    [RC] Standardbreds in Endurance - Beth Bennett


    Hey all,
     
    I am going back to school for a couple of years and thought that perhaps spring of 2003 would be a logical time to breed my mare.  She is 12 and has never been bred.  I have read tidbits about Standardbreds here and there on Ridecamp, and have considered considering breeding her to a Standardbred stallion. 
     
    Also, another question. . . does anyone know if there has been any research done regarding the effects of geographical location on characteristics which are passed to the next generation?  Specifically, does a lineage which is predominately southeastern bred, raised, trained, and ridden produce offspring which are more acclamated to the heat/humidity found in the southeast, or would a west coast, low humidity bred, raised, trained and ridden lineage tend to not be as acclimated.  Gosh, I hope that made sense.
     
    You may either respond to me privately or on the list if you feel others would take interest.  Thanks in advance.

    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE EVERYONE TRY TO COME TO CHATTANOOGA FOR 2003!  IT'S A GREAT CITY!
