linebreeding
what would be the advantages or disadvantages of linebreeding to horses such as Key to the mint, khaled, nortern dancer and nearctic? do any of these horses carry any particular soundness issues?
There will be discouraging times. But a life without horses;
Now that's discouraging.

Northern Dancer and Nearctic are remarkable for producing talented and sound individuals. Khaled and Key to the Mint blood is harder to find in pedigrees, but both are felt to be plusses. Khaled is in all the Wild Again clan, and sire of Swaps. I think he must have been better at producing broodmares than sire-sons. I have two mares of five with him as a sire of an ancestress.
I've searched for Key to the Mint blood, because one of my mares has Key Bridge as an ancestress (his dam). I've found it in Cape Canaveral and Cape Town thru his daughter Kamar; Swain through daughter Love Smitten; and as broodmare sire of Mountain Cat, and of the GSW dam of Cloud Cover.
