Dainty Bit (~192?) by *Diapason - need her dam

Postby Pan Zareta » Sat Jul 09, 2005 4:57 pm

Lucy, could you check Dainty Bit by *Diapason in that priceless vintage APR of yours, please? Apparently she didn't have any reg. produce 1940 or after, as she's not in my APR. I have her in 2nd supplement to ASB XVII, and in BRIS's full progeny report for Tetros - but neither show her dam.
Known foals:
1937bf Tet's Question by Tetros
1938bf Question Sis by Tetros
1939bf Ruby Cardenas by Dr. Cardenas

TIA!

1932 mare by Diapason x Ballygihen by Handsel. :) I added her & her foals - looks like she only had the three you mentioned.

Check out the pedigree of her grand-foal Tettie Bell - is this the same breeder as the last time? :shock:

THANK YOU!

You mean the same breeder as Jim T., the most i/b horse EVER - the one for whom there really should be a FAINTING smiley? :lol: No, I don't think the Tetros i/b's (there was also Grey Goslin 1940grg x Tetros - Miss Tetros by Tetros) were Timms' doing. More likely Poe or one of the other Sweetwater breeders. This was - lamentably - not all that uncommon to the time and esp. to the place. Unlike breeders who were doing the same thing elsewhere, many of the Texans were racing their i/b's, but not breeding them. Grey Goslin raced 8 yrs & had 100 starts.
