This might shake things up a bit! I wonder which prominent stallions carry this gene and if breeders will get their horses tested? https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing ... racehorses

I wish they would have named and shamed LOL I want to know who is out there passing along this gene.

If it also associated with speed and precocity, don't expect much of a change.
