Pedigree Query

When I log in and try to access a horse name, the pane for the pedigree shows gobbledegook typical of virus. (I lost a lot of data to a virus some years ago.) I can sometimes get the pedigree to come up if I repeatedly ask for it, but not always. I closed your site (I usually keep it up at all times...

Since I logged in this morning, I have not able to see the pedigrees I tried to pull up. All I get is gobbledegook - random symbols and letters. It looks like what I got when my computer downloaded a virus many years ago which corrupted many of my saved documents. I've been a content provider from t...

I am trying to update the racing record of Borderlescott. The data stops at his 6yo year, but he raced until age 13 and added another half-a-million BPS to his earnings. He is locked! I have done a lot of work on this site, mostly back when it was the Del Mar pedigree site and in the early years of ...

I have some of the data from the 1960s and 70s in my research notes back home, but I won't be back there until late January. Will assist then. What happened to the Oaks equivalent, called, I think, the Clasico Dalia?

I goofed in entering the info for this year's GP Oswaldo Aranha at Gavea, run yesterday. I hit the 3 instead of the 4, so it is listed under 2013. I have tried three times to edit the entry, but it doesn't 'take'. The correct information is Year - 2014 order of finish; Beach Ball, Notting Tomorrow, ...

"He's not a great sire but i would not go so far as to call BB a bust. he produces a few useful runners. " Silver Charm had a G2 winner and Derby candidate in the first crop, they still sent him to Japan. "Not big on CC whatsoever in the stud barn. I think he's a freak of nature on th...

Thank you, Madelyn. This was my first mare, my first breeding and I was crushed to lose them.

Guess you didn't read too carefully. I lost the foal, as well. Emergency Caesarian was too late. Sold the weanling at Kee Nov, so I am now horse-less.

Mini's Mom - look at your mare's female family. Look at her dam, her (half-)sisters, her second dam, her aunts and great-aunts, and their daughters. That is where you will find the best indication of whether you will get a hard-knocking type of runner from your mare, IMHO. You also find the best ind...

Crisford is the guy who is charge of the racing stable in Britain. Sheikh Mo is a big-wig in the government of the UAE as well as being hereditary ruler of Dubai (one of the constituent parts of the UAE). When the racing in Dubai is done and the horses move back to Britain (if they ever left), he's ...

The only fillies to win the Kentucky Derby all raced decently against males in previous races. Some fillies who beat colts in prep races (Silver Spoon, Althea, Evita Argentina) didn't run as well or didn't start. Such top fillies as Excellent Meeting and Cupecoy's Joy didn't place, despite excellent...

Don't forget Prized - he sired a two-time Auckland Cup (3200m=2 miles) winner during his shuttle time in New Zealand. And another one I have found is the upset Preakness winner Deputed Testamony, believe it or not. His only influence of note has been as damsire of Bellamy Road (Wood Memorial), Duckh...

My late lamented mare Our Majestic Cat was one of those caught without a chance to win again because of the fear of her being claimed. She was a half-sister to dual G1 winner Schossberg and other stakes horses and cost $410,000 at auction as a yearling. She won her maiden and her n1x race relatively...

This is especially a problem with Australian and New Zealand races, many of which have had many different sponsored names in the last few decades. (One of my favorite odd names was the G1 'Fruit 'n Veg' S, once known as the Marlboro 50,000, also the Rothmans, the Windfields, and the Western Mail.) T...

Horses with ouchy feet do run with their head higher,trying I guess to limit the weight or pounding.Look at those gaited horses with purposely sored feet Gaited horses have erect, bowed necks when performing, with their heads much closer to vertical than horizontal. Rare Brick's head was held high ...
