Trying to trace an old horse , approx 23 years old , american standardbred mare , bright bay 16.2hh .

Cannot for the life of me remember horses name or sires name , but believ one or both contain something like riverbank turbo , turbo riverbank ?????? arrrggh cant think .

Anyone know of anyone in Scotland area who breeds american standardbreds ?? as I spoke to a lady who bred them some years ago and she knew of this horse .


thanks guys xxx
 
There is a a website www.standardbred.org/ which I found by Googling "standardbred register uk". You can do a pedigree search, but I think you have to sign up for it. Its also possible that Riverbank or Turbo are prefix's so it may be worth googling them too. There used to be a UK Harness Racing website too & they may be able to help you.
I have traced my two Standies, but we live in NZ & they are all freeze marked on their necks, this means they can all be traced but many people think it looks ugly.
Good luck in your search!
 
Hi
STAGBI (standardbred version of Wetherby's in the UK) should be able to help but you do have to register. bhrc.org.uk is the harness racing site but it doesn't have pedigrees.
There is a US site (http://www.allbreedpedigree.com) and also a Swedish site (http://www.sukuposti.net) which have free info and may be of more use (there is a link for English translation on the Swedish site).

Hope that helps

Hi,

I know this horse, Riverbank Turbo or Cleo as I called her. She came from Riverbank stables in Stirling and is by Armbro Mystic. I owned her from age 4 and sold her 12 years ago when she was 11 or 12 so she would be 23 or 24 now.

I was just thinking about her the other night, do you own her now? How is she getting on?
