You would have to incredibly intuitive in your breeding sense.  Few of us 
ever are this intuitive.  Only a few people in a lifetime have this rare 
talent.  Chance are neither you or I know I am not that intuitive.  No 
disrespect intended, sort of like the chances of winning the power ball 
lotto.  Pretty incredibly unlikely.  I would bet that once that super 
intuitive breeder established their seemingly unrelated breeding, my computer 
would show them they were essentially linebreeding.  The linebred stock was 
just 5,6,7,8,9 generations back i.e. where they cannot be seen.
