Thoroughbred breeding

Thoroughbred breeding involves the careful selection of horses to produce young foals suited for racing and competition. The breeding process focuses on lineage, with successful racehorses often selected as parents to enhance desirable traits, such as speed, stamina, and temperament. Stallions (male horses) are chosen based on their performance and genetics, while mares (female horses) are selected for their racing history and reproductive potential. The goal is to create offspring that can excel in races, ultimately contributing to the horse racing industry and maintaining the integrity of the Thoroughbred breed.
