Wondering about pedigree??

Just wondering your thoughts on this pedigree for Eventing. I know some of the names (Roman, Hyperion. Man O'War, Nasrullah, War Admiral) but not sure about some of the others. The other half is Oldenburg-the stallion is Barricello.

Thanks :)

I personally like the pedigree for an event horse. :)

She has Roman, Man O' War, and Nasrullah (some of the top lines for producing nice sporthorses). If you look on www.sporthorse-breeder.com in their article section they have an article called Thoroughbred Bloodlines Successful in the USA by Dr. Peter Birdsall. It's a really good article and is very informative about some of the influential tb stallions for hunter/jumpers, eventers, etc.

And the Bloodhorse in their Blog Stable--The Five-Cross Files have one called Thoroughbred Bloodlines for Performance Sports. It's pretty interesting too!
