Breeding The Racehorse
Tesio's own book on breeding Thoroughbreds! Federico Tesio will undoubtedly be remembered as the greatest Thoroughbred breeder of the 20th century. He never had a large number of mares in his stud at any given time, did not spend a great deal of money on bloodstock and sold most of the best horses he bred. Yet the blood of the horses he bred is found in about 75% of today's Thoroughbreds. Breeding the Racehorse will give you an insight into Tesio's ideas and theories, straight from Tesio himself. He discusses the hybrid nature of the Thoroughbred, the independence of inherited characteristics, breeding for speed, endurance, heredity in the direct line, plus much more.
