Amberly Tactical is sired by multi-supreme champion Popham Havengore, who is himself sired by Cambridge Joshua, an upstanding son of the globally renowned Accoyo Remarque. His dam is the equally infamous GT Breeze, a multi-supreme champion daughter of Gilt Edge Tor de Force.

As his name suggests, Amberly Tactical is everything that we could have hoped for as the product of such a renowned genetic pairing.

His fleece is not only superfine, bright and dense but also exhibits fantastic uniformity of both colour and micron. In addition to this, Tactical’s fleece is organised into very advanced micro-staples, each exhibiting a high frequency crimp style, which he carries consistently throughout his blanket and right into the extremities. 

Tactical’s impressive fleece is carried on an equally impressive frame which is very true to type, macho and exhibiting excellent capacity across and enviable substance of bone.

We are truly excited to see the impact that Tactical will have on our herd.
