Sire: Snowmass Dire Straits

Dam: Xanadu Talisker [Xanadu P Althea daughter] 

Comments: Talisker’s dam is Xanadu Althea, CC @ Nationals & JC at GWAS. Althea is also Xanadu Aristide’s full sister. When we sold Loro Piano, we purposefully kept 3 of his best daughters from superstar dams like Althea, to carry those combined genetics into our next generations. For Talisker’s first breeding we chose Dire Straits and are very pleased with the results.

Sire: Snowmass Dire Straits

Dam: Xanadu Sister Golden Hair
   [Xanadu Aristide daughter/Presidio granddaughter]

Comments: His name roughly translate to “Fast Forward” and it’s a perfect fit. Again, another repeat of a breeding we love. This guy has herdsire written all over him, from his advanced fleece style and density to his perfect frame and head. He’s at 42 pounds at 2 months of age, too. His dam is our multi champion, Xanadu Aristide daughter/Presidio granddaughter. One of our best, deep genetic lines.

Dam: Xanadu Au Courant
    [Maple Brook Barnabus Daughter/Presidio G-Daughter]

Au Courant, along with her 3 full sisters, is a keystone dam for us. This young male is her first with Spartan, and he’s just excellent. He packs exceptional fleece density from both parents onto his robust frame. This guy will be an outstanding herdsire.

Sire: Snowmass Lover's Spartan

Dam: Xanadu P Allure
   [PC Running Late daughter/ [Barnabus granddaughter/]

Spartan continues to surprise with his fleece density & architecture and his color genetic range. Glitter is a creamy cocoa color with MSG spots on her shoulder and hip. We think she’s also picked up unique color genetics from Running Late.

      [Maple Brook Barnabus daughter/Presidio granddaughter]

Cachet’s another of the 4 full sisters. This cria comes from a breed back for her to Dire Straits after the pair produced the outstanding champion, Xanadu Zenobia, last year. A can’t miss match.
