About the horse

e. Googoo Gaagaa u. M.T.Kirsten ue. Qwerty

Manke:152

Modern M.T.Kirsten was purchased to be a good match for Googoo Gaagaa. She was herself a strong trotter who took three impressive victories at Solvalla as a 4-year-old.

M.T. Kirsten's sire is French Group I winner Qwerty 10.6a 689,710 EUR, who sired the stallion Dexter Fromentro 10.9a 755,590 EUR, among others. Like Orlando Vici, Qwerty is a son of Quadrophenio and, like him, has been very successful in Sweden. Five of the six Swedish-born offspring have won races and three have earned over SEK 500,000.

There is only one horse of racing age by Googoo Gaagaa out of Quadrophenio on the dam's side, and that is Power 1.09.9a, worth SEK 10.9 million, winner of both the Swedish Derby and the European Derby.

An aunt of M.T.Kirsten (Marionette, also mother of Hulken Sisu 11.5a 1.6 million SEK) left with Googoo Gaagaa the mare Jolly Toys Sisu, who unfortunately died after a fine victory in her second start as a 3-year-old.

Metarie's maternal grandfather is Yankee Glide, who also sired Googoo Gaagaa's Hambletonian-winning son Captain Corey (1:08.7a, SEK 9.9 million). Yankee Glide is also on the maternal side of Idemenio Sisu (1:10.9a, SEK 1.4 million).

French blood is present on the maternal side in a large proportion of Googoo Gaagaa's foremost Swedish-born offspring.

• Power 1 .09.9a SEK 11.2 million (Orlando Vici's maternal grandfather)
• Usain Töll1.09.7a SEK 6.5 million (Vip Tilly's maternal grandfather , French maternal great-grandmother)

• Borups Victory 1 .10.7a SEK 2.6 million (Coktail Jet's maternal grandfather )
• Night Art 12 .3a SEK 1.0 million (Fakir du Vivier's great-grandfather )

Googoo Gaagaa has only 75 daughters aged three years and older, and of these, eleven have earned over SEK 700,000 or the equivalent.
