Ridecamp: Re: [RC] FYI

>AI

My brain is fried. 4 cups of coffee and counting.  I realized after
reading someone else's post and having my fifth mental image of "ET" (the
Extra Terrestrial) that I'd been saying AI...totally different
thing...but I was thinking ET. :-P

My dad once bought a 2 year old App filly to race. Her sire "won $10,000
as a 2 year old before he was injured and retired...just think how much
he'd have won if he'd stayed sound" was the line they always repeated. 
Broke down is broke down....but who cares if a race horse stays sound in
the back of the pack year after year?  

I have a friend right now with as nice an Arab mare as I've seen. She's
just getting started in endurance and enjoying her mare who happens to be
12 and has never been bred.  What to do?  Hate to wait too long...hate to
lose competition time...but she is one mare that the more I'm around her
I think, "This one needs to contribute to the gene pool of the future".

P.S. on the "masculine mare" subject...I remember that Genuine Risk
wasn't breedable...is it that common for the really athletic mares to
have those problems?
