Description
Grandees Gem is a winning mare by 3-time Group 1 winner GRANDERA (IRE). Grandera is a proven broodmare sire with 60.9% winners to runners, including Stakes winner RHAEGAR.
Grandees Gem is out of the multiple winning SNAADEE (USA) mare DEEGEM and is from the family of Stakes winners DARBAAS, BUNDLE OF THANKS and BUNDLE O’ GOLD.
She has been very straightforward in her reproductive career, going in foal on the first cycle in each of her two covering seasons. She has a colt foal at foot by multiple Group 1 winning sire TURFFONTEIN. He is a cracking good foal. Well balanced with a strong top and correct conformation.
TURFFONTEIN is the sire of males the calibre of Group winning millionaire WIDGEE TURF, current Singapore Sprint Sensation and multiple Stakes winner BOLD THRUSTER and recent Stakes winner MANDELA EFFECT.
The Turffontein – Grandera cross is a proven one, with 100% winners to runners.
