Default Parental identification needed for Cym' clone

I acquired a Japanese-bred Cymbidium clone a few years ago that's now getting ready to flower for the first time and wanted to see if someone here could help to identify its parents. It's called Cym. Dancing Mother Kotone, and although I've done a Google search on this name, I haven't been able to find it anywhere (could be that I might be misspelling part of the name?). I think it might have some devonianum in its background, judging by the look of the leaves, which are wider and shorter than the average cymbidium hybrid. But it would be nice to know for sure what the parents are--least of all so that I'll know whether it's a good idea to either stake the numerous spikes as they begin to elongate, or (if it is actually a devonianum hybrid) leave them alone to see if they become pendulous. Any help here will be much appreciated.

I did a search on this name in OrchidWiz and it doesn't appear. I tried the entire name and each part of the name seperately with no positive results. It appears that the name is not registered. I also tried it at the RHS registration site and it isn't there either.

I tried to dig up info on it, but all I found was the name and address of the breeder in Japan. The variety was registered in 2003. Other than that, no info on the parents!

Thanks, guys. I'll just keep my fingers crossed that I can continue to keep it happy. It's got eleven spikes that are just under three centimeters long. So I'll probably continue to give it cool night temperatures and hope that it does, in fact, have a lot of devonianum in its background.
