    . . the Big Investment Part 2 This Month’S “Working Lines” Is Going to Take a Closer Look at the Sire Record of the Big Investment

    The Working Lines By Larry Thornton . The Big Investment Part 2 This month’s “Working Lines” is going to take a closer look at the sire record of The Big Investment. Last month we saw that The Big Investment brought a new style to the modern pleasure horse. A style that was based on this wonderful conformation. This month we will look at what a bright future this sire had before his untimely death in 1986 at the age of six. Then we will look at one of the reasons why the influence of The Big Investment may continue through his offspring. The Big Investment sired only 129 foals with 93 of them being born in his 1986 and 1987 foal crops. He sired 74 AQHA performers with 66 point earners that have earned 63ROMs and 27 Superior Awards. This gives him an average of 89% point earners/ performers. This gives him 48.8% ROM from foals produced. He has an average of 56 points per performer. Here is an interesting side note on PHOTO BY PAMELA SNOW The Big Investment’s sire record. The McWhirters have retained 20 daughters or 15% of The Big “...what a bright future this sire had before his un- Investment’s foals as broodmares. timely death in 1986 at the age of six.” Most of these mares have not been shown.

    Cee Bars at the Burnett Ranch

    Working Lines Cee Bars at the Burnett Ranch Chicaro Bill was bred by John Dial. a south Texas horseman and racehorse enthusiast. Dial, a key person in this history, was the man who brought the thoroughbred Chicaro from Louisiana to Texas. He eventually sold Chicaro to the King Ranch and this stallion was the first thoroughbred in what became the King Ranch Thoroughbreds. Chicaro is the broodmare sire of King Ranch bred horses like Middleground, a Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner, and Top Deck, the progenitor of such noted quarter horses as Go Man Go, Moon Deck and his grandsons, Top Moon and Jet Deck.

    Comparison of Head Morphometric Traits Within Five Selected Performance Types of Quarter Horses(Eguus Cabullus) Redacted for Privacy

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Elana Morgana Smith for the degree of Master of Science in Animal Science Presented on October 25, 2002 Title: Comparison of Head Morphometric Traits Within Five Selected Performance Types of Quarter Horses(Eguus cabullus) Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: Thomas F. Savage A study was conducted to investigate if morphometric facial measurements could be utilized to differentiate five categorical performance types of Quarter Horses. The five categories being Western, Halter, English, Reining, and Cutting. The measurements were collected from 323 registered Quarter Horses representing animals who ranged in age from one year to 30 years of age and one of three gender (Stallion, Gelding, and Mare) categories. Eight facial measurements were obtained from two geographic areas, Florida and Oregon. A correlation was performed and resulted in a reduction of the data from eight to five facial measurements, due to the presence of facial symmetry. The reduced data was subsequently analyzed by Multivariate Analysis, using the Wilks Lambda Analysis of Variance. The Main effects, age, gender, and categorical performance type were all significant (p<0.0001 to 0.00 1). Of the two-way interactions only age:gender was not significant (p>0.05) and the three- way interaction age:gender:type was also not significant (p>O.O5) Based upon the not significant (J)>O.O5) Based upon the results, the five original performance categories could be reduced to four (English, Halter, Cutting, and Western/Reining). This indicates that there are a number of similarities in facial measurements between the Western and Reining horses.
