RE: [RC] Arabian Definitions - heidi

I agree.  And I've been looking into Aussie winners and European winners every chance I get.  I've admittedly not looked enough at South American winners--just haven't had the data.  But so far, in the Aussie and European programs, I am running smack-dab into the same bloodlines that are successful here.  Persik is a case in point.  You can almost duplicate his pedigree by breeding up a mixture of Abu Farwa, *Witez II, and the French dam line of the mare Follyat.  And it is commonalities between successful programs (and successful pedigrees) that are significant.

But we should be looking across the US, nay across the globe if we are really looking to understand the direction endurance is taking the bloodlines (which was the original direction of this discussion). The Shagya's and the Arabian/StandardBred Crosses. They been breeding for endurance in Uruguay for 40+ years - and Luna Llena (http://www.endurance.net/2005PAC/info.html) exemplified their programs exceptionally well at the PanAm.
