		War Admiral would have a marked advantage over La Troienne regarding the number of appearances in a pedigree, since was is a stallion, and the sire of 371 thoroughbreds.
		Yes, La Troienne certainly was a great mare by all measures, and yes, the boys certainly do have an advantage over the girls in terms of number of offspring.
		The collaboration of War Admiral and La Troienne in the pedigrees of the modern thoroughbred is phenonemal.

	La Troienne
		La Troienne was bred by Boussac during the formative years of a breeding program which was arguably the most dominant in Europe over the next three decades.
		La Troienne was catalogued as hip number 640, one number before fellow Boussac cull Lespedeza, a daughter of Frizette.
		La Troienne was mated again to Blue Larkspur, and the result was another filly, born in the spring of 1939 who was named BUSINESSLIKE.

	ANGELICA, ST.SIMON'S FULL SISTER A BIG PLUS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		La Troienne who is of the 1S female family line has Angelica, St. Simon's full sister in her 5th gen. on her sire's side and in the 6th gen.
		I do think you see that La Troienne's strength in the breed comes from inbreeding on both sides of her family to Galopin and his full son and daughter.
		La Troienne also got strength from Bend Or who was duplicated twice on both sides of her pedigree.

	War Admiral / La Troienne
		La Troienne never had a named foal by a sire free of a male strain of Domino, so if there is La Troienne present, then there is male Domino present (see article on this site regarding La Troienne).
		Busanda is immortal as she is dam of Buckpasser and Blue Eyed Momo is dam of Francis S., he the sire of Gonfalon, dam of Ogygian, he the damsire of Breeders' Cup Juvenile (G1) hero Johannesburg.
		Mutakkdim is doubled to Buckpasser with five lines of La Troienne and got Treasure Coast Gem out of Twice Crowned, she tail female to Busanda, dam of Buckpasser.

		INFLUENTIAL broodmare La Troienne was to the fore at Moonee Valley on January 4 with the impressive winner Atin in the MV New Year Handicap over 2040m.
		La Troienne is represented one generation closer by her daughters Big Hurry and Black Helen, sisters, by Black Toney.
		La Troienne has been a prominent female influence for a long time especially through her sire son Bimlech and in the tail female lines of Buckpasser and in Australia through the successful sires Belong to Me, Don’t Say Halo (Halo), Hula Chief (Marceau), Air de France (Seattle Slew) and Forest Glow (Green Forest).

		Foaled in 1926, La Troienne (Teddy-Helen de Troie, by Helicon) was a useful racehorse in Britain before being sold at auction to the USA.
		Such is the La Troienne prepotency that the stallions Brilliance and Lord Of Warriors will have ample chance to utilize her bloodlines Down Under.
		Priceless Gem, who is particularly important in the La Troienne saga, left the champion New Zealand sire Noble Bijou (by Vaguely Noble) and his illustrious half sister Allez France (by Sea Bird), whose 13 wins to 2400m included the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe.

	DEVIL'S BAG/SAINT BALLADO
		Teddy’s most important daughter, La Troienne, had but one significant offspring who was not a tail-male descendant of Domino.
		The effect of Helene de Troie, La Troienne’s dam, is likewise indicative of La Troienne’s optimal generational range.
		SWs resulted from 15 of the 118 mares in whose ancestries La Troienne was counted, but only 75 foals were out of mares with La Troienne in their fifth generation or closer, from which group came 12 of the 15 SWs.

	History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Sometimes she is a veritable force throughout the breed like La Troienne*, Mumtaz Mahal, Frizette, or Quiver and other times she is a more recent matron who has shown a proclivity for stamping her family with certain characteristics.
		However, if the bloodline is filled with quality like La Troienne* or Selene's, said mare may very well be responsible for even more stakes winners than a given sire, or even a sire line.
		When the mare is an exceptional one like La Troienne* or Grey Flight, we will often see them inbred to, and it is not unusual to find five or six crosses of notable older mares like Maggie B. B., Selene or Lavendula in any important pedigree today.

		La Troienne is from female family one and Tricon has other members of this family including Source Sucree.
		There is a connection between La Troienne (by Teddy) and family 16 members (some of whom are also by Teddy).

		It seems that with La Troienne the more the merrier and this type of pattern appears to be very common.
		Mr Busher (grandson of La Troienne) is a full brother to Striking and Busher both of whom appear in the pedigree of Seattle Slew.
		This should be a nice complement to the La Troienne in Bachelor Duke’s pedigree.

		On the heels of this success and other runners such as G1 winner Ghazi, POLISH NAVY was bought by breeders in Japan where he sired six crops before recently being repatriated back to the U.S. As his fourth dam is the foundation mare La Troienne, POLISH NAVY represents a genetic goldmine.
		Inbreeding to La Troienne is the most obvious choice in choosing mates for POLISH NAVY as scores of horses inbred to that great mare have literally shaped the breed.
		Buckpasser-line mares provide a close cross and further reinforce the family as POLISH NAVY's dam is a half-sister to Buckpasser.

		The second one is through Smarty Jones's own tail-female line, going back to his fifth dam, Striking, also bred on the War Admiral/La Troienne cross.
		This is another good reason why Seattle Slew (whose dam is inbred to this cross, once through Striking) and Buckpasser (his dam is bred on this cross) should provide good nicks for him.
