Re: Arab/QH cross

["Joan Ruprecht" <ruprecht@tidepool.com>]

I stated both Ride and Tie and Endurance on arab/quarter horse mixes, some
of those included some morgan and throughbred, and of course only God knows
what else.

They were all fantastic athletes as well as dependable friends for me,  They
all went thousands of mile, left me their foals to rememberthem by.

Our family is still in competition on the grand kids of these half breeds,
SO dont count them out because they are not pure Arabian.  There are a lot
of us mixes out  there doing great, and still competing in their 20's.
