Back to China Visit [USA]
CHINA VISIT's sire Red Ransom is a world class sire who is free of NORTHERN DANCER and MR. PROSPECTOR, the world's most powerful sire lines. RED RANSOM has already demonstrated a strong affinity to both these strains. His international classification topper, INTIKHAB, is out of a mare by MR. PROSPECTOR son, CRAFTY PROSPECTOR and has a second dam by NORTHERN DANCER'S son DANZIG.

Other graded stakes winners on the RED RANSOM-MR. PROSPECTOR cross include PICO TENERIFFE and CRYSTAL SYMPHONY. He has also worked well with other branches of the RAISE A NATIVE sire line, most notably ALYDAR.

HIS SIRE LINE

CHINA VISIT [USA] is the grandson of the redoubtable sire of sires ROBERTO and the son of RED RANSOM. RED RANSOM stands in Kentucky and has been a highly successful sire in both the USA and Europe. To date he has sired over 40 stakes winners with earnings of over $31 million including PERFECT STING (Breeders Cup Filly and Mare Turf, Gr.l), and the exciting young stallions SRI PEKAN, INTIKHAB and COMIC STRIP, apart from CHINA VISIT [USA]. ROBERTO was himself the sire of over 80 stakes winners incl. the top class sires, KRIS S. SILVER HAWK, BRIAN'S TIME, LEARFAN and DYNAFORMER, etc.


HIS DAM LINE

CHINA VISIT'S dam, Furajet is by THE MINSTREL. FURAJET herself was precocious and speedy, winning her first 2 starts at 2 years over 5 furlongs including the now stakes race The Hilary Needler Trophy. She was also placed in Group and Listed races over 5 and 6 furlongs including Queen Mary Stales Gr.3 at Royal Ascot and was a close fourth in the King Stand's S. Gr. 2 at Royal Ascot at 3 years. She was described by Racehorses of 1991 ... as "game and consistent" and was rated at 101.

Furajet is a half-sister to KING OF KINGS (Sagitta Two Thousand Guineas, Gr.1 and National Stakes, Gr.1 and now a highly successful youg sire), AMETHYST (winner 1000 Guineas Trial Stakes, L and placed 2nd in Irish 1000 Guineas, Gr.1) and GENERAL MONASH (Prix Robert Papin, Gr.2; successful sire).

Her grandam AMPULLA won the Cherry Hinton Stakes Gr.3 at 2 years and is the dam of ANCESTRAL (a top 2 year old in Ireland and later a major stakes winner in the U.S.A), STEEL HABIT (dam of BATSHOOF, a multiple Gr.2 winner in the UK and a successful sire, SOUND PRINT, (Champion Miler in Hong Kong).

This is the immediate family of STEEL HEART (Middle Park Stakes Gr.1 and a leading sire in Japan), SMOKEY LADY (Champion 2 year old Filly in Ireland), CHILI GIRL (Star Fillies Stakes Gr.3 and dam of CHILIBANG, King's Stand Stakes Gr.2, etc.)

CHINA VISIT's direct male line is an excellent out-cross to the celebrated NORTHERN DANCER and MR. PROSPECTOR lines which already exists in the Usha Stud Farm. With such impeccable credentials, CHINA VISIT [USA] is all poised to make a profound impact on the Indian breeding scene.
