Ken McLean's best book on breeding Thoroughbreds
Ken McLean is perhaps the premiere pedigree analyst of his generation. His previous books,
Quest for a Classic Winner and Tesio: Master of Matings are highly sought after by serious breeders. Today, you may be lucky to find a copy at an antiquarian bookshop, but they usually command top dollar.
In his latest work, Genetic Heritage, McLean concentrates on how dominant and recessive genes affect Thoroughbred
Matings. He discusses great ancestors which shaped the Thoroughbred breed, factors in speed and stamina, hereditability of heart size "The X factor," purchasing breeding stock from public auction, breeding for the racetrack, successful inbreeding, nicking, the Maktoum & Niarchos empires, the influence of Asian markets and the significant breeders of the 20th century.
If you have read Ken McLean’s previous titles you will surely want Genetic Heritage. And if you are new to his theories, you will not want to miss this opportunity to study one of the industry’s most sought-after references. And, as with McLean’s previous titles, availability is very limited. Order your copy before they are gone - forever.
