There are a couple of options that seem really good.
1) a good 1370 Rose/1068 Wallace cross like the 904 Stelts, 1348 Hester, or the 1483 Werner (1385 Jutras x 1207 McKie). The 1483's grand parents are (1068x998)x(1370x1068) including the parents of the 1689 and 1662.
2) Something with some 985 Werner. The 1350 Starr would be a safe bet. it has grown some huge pumpkins without seeing much dirt, so you could probably count on it growing over 1500 again. The 1500.5 Revier may be pretty good too, it's a 985 Werner x 1207 Young.
good luck deciding.

That must have been a tip from my subconscious to add the 1237 dmg McKie to the list. It was grown on a 1370 and crossed with the 842 Eaton that grew the 1041 McKie. It could be a sleeper.
