Breeding Stock Registry*:
Horses within this registry category lack the
discernable Appaloosa coat pattern
and currently are ineligible for entry into the Open Show Point Program and
are not showcased for promotional purposes.
Stallion less than an F-4 rank and geldings are ineligible for recognition in
this category.
All horses within the Breeding Stock Registry (which may include Foundation
Registry
Appaloosas) contain a "B" or "BN" within the registration number prefix.
* The ICAA recognizes the value of "solid-patterned" stock in Appaloosa
breeding programs.
The rules of this category may or may not be altered as the evolving Lp-gene
study results
become known and understood. Until such time, the stance regarding not
recognizing
stallions of less than 4-generations of Appaloosa/Appaloosa breeding remains
that a solid-patterned "F-4" stallion passes on a good pedigree and that
pedigree in itself
is a worthy attribute toward the goal of the eight-generation purebred
blood-breed Appaloosa.
