It is pretty easy to get the color in and the TB % up but if they have no hope (which I what I understand is the case here in US) of advancing to "full TB status" then there isn't much point unless you just like breeding TB looking Apps (or pintos)
Let's say that's pretty much the point I am interested in bringing up!
As per alluding to the term "Points-to-Points", I am only using it as a
"catch-all" expression to wrap-up all these "non-100%-percent-pure Thoroughbred" equines we would like to eventually coalesce into mainstrem TB racing and TB breeding. The term makes me remember
the pure white mare officially named "RACHEL Vi" (wh. M 1959), who about 15 years ago was registered with the Jockey Club. The nomenclature "Vi" after the name precisely stands for its "sui-generis" status. I am sure "Angrovestud" better understands the scope of these keyed expressions better than me.
