Capital Montana is a young mare with a notably strong sire. Capital My Friend is by Nabab de Reve, a son of Quidam de Revel and a major breeding force in his own right, out of a Heartbreaker mare, a combination that produces scope from the sire side and technique from the dam. Montana’s own dam, Capital Cora, is the dam of upcoming talents Capital Marvin (currently 1.10m) and Capital Rohan.

Her damsire, Capital Capriccio, brings Cor de la Bryère and Capitol I, two of the most consequential names in Holstein breeding, together with damline 18b1. This provides a solid foundation of jumping blood beneath a modern top line.

Montana is in foal to Capital’s Tandoori Pommex Z, a young Zangersheide chestnut by Tobago Z, a two-time winner of Sires of the World and the earner of over 2.7 million Euros with Daniel Deusser. Tandoori’s dam jumped 1.60m with Lorenzo de Luca, his second dam 1.50m, and his third dam is Fragance de Chalus, dam of Mylord Carthago and Bamako de Muze and one of the most influential broodmares in the sport’s history. For a buyer prepared to invest in a young mare, this pairing puts elite modern blood over a sound, proven foundation and provides a mare who may herself compete in the sport.
