Caceres, mid west of Spain

Would be more promising if they get the best possible gene combination from his parents?

For me they have to get strong and very different qualities from each parent, and looking for harmony. If you look to the offspring they showed out, they could be:

1) 845 Bobier 00 x 922.5 Emmons 01
2) 801.5 Stelts 97 x 723 Bobier 99
3) 790 Daletas 01 x 846 Calai 00
4) 705 Stelts 99 x 940 Mombert 98
And the then. the #5: (1 x 2 ) x (3 x 4)

And they should be pollinated in nice days of fine weather not too warm, not too cold, better in Oregon, New York, Pennsylvania or Ohio.
Please, whoever you take this idea, send me a couple of the resulting #5. Appreciated.

Nice ones for you, Rick:
1105 Stucker (846 x 801.5) x 803.4 Davies (845 x 922.5)
884 Calai (846 x 801.5) x 879.8 bailey (845 x 790)
717 Mitchell (723 x 801.5) x 875 Dill (914 x 715)

Did you realize that despite the 875 Dill is going to be four years old, and the 712 Kuhn is getting three, there is not any similar cross to them in AGGC website at least? And that there is not even one cross between the 940 and the 790 as well?
