Pedigree Query

Sorry for the late reply. He will be offered as a two year old in training.

I have a yearling colt from his first crop out of a Special Rate mare, Perfect Pepper, so it is the cross you are looking for. Good size, bone and overall very correct. Very good mind and very athletic. Have another mare going to him this year, and the Special Rate mare will return to him next year.

Pedigree appears weak on the bottom. Mandys Gold obviously stands out, and he is by a half sister, but beyond that the family has not produced a whole lot of black type. Loved DIxie Union. Good luck.

Has anyone seen any of his foals? Thoughts on how they look?

It was reported that it was a right ankle injury (which x-rays proved negative) or an old abscess acting up from being re-shod.

Lasix (Salix) has proven to be a great masker. I live in the present, and the only way you achieve a level playing field is to remove all drugs from competition. In this way comprehensive testing will be much more reliable. Nothing will ever be 100%, but all we are doing today is dancing around the ...

So as the drugs get more sophisticated it is a cleaner environment? You can't have it both ways. The sport either has to be drug free during competition or you will have no way to ever police it. It was dirtier in the past in your opinion because all drugs were illegal?? Technology has simply create...

If any thoroughbred owner does not believe Clenbuterol is being misused they either are in deep denial, don't want to know, or simply want that edge. The 1% that a poster continues to claim are dirty, are dragging in a far greater percentage through this denial, blind eye, or not wanting to be at a ...

I think it will be interesting to review 4 years from now.

Not all American breeders breed for the dirt.

I have two Tinners Way's fillies for sale and a 3 year old gelding. We have two left to get to the track, one is a yearling who is Tinners last foal. The fillies both had minor training injuries and are now 100% sound. Solid pedigrees on them both. Please PM for additional information and photos.

Check your feed label to see if organic iodine has been reintroduced in the feed. If not, use it as a supplement with your mares. Have not had a case of Roto in over 6 years. Before learning about this even with plasma was having at least a case a year. It was taken out feed since horses were being ...

I happen to disagree. I think slots were and are the worst thing that could have happened to racing. Patrick is right about the government needing money and it a great place to collect tax, but the horsemen and the tracks that have prostituted themselves so selfishly for slots are just as bad. The d...

IMO, Ratherrapid is dead on. ADW's, track controlled, or a state platform controlled by participating tracks that is fair to the tracks and horsemen will help develop handle and fan base. Bring fans, drive handle, and help breed programs. And if everyone in the food chain is honest, it does not expa...

The vast majority of the revenue goes to taxes, the tracks, and then the horsemen- purses, breeding programs, etc. Fundamentally the tracks were very smart to put there hands up and offer their venues as a great place for slot machines. The horsemen certainly deserve a piece of the action, as the ve...

The fatal flaw is that you have to rely on the product, and promote the product, not a subsidy. In Texas we have done nothing to promote real purse fuelers- expanded OTB, ADW. Leadership has been blinded by the hope of slots. If you have slots, you better realize that the revenue-at least 90%- will ...
