Family 5-h (Simon's Shoes)

Postby Bill from WA » Mon Jun 15, 2009 2:04 pm

Hi

Someone has changed the female family of Simon's Shoes (Nureyev, Atticus, Bandini, Bienamado, Thatch, Cutlass, Desert Hero, Sadler's Wells, and on and on) from 5-h to 9-e. The change was made at Toxophilite Mare (1861), whose full sister, Assagai is properly listed as being from family 5-h. Although there have been questions raised as to the origins of certain 5-h lines, there has been no difinitive evidence yet uncovered that would substantiate a change of the family number at this point in time. This is a really big dose of misinformation. Can someone rectify this huge error?

Thanks,

Bill

Bill, see this thread. I *think* the db updates FF#'s 1x/month around the 22d.

Thanks. I haven't kept up with the posts much lately. Someone emailed me about the problem. Sorry to exacerbate your workload.
