Gimmethegreenlight (08c – Canny Lad, Marauding); Kin-breeding: More Than Ready’s dam Woodman’s Girl is kinbred 2x2 to her two grandams, Playmate x Good

Landing. The female line of Good Landing (and thus also of More Than Ready) traces to La Troienne, as do the female lines of Playmate’s sire (Buckpasser) and dam (Intriguing). Good Landing is close kin to Halo and Hail To

Reason (More Than Ready’s sire line).

PEdiGREE

Gimmethegreenlight’s significant female line ancestors are Oriens (by Hyperion) and closer up Victory Piper.

The latter is kinbred 2x1 Red Briar x Sweet Victory, with

Hyperion a significant line in both. Red Briar is from the

Red Ray branch of the Black Ray female line. Also from this female line is Blushing Groom, who can provide interesting links to Gimmethegreenlight, notably through his son Jallad who carries a host of other elements also present in Red Briar and Victory Piper. Rainbow

Quest is another Blushing Groom son who kin-links to

Gimmethegreenlight’s bottom female line. StAMinA
