A ten-time winner himself, Dink won the Spanish 2000 Guineas and placed third in the Spanish Derby. He raced until he was a seven-year-old before starting his breeding career in Spain with Luis Alvarez Cervera who comments:

“I was fortunate to buy Dink when the owner decided to retire him from the track. I always liked him as a racehorse; well balanced, strong with correct conformation. Dink won 10 of his 30 starts including the Spanish 2000 Gns. He was placed 10 times and finished third in the Spanish Derby. During his racing career he performed well in soft going. He possesses a natural will to jump that transmits to his progeny along with his lovely and easy temperament both to handle and when riding. He has shown himself to be very fertile.

As well as Nube Negra he has produced Leilani, who won 3 times as a 2-year-old, he has also produced Newdi Bareliere one of the best 2-year-old fillies that I have bred and who is on track for the Spanish Oaks. Dink’s ability, temperament, movement and balance transmits onto his offspring.

His sire, Poliglote, needs no introduction. His dam, Napeta, is by Woodman a great damsire, who comes from the same female line as the great Miesque.”

Eligible for the Elite Mares’ Incentive Scheme

I have been impressed by Dink’s offspring, he produces good models who have excellent movement.
