Designing Speed in the Racehorse by Ken McLean Book PDF Summary

McLean discusses genetic affinities and pedigree patterns, analyzes the pedigrees of important sires and ancestors to isolate elements of speed and stamina, explains what characteristics to look for in a sire, and updates the elite mare list. Breeders will be especially interested in McLean's analysis of the conformation of many of the breed's most illustrious sires and the physical attributes and faults they passed on to their progeny.

With his recommendations at hand, today's Thoroughbred breeder has an edge in the competitive world of racing.
