Unfortunately, it may be impossible to track. I found this on another site:
“He sired a number of offspring, most of them for Lord Grosvenor, and most of them dating from the late 1760s to the early 1770s. Although he had no lasting influence on bloodstock breeding, his son Euryalus (ch c 1767) won four Royal Plates and defeated such horses as Conductor (ch c 1767 Matchem) and Trentham (br c 1766 Gower’s Sweepstakes). Under the name of the Eaton Barb he sired one unnamed filly. None of his offspring have descendants recorded in the General Stud Book.”

But
if there was one marked like him, the chances are there were others and there are just no recorded portraits (that I have found).

Yeah, I started looking too :frowning:

They aren’t Paints - that’s a breed

So, Thoroughbred is a breed. Paint is a breed.

How can a horse be registered both Jockey Club and APHA?

Yes, but the horses we’re talking about here aren’t paints or Paints, they are TBs that happen to have some pinto coloring :slight_smile:

The APHA now requires one APHA parent to be registered as such, so no new ones can.

However, here ARE grandfathered JC TBs who are also APHA though. The APHA is largely about color, with a restriction on pedigree (ie QH, Paint, TB, that’s it). For example, Painting Freedom is both JC and APHA registered.

If you are interested in the origins of Coloured TBs and the coloured Tbs and part breds that are racing this year and the coloured stallions at stud and the foals well come and join are Facebook page.

Thanks JB & Angrove!

Sorry guys for the mistake, I read the artical again and the Thoroughbred stallion they mentioned was Master Magpie not birdcatcher.
