Horses and the internet

Trying to find reliable horse information on the internet can be both time-consuming and not very fruitful. It's also downright scary if you're looking up symptoms or health issues. (Which I mostly avoid dong because, well, I'm really enough of a worry-wort as it is.)

Sometimes you can find fun stuff, though, like your horse's pedigree online.

Oddly enough (or maybe not), if you go back a bit on both Lena's and Bar's pedigrees, you find Man O'War.

I actually don't care much about what genetics make up my two horses. Their personalities mean more to me than the bloodlines they came from, though I am glad they both inherited good confirmation.

    Oh yeah, it looks like he's also descended from Diabolo, which I think is the horse I had the kiddie drawing we'd always do in the Kentucky Derby. (We "bet" by putting in a quarter and drawing numbers out of a hat...still do if we're with family on that day.)

Hi, there.

Thanks for reading and commenting. Unfortunately, I've had some comment spam show up, so I've enabled some security measures to keep that from happening in the future.
