Ex race horse history?
I recently acquired an old ex race horse on loan from on old friend. I know a little bit about his history but not much. I know that his racing name was go dancer and that he won 10 races. I am in Australia but i haven’t been able to find records on any Australian thoroughbred directories. The only other thing i know about him is that he is coming up to 20. I am in VIC and his brand is a H with a ring around it, but no one i have talked to seems to know who owned this brand . If anyone out there knows anything about him or his brand it would be appreciated. Thx guys
Have you tried speaking to someone at the Australian Jockey Club? They will have records of all the Thoroughbreds born in the country and that will help you to trace his race record and any siblings.
If you know his racing name you could try a site like www.pedigreequery.com as they might have a listing for him.
