It's of great use to me (and hopefully others) when FJs discuss the breeding side of things as to whether they think a horse has potential to be either a festival horse or stay over a certain distance.
Without that input, I wouldn't have a clue as to what it all means. I know it isn't the be all and end all, and consideration has to be given for other factors outside of breeding but I would like to gain a bit more knowledge about it to help make more informed decisions when betting.
I've added this thread and hope those FJs who have more knowledge on the subject could point out what sires should be noted and which, if any, should be avoided.
I 'm maybe taking a ham fisted approach here but I think it would be handy to have a thread where the info is there to read in one place.
There's no doubt a load more members who know their stuff when comes to this but have tagged a few below to hopefully help with who's got the best horse balls in the game.
