Re: [RC] Still on breeeding ............ - Kristene SmutsFirst of all, I presume we ARE talking about registered horses here>> Yes, but .... I'm talking about hunting down photographic evidence, talking to people who knew the horses, digging to find out that they were used as personal riding horses, etc.>> The siblings and offspring have not been registered. However, ...... You CAN get to "know" many of the horses in a pedigree if you hunt hard enough and long enough. Study A LOT of pedigrees of performing horses>> This particular stallion has all the right endurance lines in his pedigree. But me trying to get all that stuff into my small head? Nah, I just ask my walking encyclopedia - Cindy Budler. Give her a name and she can rattle off the pedigree without even furrowing a brow ;-)) Kristene South Africa ===========================================================REAL endurance is reading the LD vs. Endurance thread/debate every 3 months!!! ~ Heidi Sowards ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ===========================================================
