"Face of a angel arse like a washerwoman" new to me, but on the button: in fact, there's a story theme there.

Great con concept, but the camera angle did not allow viewers to see what the guy who was analyzing the bay colt's conformation was talking about. A shame, since videos like this can help prospective owners and racing fans alike to understand what a good thoroughbred should look like.

Jefferdaughter Most of American Pharoah’s foals are good lucking TBs, so I’d look at them.

Good conformation points, but the guy said "No foot, No horse", so true. But he showing a filly there with 3 white feet. White feet are known for being more problematic than dark feet. I learned this saying long time ago- " One white foot- buy em, Two white feet- try em, Three white feet- look well about em, Four white feet- could do without em." That's old school, and so true amongst Thoroughbreds.

There is nothing different about white feet. That's a myth.

We do not let "white feet" stop us from purchasing a superior athlete. Secretariat had three white. California Chrome four.

Frankel has four white feet. He didn't do too bad.

I think the only reason thats true is horses with white socks (or pretty coats in general) are normally bred for looks, not health confirmation or any of that. Its a shame, but true. Even if that is not the breeders intentions, it is a long genetic issue now because of long term breeding for these gorgeous horses not worrying about the side effects. Ever wonder why rescue horses are normally gorgeous colors...?

@makaylam947 5 жыл бұрын

basically what im saying is, i dont think the white socks = bad feet. I think it USUALLY = bred for markings not health, LEADING TO bad feet. Much like all horse issues are not just there, they are symptoms of a cause. here, the symptom would be bad feet, the cause would be that for thousands of years horses were bred for color causing most colored horses to have problems.

I am fully aware that Big Red had 3 white feet, and of course there are many exceptional horses with white feet. I guess my comment came off the wrong way, what I was trying to get across is that the Thoroughbreds generally have crappy feet, thin hoof walls, etc. Ask any farrier if you had the option to purchase a TB with 4 black feet vs 4 white, the better choice would be the darker foot. Read the data, talk to many farriers, I know that it's not 100% true for all TB's, but it unfortunately it is the case for most.

thoroughbreds do not have crappy feet, they're fed loads of meal, spend too much time in a stall, shod far too young, how could they not develop crappy feet? Read 'performance hoof, performance horse' by Nic Barker

@DoubleDogDare54 Жыл бұрын

@@howardmckeown7187 In other words, they have crappy feet. The OP has a valid point on hoof pigmentation, though. I know ranch horse breeders who avoid white legged horses for that exact reason- the hoof wall is softer. I can even give you a parallel example - dogs with black toenails have tougher nails than dogs with white feet and non-pigmented nails. A black nail has a tougher horn on it than the softer nail on a dog with white feet. Just how it is. Yeah, when it comes to hooves, give me a bay or chestnut with no bling to him. No hoof, no horse.
