeathers and another mare, Brushup, dam of Portage’s sire War Admiral. Brushup and War Admiral are close kin to The Schemer.
To add, Dona Platina’s damsire Unbridled’s Song has as 5th dam the mare Subterranean, who is close kin to all of Buckpasser, War Admiral, Discovery and Blade Of Time (grandam of Damascus).
Then also, Dona Platina’s 3rd dam Rare Lady (Never Bend) is close kin to Courtly Dee, grandam of Green Desert.

- Female line descendants of Feola, notably Aureole, Round Table, Nashwan, Nayef, Unfuwain, Right Approach.
