Pedigree

The female line of Quasillo traces to the mare War Kilt, full sister to influential sire War Relic (sire, among others, of Relic). War Kilt and her dam Friar’s Carse are the SigAncs in the female line. War Kilt is close kin (among others) to influential sire Eight Thirty.

Significant female line signposts from the dam of Quasillo are damsires Acatenango, Devil’s Bag, Kings Bishop, Silnet. Of these, Devil’s Bag is a son of Ballade (grandam of Rakeen, Rahy and Singspiel). Silnet is full brother to the grandam of SA sire Prince Sao. Acatenango, his sire Surumu (and that one’s dam Surama) are close kin to SA sire Royal Prerogative (whose dam Bride Elect is close kin to Acatenango’s damsire Aggressor).

Quasillo is half brother to sire Querari, a son of Oasis Dream. The latter is by Green Desert, who is the grandsire of Sea The Stars, making Quasillo and Querari more than half brothers.
