The filly I raised from birth 1970 has so many of these horses in her pedigree ( sired by Alkali Junior; out of the spirited bay mare of unknown origins that my father bought in 1969 "Rusty" supposedly age 6yrs but she was said to have had two foals already. Had a scar on her back from where a stallion bit her. Would LOVE to know where she came from/history). Fun to learn about QH background. Oh, and we were told Arthur Godfrey had owned the stud at one time. Any leads appreciated.

The only registered AQHA horse I had that I can remember the name of was , "Kings Rodeo Star" , had a registered sorrel mare but don't remember her name , my current horses are grade far as I'm aware.

Ive thought about this the speaker mentions that its unlikey that steel dust sired as many foals as people claim...later u hear stories about how much effort people put into moving these horses is why i question just how often there were false claims of linage.

What a shame that, at a time when 19th century primary source records are literally at our fingertips, they're still serving up the same old mid-20th cent. QH mythology.

PZinTX please explain?

[@chomama1628]

You have modern access to records but not the personal stories which gives you a full rich history of the quarter horse.

Aqha needs to care more about the ranch.
