| Thanks for sharing with us Bill - I find this the most elegantly understated layout and yet easily accessed, fully informational presentation on the web of sale horses, stallions, etc. that I've come accross. The "History" section alone is a real treat. I could delve into and out of the pedigrees of those 'sale' horses for hours as I continually discover yet another angle of inbreeding, line breeding etc. upon which the Aga Khan's breeding is based going back generations. |

Hi
I fully agree with your assessment. I have studied the Aga Khan's breeding for years, and was lucky enough to acquire several of their beautifully hard bound stud books. Like you, I can lose myself for hours examining the pedigrees, and the wonderful breeding patterns utilized.
