Description
If you are breeding modern grey suri and are questing lustrous fleece with even colour, Borasco is a great choice.
One of his progeny, Dark Sky Hnoss, has been awarded a total of 7 broad ribbons including colour Champion at the Nationals, Heart of England, South of England and Somerset shows in 2023 and North Somerset in 2024.
Borasco is a true modern grey with beautiful solid pewter colour expressed evenly through his whole fleece, which is well nourished and exhibits beautiful lustre. He is a well grown upstanding male.
Borasco has great genetics on his side, with Accoyo and Surilana on the one hand and Canchones on the other.
His sire Surilana Silvertail, a black skinned fawn, was selected by black suri breeder Molly Gardner at Thistledown to improve their coloured suri fleeces. He has an outstanding Accoyo pedigree incuding his grandsires Surilana Icalon and Surilana Bartok and carries a luxurious fleece that is super dense with extreme lustre and good uniformity of micron.
Borasco's dam, Canchones Providence had a successful Australian show career including 1st at the National Show as a Junior Black Female. She is blue black and has kept her fine micron as she has aged.
