GETTING STARTED USING INTERNET RESOURCES Online Information The Internet is filled with information for both the prospective and current owner. The better informed you are as an owner, the more success you are likely to have. For prospective owners, the Internet is a useful tool to research pedigrees and race records, as well as check out horses available for sale. AQHA and The Jockey Club Information Systems offer American Quarter Horse pedigree information and complete race records. AQHA also provides dam and sire produce records. This information can be valuable when you are trying to evaluate a potential racing prospect, especially a yearling or two-year-old. If you are planning to buy a horse at auction, most of the major sales companies maintain Web sites where you can find out more about their auction procedures and view a list of horses prior to the sale. For a new owner, the Internet can be used for a number of things. Many racetracks put their condition books (a listing of all races at the track) on their Web site. Your trainer will know the condition book well, but you can browse it to see all the options available for your horse. If you happen to have a stakes-caliber horse, you can also use the Internet to check out stakes races across the country. The American Quarter Horse Racing Journal Online maintains a list of major stakes and MBNA America Challenge races online, as well as links to other racetrack sites.
