FOUNDATION SIRES
Breed histories of the Thoroughbred often focus on the three foundation sires -- the Byerley Turk, Darley Arabian, and Godolphin Arabian-- who were brought to England in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries and crossed on English and imported mares.While it's true that all modern Thoroughbreds descend in tail-male line to one of these stallions, upwards of 200 stallions FAMILY NUMBERS EXPLAINED The Family Numbers commonly used to designate the various Thoroughbred female families were popularized by Bruce Lowe, an Australian pedigree researcher at the end of the nineteenth century.
