RE: [RC] Russian Horses - heidi
A very wonderful win for John and Heraldic, for sure! But don't
forget that Heraldic still fits the profile for Tevis pedigrees--his
maternal granddam is a Babson/CMK cross, his tail female line is *Urfah
(Davenport, which is CMK) and given the significant influence that
Crabbet horses had on Russian breeding, Heraldic is still over 25%
CMK. To date, there has been no Arabian or part-Arabian winner
of either the Tevis Cup or the Haggin Cup that has a traceable
pedigree that has not been at least 25% CMK--and Heraldic continues
that record! It is amazing how those same horses from Crabbet
Stud come through, even when brought forward by breeders of different
nationalities, and how many of those good old Davenport mares are the
tail female mares in so many successful endurance pedigrees....
