He is a beautiful little guy! Love his markings too. Does he have a name yet (barn or otherwise)?

Wow, the mind simply boggles! :shock: $16 million dollars for a horse? Yes, I admit I am a little jealous; I wish I had a few thousand dollars I could just spend as I choose, let alone a million! :lol: I also admit, I am little surprised he went for that given his pedigree, but I saw a short feature...

Mount McKinley?

Can anyone tell me anything about the stallion Mount McKinley?

I know his pedigree is MR. PROSPECTOR x Julie's Jazz, NUREYEV. Other than that, I don't know anything about him.

Can anyone tell me about his race record? His conformation? Post pictures?

Thanks so much! :D

For Jorge: Birdcatcher Spots on TB mare

I just thought Jorge might like to take a look at this mare: http://horseadoption.com/horsedetail.asp?id=222

She looks like she has a bunch of little Birdcatcher spots, but no other white markings except a very faint star.

Enjoy :) .

I was taking a look at the contract. It says under Registration Number "cannont be given out, Jockey Club Regulations. I can give a copy of his registration certificate without his number." What? :shock: Is that actually true? I have NEVER heard of ANY Registry that did not allow you to share the ho...

Mystic II

This is an older guy and I am trying to find out more about his bloodlines: *Mystic II (Relic x Tosca) - imported from France, 1954 Stallion The Database has him noted as having died in 1986, but only lists foals until 1984 so I am just wondering if those were his last foals or if he has others that...

Sires that give speed?

I don't mean just chef-de-races; I mean any stallion. What stallions are known for being successful at siring early speed and sprinters? This is just a research question as I don't own any mares to breed, but I am curious about what lines/studs are know for siring horses that have a lot of speed and...

Hate to sound like a prude or something, but isn't she rather young to be bred? :o I mean, she is just barely 3 right? I thought you really wanted to wait until mares are 4 or so to breed. And I have also heard that you want mares to be in good condition for breeding, as opposed to the leaner condit...

Good lord, that horse is incredible! :shock: He ran the whole race like it was nothing at all! I don't think I saw the jockey do anything but move his hands a little. He just cruised away from the field. :o 17 straight wins?! Wow, what is the record cause that has GOT to be close if not better! :D

I was doing some research on Seattle Slew. When I clicked on Poker, his broodmare sire, I got this page: http://www.pedigreequery.com/poker/ It takes you to some weird online poker game thing :?

Congrats :D I am no expert, but I hear that there are quite a few mares that have longer gestations and there are mares that have babies "early". Sort of like people :wink:!

On to Glory?

I recently purchased some old (from mid-90’s) Ocala Breeder Sales catalogs. One of the Florida sires that caught my eye was On to Glory (Bold Lad-Shenanigans). I am pretty sure he is deceased by now because he was born in 1971. I can’t seem to find too much information about him so can anyone help m...
