Well, I've finally managed to type some interesting information on Secret Silence's page :) It was fun discussing every part of her pedigree up to the 3rd generation (in the 4th and 5th I only named the most important horses), and it gave me an insight on what a great pedigree she actually has! She has an incredible amount of Man 'O War blood in her (well that explains her temper sometimes), mostly through champion stallion Buckpasser. Can't wait to see how she does in the May Racing Carnival!
Today I also decided to put the Dosage Profiles on the horses' pages. The Dosage Index and Centre Of Distribution are very helpful in determining what races to put the horses in, but it can sometimes be misleading. So with the DP, it should be easier to see how much of a sprinter or stayer a horse actually is :) Luckily I have all the DP, DI and CD calculations saved for each horse! I wouldn't want to go through each pedigree (untill 5th generation) again to find all the Chef-de-race stallions in it!
Oh by the way, I've counted all the foals bred from our Thoroughbreds in the second half of 2011 and 2012 so far. The total amount of horses bred was 26! That's a pretty high number, looking at the fact that last year (2011), we had less than half the horses we have now. The only breed bred here is Thoroughbreds (with one exception of a TBxPaint). Hopefully the horses will be as succesful this year too :)
