Tattoo lookup

Hi y’all! I have a TB mare who won’t let me flip her lip. I’m trying to make a shirt for her “official” owner and want to put the tattoo number on it. Can anyone look this up - or tell me how to do so?

Curious about this myself.

I have the official name, but the tattoo is blurred. I want the numbers to play them in the lottery.

I know you can go one way from tattoo to name, but I could not find out a way to go backwards from name to tattoo.

No, there’s no simple name to tattoo lookup. Historically, that would be an excellent resource for racing fraud.

If you have the papers, the tattoo is the registration number with the letter subbed for the first two digits (which represent the foaling year, letter to year chart is at the bottom of the page here. For example, if the registration number is 1512345 the tattoo is S12345.)

Or your can spend time filtering through tattoo lookup with markings until you get to your horse.

Did not know that - thank you! I have a copy and can go from this. Appreciate the insight!
