TC, 40 feet or 4,000 ft. It's immaterial. You keep citing speed itself, and I always originated from the standpoint of the influence of that type blood on every aspect of the QH, whether they needed to run or have speed or not. Doc Bar and Impressive (as non-runners) are perfect examples of my point made in all those other threads. The rest of that thread was to put down my horse and me defending him, which was totally irrelevant to the subject at hand.
