We are so excited to have Matsudana back in our herd! And we purchased her daughters too!!
Matsudana is a stunning female sired by HFS Jeremiah and out of Aphrodite by Accoyo High Roller. This girl has it all: super fine, dense fleece and an incredible flat, twist/wave lock structure all on a strong, feminine frame. Her fleece is absolutely gorgeous with glistening luster and royale fineness. Matsudana's genetics are impeccable and include standouts such as Baron Lafite, Magnum, Rockstar, Torbio, High Roller and Jackpot.
She inherited the best from her 7X Champion, Judges Choice sire, HFS Jeremiah, and her champion dam, Aphrodite. Both sire and dam are in the top 3% EPDs for many of the fiber traits. Aphrodite has top fiber density and uniformity stats with her skin biopsy as a mature 7 year old female showing a density factor of 64 follicles SQMM and a S/P micron spread of only 6 and a S/P ratio of 10 to 1. Her biopsy AFD at 7 years old was 20.25 micron.
Matsudana is extremely fine and uniform with a first year AFD of 15.9 microns and SD of 3.5. In addition to her fineness and uniformity, she has standout, glistening luster. Continued Top 1% EPD rankings confirm her excellent fiber stats. She has amazing retained fineness and uniformity as she grows older!
Matsudana was biopsied in 2021 as a 31 month old. Her density measures 52.3 follicles SQMM and her S/P ration is 10.8 to 1. She exhibits 4 of 4 glands and only 25% of her secondary fibers show a degree of medullation. Her secondary fibers averaged 17.1 microns and her primary fibers averaged 24.2 microns for a S/P spread of on 7.2 microns. Her AFD based on the biopsy is 17.75. This female is certainly retaining her fineness and uniformity!
Matsudana made her show debut at the 2019 AOA National Halter Show. She placed first in her class. She was also in our first place Breeders Best Three group (with her half brother Kauri and our stud male Fyre Dancer) and second place in our Jeremiah Get of Sire group (with Kauri). At the 2019 CABA Classic, Mats won Color Champion and was in our Breeders Best Three first place and the Jeremiah Get of Sire, who won first place.
Matsudana won Invited Champion as a shorn yearling at the 2020 Nationals Show in a competitive class of full fleece yearlings. She was also in our first place Breeders Best Three at this show and in our second place HFS Jeremiah Get of Sire class.
Pictures and words don't do her justice. She is simply stunning.
