Posted - 05 Dec 2010 : 10:01:59 PM Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help me find out more about my gorgeous boy. His passport has no information about breeding in it, though I know he spent a lot of his life in Cornwall, especially around Penzance, and is apparently Arab x Connemara.
The name in his passport is 'Taos' and he is a 1996 14.2 grey, with a distinctive three whorls on his forehead, under his forelock. I have been told that he was a BSJA jumping pony at one point, but don't know how true this is. His physio is into Arabs and has suggested that Taos could be something to do with a stud name and that he may have Polish/Crabbet bloodlines.
If anybody recognises him or knows anything about him I would love to hear from you - I know virtually nothing about his life! Or even if you think you could guess at his breeding, I'm prepared to clutch at straws :)
Hopefully these photos will work... thanks in advance :)

Posted - 19 Feb 2011 : 12:13:26 AM There is no horse called 'Taos' with a BSJA record, but if he jumped on a ticket or this is not his 'real' name (he would have been doing this pre-passports) he wouldn't show up.
I am told he was bred in Cornwall, near Hayle - what is Duchess College? I don't mind grasping at straws, however short

Posted - 17 Feb 2011 : 4:11:26 PM Have you managed to check his out with the BSJA. Any other info on his breeding..if he's Part Bred Arab he may be registered there... Anyone got the 1997 Part bred Arab..register.
Was he born in Cornwall ???, who was at stud down there...??
My mare came from a family at St.Ewes, is that any where near and what about the Duchess Colledge, can you ask that lot about him..

Someone on another forum has suggested that a faint possibility could be to look at the Return of Mares book for 1996 and look at grey colt foals in Cornwall... does anyone know where I could get a copy of this? I don't mind paying for it if someone has one they would like to sell :)
