Sire: RR TOUCHSTONE - 9X CC/RCC* ARI#
32661590 Medium Brown Touchstone is a legend.
After a brilliant show career he established himself as one of the most pre potent studs in our 16 years of breeding.
His last show was at age 4 where he Championed with a commendation as having the finest fleece in the color class juveniles included!
His crias have consistently inherited the uniformity, brightness, definition and outstanding length Touchstone maintains.
They too, with limited show exposure, have taken Championships.
His mark on our herd improvement has been indelible. He has raised the bar...
Dam: RR LENA HORNE* ARI#
35117582 Medium Fawn Lena Horne is a sturdy foundation female. Her first pregnancy was an outstanding black son, Harry Potter. She has passed on the density that we have come to expect from her lines. We are using her roan son RR Sherlock Holmes to continue the RR Roan program.
As done through Ian Watt at Alpaca Consulting USA, Lena is one of our densest roans:
Density: 71.4 /mm
Secondary:Primary fiber ratio: 12.4:1
In-skin mean primary fiber diameter: 27.0 µ Standard Deviation: 4.0 µ Range: 19.3 µ to 38.0
In-skin mean secondary fiber diameter: 21.4 µ Standard Deviation: 3.4 µ Range: 12.7 µ to 35.9
She had a beautiful bay black female in 2020 RR Madam Justice, who is stunning and was sold separately. Her 2021 cria, RR Daisy Buchanan is a beautiful female who looks exactly like her multiple champion sire, RR Touchstone. Lena has been bred to RR Modigliani, a dark rose grey stunner for another winner.
Description
Sherlock Holmes is no mystery.
He has stepped up to herdsire row already as one of the best roans we've produced.
It's no surprise given his pedigree.
Both his parents carry black, so he has as good a chance of producing bay roan (modern rose grey) as he is of producing the very desired blue roan (modern silver grey).
Had it not been for Covid, this is one male that we would have loved to show.
Our plan for the next generation in the roan program has been to select the best roans to replace Arturo (Modigliani) and Touchstone (Sherlock Holmes). We wanted the sons to be as remarkable as their pre-potent sires...mission accomplished. NOW BREEDING!
