Temperament and health problem trends among certain families
This has been an interesting topic I notice when it comes to certain families of racehorses. What are some things you notice about health problems and temperament in certain genetic families of horses.
Nasrullash, Nashua, Man O' War, Hard Tack, War Admiral and Seabiscuit had nasty tempers that were a useful tool yet awful weapon.
Dr. Fager, TaWee, and Aspridita had stomach issues when the weather heated up.
Seattle Slew, Landaluce, and Swale either suffered from colitis or heart defect.
Alydar and Easy Goer hated fighting in a contest for the lead coming into the stretch.
Native Dancer, Natalma, and Northern Dancer were plagued with hoof and leg problems.
Bleinhem and Whirlaway were crazy and unpredictable as all get out.
Those were some I noticed. What are some that you can think of?
