#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Well Passive Love....there doesn't seem to be anything passive about you....This is a discussion forum...If you don't want chatter don't post.  We all have opinions in this world and I for one did NOT insinuate that you were ignorant.   Sorry you were not interested in hearing about my horses and their pedigree and background opinion. We share a common interest here--horses. This is what we do at a BB forum discuss stuff......#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Discovering pedigree is important to some people, and finding a famous horse linked in there even more so. If she wishes to breed her horse, that is her business, regardless of temperment or breeding. It has nothing to do with us and is not our choice. Other than trying to share helpful imformation there is nothing more we can do, and it shouldn't be dragged on any farther than this. #ed_op#BR#ed_cl#This thread is walking a thin line now. #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

I got her for my girls just for riding and the learning/life#ed_op#BR#ed_cl#experience, but seeing her lineage we may look into seeing what she can#ed_op#BR#ed_cl#throw.  A colt as fast as Man O'War would be nice. #ed_op#IMG src="richedit/smileys/Happy/11.gif"#ed_cl##ed_op#BR#ed_cl##ed_op#BR#ed_cl#*day dreams* I could write my book in the loft of my new ranch house#ed_op#BR#ed_cl#overlooking the beautiful green spread, full of Triple Crown winners. #ed_op#IMG src="richedit/smileys/Happy/19.gif"#ed_cl##ed_op#BR#ed_cl##ed_op#BR#ed_cl#yeah.......that sounds like a plan.    #ed_op#IMG src="richedit/smileys/Happy/10.gif"#ed_cl#
