More DescriptionThis a Special Edition. In this book the author shows you the conformation traits you want in a stayer and the faults you want to watch out for. The Author also shows you the Sires that have good conformation traits and the Sires that have conformation faults, if doubled-up in the pedigree can cause soundness problems. Also shown are the female family branches that have fragile bone structure, that you need to watch out for. When breeding for classic horses that could be Triple Crown contenders, you need horses that have good solid legs under them, to withstand the rigors of racing. A horse can have the heart and the will to win, but if he does not have the legs under him, will not be able to win the Triple Crown. The final chapter is an Epilogue of this book and the 3 book series, showing the Triple Crown winners and what made them great.
