So what I know:
Penn's Sire: Compliance Copy
Jockey Club registered (I have his number), 100% Thoroughbred stallion, and according to the thoroughbred pedigree website, unraced.
Penn's Dam: Czedona** see update
Here's where things get interesting. Remember this funny creeping sock I posted?
Well, I was told the mare was by Alla Czar, who is a sabino colored Dutch Warmblood. Upon some internet
Now, I'd like to try to register Penn with an Oldenburg registry (or maybe Dutch Warmblood?) so that he's eligible for USDF breed awards, and then if I decide to sell him in a few years, I have papers to go with him. His breeder doesn't have Czedona's registration number or info, just that she was an Alla Czar foal and an Oldenburg. Now since Alla Czar was a Dutch Warmblood, and Oldenburg Approved, I'm going to assume Czedona is registered.
More internet
Even more internet
So world, how inappropriate is it for me to contact the owner via Facebook and beg forgiveness but ask about the mare's registration? Even if he can't be registered, I'm dying of curiosity anyway.

Update 8/26/15: So according to USEF, Czedona is not the dam's breed registry name- it's Attractive Nussiancz. Which is good because that horse does appear on the breeder's website!
And Old NA/ISR won't take him because he isn't by an approved stallion... I'm going to see if he can go to inspection to get half papers or something (if they do that). We're going to try the RPSI too since they have something similar. So much work!
I wish all horses were as easy to trace as TBs!
ReplyDeleteLove the Sabino traits. I was going to say that the white in the tail could be a little rabicano coloring showing through. The ticking kind of goes along with that, too. The creeping sock could be Sabino... both can be expressed in the same horse. Color genetics are SO COOL (and I am a huge nerd...).
The stallion threw an incredible red roan rabicano that was a hair's width away from a white brindle pattern.
DeleteI am a huge genetics and color nerd. Can I register him as a bay sabino? Haha
i say go for it!! you never know, they might be thrilled to hear from you and learn about what Penn's up to. (my opinion on the creep factor might be slightly biased since i'm technically a professional internet sleuth so feel free to take this with a grain of salt haha)
ReplyDeleteHa! I've found that more and more people are also internet sleuthers haha
DeleteInternet stalking is a totally legitimate way to procure information about horses. Do it.
ReplyDeleteDo it! I have done plenty of internet stalking on my mare and now my mystery pedigreed freebie. You could always register American WB. Or, if the mare ends up having any KWPN registration you can get Register B papers without inspection. KWPN on the whole is pretty lenient about registration it seems. I have an acquaintance who took her mare to an inspection at age 19 and was able to get her branded Dutch (half TB, half WB as well). So there is always that option!
ReplyDeleteI kind of doubt if the mare has KWPN registration since she's part of the USEF as an Oldenburg- but I'm intrigued by your acquaintance who was able to get an older horse branded as a Dutch Warmblood- that would be fine too. While I don't see them as part of the USDF All-Breed program, I could at least get him registered somewhere. Thanks!
DeleteI called it on Alla Czar!!!
ReplyDeleteI award myself ten points.
