Pedigrees: a Practical Approach

Pedigrees: A Practical Approach TOBA Pedigree & Conformation Clinic Saratoga Springs, NY Suzi Shoemaker, Lantern Hill Farm 1 Ordway Pampered Princess Dreaming of Anna Capt. Candyman Can Welcome to Saratoga and TOBA’s pedigree clinic. I’m Suzi Shoemaker, of Lantern Hill Farm in Midway, KY. This morning I’ll discuss current thoroughbred breeding trends and encourage you to use practical horsemanship in your pedigree evaluations for breeding or buying thoroughbreds. I’ve been privileged to make my living breeding and selling racing thoroughbreds since graduating college and moving to KY from upstate NY in 1978. Along the way I’ve bred, raised or sold the likes of Eclipse Champion Dreaming of Anna, as well as Grade 1 winners Capt. Candyman Can, Pampered Princess and Ordway. 2 Hepburn and HER SMILE (G-1) in 2008 I’ve also been fortunate to care for horses for some of the country’s leading race horse breeders, and benefitted from living with their mares and foals and seeing diverse breeding philosophies put to the test. The best recent example of that is Mr. William Backer’s mating of Include to Capote’s daughter Hepburn which produced 2011 Grade 1 Prioress Stakes winner Her Smile. And while money from horses I bred and sold funded the purchase of two farms, I now have the great fortune to race some home-breds and find out first hand how certain traits fall out of pedigrees onto the race track. 3 Variability is decreasing in our gene pools Worldwide dominance of Northern Dancer-Mr. Prospector cross Increased book sizes for small number of Kentucky stallions Few new imports of outcross sires Speaking from that perspective, I’d like to share three observations about today’s pedigrees that might help you succeed at the track or the sales.
