Elitloppet ante portas! A closer look at the paternal and maternal lines
This sunday, the unofficial world championship for sprinters takes place again at Stockholm-Solvalla in Sweden. Again a great field of world class trotters, including two US entries (Maven and Uncle Peter), while contrariwise Sebastian K. moved to the USA. From last year’s field four horses are competing again, Shaq Is Back, Panne de Monteur, Raja Mirchi and last year’s winner Nahar.

Conclusion:
A little bit surprising, the maternal line of Ida Chief, born in 1887, sends the majority of trotters into the eliminations, Maven, Truculent and Uncle Peter. This line had a late output, starting especially with Hambletonian winner 1990, Harmonious, before it came to trotters like Furman, Probing, Flirtin’ Man, Lanson, up to a great crop of 2009 with horses like Uncle Peter, Maven, Truculent, Intimidate and also Little Brown Fox, the latter recently sold to Sweden.
Both of the Italian entries are out of the famous maternal line of Medio. In summary, 14 of the 16 trotters are out of US maternal lines, 2 out of French (Digital Ink & Timoko).
The sires of 7 participants are bred in the USA (Cantab Hall (2), Credit Winner (2), Ken Warkentin, Super Photo Kosmos, Glidemaster), 5 in France (Love You (2), Imoko, Kesaco Phedo, Juliano Star), and 2 each in Italy (Viking Kronos, Varenne) and Sweden (Revenue (2)).
4 of the 16 horses in the Elitlopp eliminations are 100% US Standardbred (Shaq Is Back, Prussia, Panne de Moteur, Uncle Peter), the rest has French blood in their veins, all with one exception with majority of US blood: Maven (99%), Pascia’ Lest (95%), Delicious (94%), Raja Mirchi (85%), Truculent (79%), Nahar and Sanity (78%), Juliano Rags (72%), Reven d’Amour (68%), Digital Ink (62%) and Caballion (59%). Only Timoko has a majority of French blood (65%).
In summary, 7 of the entries are Swedish bred, 5 US bred, 2 Italian and 1 each French and Norwegian.
