0200HO00423 Canyon-Breeze Alaska is Semex's #1 LPI Release sire in April, ranking an impressive #12 LPI at +2039 GLPI.
Sired by Laudan and from the same family that gave us Semex great Canyon-Breeze Allen, Alaska debuts ready to work as a Health$mart sire and ranking high for both TPI and PL in the Semex lineup.
Alaska's dam is a VG-85-2YR-USA BW Marshall from a VG-88-6YR-USA Storm and then the EX-94-3E-USA DOM Emory sister to Allen himself. Their dam is an EX-93-5YR-USA GMD DOM x EX-91-2E-USA GMD DOM x VG-85-7YR-USA, all with high production lifetime records.
Health$mart sires are identified as those that sire the most valuable and profitable cows on the dairy. These sires excel for qualities that dairies can easily quantify in their ledgers including Daughter Fertility, Milking Speed, SCS, Herd Life and Daughter Calving Ease. Alaska easily fits this bill being +103 Daughter Fertility, +103 Milking Speed, low 2.78 SCS, +106 Herd Life and +105 Daughter Calving Ability in Canada. All this with a solid conformation, solid +1039 Milk and positive deviations of +0.12F and +0.13P.
In the USA, Alaska will create a great deal of interest, not only for his outcross pedigree but also for his solid type debut of +2.06 PTAT, +1.47UDC and +1.58 FLC. Additionally, his low 2.88 SCS, 8% Calving Ease +2.8 PL and positive deviations make him extremely profitable. Additionally, Alaska is Semex's #5 TPI sire and #4 PL sire.

Semex has been at the forefront of genomic research since 2003,and has been incorporating genomics into its breeding program to increase both the number and diversity of elite bulls to our clients through our Genomax™ program.

Semex carefully selects the best genomic tested young sires available today. These sires are those that top the rankings, whether you’re looking for LPI or TPI, and are the best for: Net Merit; TPI; LPI; Type; and Calving Ease.

Recently, Semex reached an agreement to market seven sons of the former #1 CTPI cow Wabash-Way Emilyann VG-88-2YR-USA for its Genomax™ program in cooperation with Taurus Service Inc. The first of these is 0200HO76579 Wabash-Way Evolve, Emilyann’s high-ranking Bolton son.

“This unique partnership between Semex, Taurus Service Inc and Emilyann’s owners allows the influence of this great cow family to make an impact worldwide,” says Paul Larmer, Semex Alliance Chief Executive Officer. “Semex sees this partnership as an extremely progressive step for all partners, as Emilyann and her sons are the epitome of Semex’s Balanced Breeding philosophy emphasizing longevity and profitability through proven cow families and elite sires. We’re excited to offer Evolve to customers worldwide as part of our Genomax™ line-up and share marketing responsibilities in the USA market with Taurus Service Inc.”

Evolve’s dam, Emilyann, has enjoyed tremendous international success as the former #1 CTPI cow and January’s #5 CTPI cow. Popular for many years, Emilyann rose to fame following the 2008 Global Glamour Sale where she commanded $630,000, making her the second high seller of the year. From a powerful and elite cow family, Emilyann’s Oman dam, Crockett-Acres Elita VG-87-4YR-USA DOM, is also a former #1 CTPI cow. The maternal line continues with an Mtoto, Crockett-Acres Mtot Elly EX-90-6YR-USA GMD DOM, followed by an EX-90-5YR-USA Rudolph, EX-95-3E-USA GMD DOM Leadman, VG-89-2YR-USA DOM Blackstar and five more VG ...

In April 2010, the worldwide Goldwyn phenomenon continues with the release of Goldwyn’s first proven son, Designer Series™ sire 0200HO03491 Ladys-Manor Aurora.
Aurora arrives at a time when the demand for all things Goldwyn only equals his growing list of accomplishments! This includes recently being named the 2009 Worldwide Premier Sire by Holstein International, and dominating the 2009 All-American and All-Canadian contests. In the April 2010 genetic evaluation, Goldwyn still ranks near the top for TPI at #8 overall with a +2115 GTPI, and remains Canada’s #1 Second Crop Sire, ranking #4 overall at +2581 GLPI.
Aurora’s maternal line adds just as much interest, being extremely deep and powerful. His dam is a VG-85-2YR-USA Champion from a VG-89-3YR-USA GMD DOM 2* Aaron, then eight more generations of VG or EX dams, each with tremendous production records!
Eagerly anticipated by breeders worldwide, Aurora’s initial Canadian information does not disappoint. Like father, like son, Aurora excels for Herd Life, Conformation and Somatic Cell Scores. His solid conformation scores, +102 Herd Life and low 2.68 Somatic Cell Scores will make him instantly popular around the world.
“The Auroras are very refined, (like Goldwyns), with a feminine head, neck and legs,” says Carl Saucier, CIAQ Progeny Analyst. “They’ve got nice shallow udders are medium-sized and very refined with clean thighs and good udder texture.”
In the USA, where Goldwyn still dominates the top 10 High Ranking Sire Report at +3.33 PTAT, Aurora debuts with +2.47 PTAT, +1.60 UDC, +1.21 FLC and an overall +1672 GTPI. These type figures are supported by positive fat and protein deviations and low 2.73 SCS.
With big shoes to fill, Aurora steps into the worldwide spotlight backed by a great first proof. Additionally, breeders can capitalize on his high fertility Repromax™ status and his designation as a profitable Health$mart™ sire. Worldwide, the demand for this sire has been tremendous even ...
