About
the Foundation Morgan Horse
In an effort to preserve the
Morgan Horse's original bloodlines, the term "Foundation
Morgan"
came about.
Foundation Morgan
horses must meet the following criteria:
• The sire line must trace to Justin Morgan (very top
line of pedigree)
• The horse must not have any Saddlebred outcrosses after 1930*
• Offspring are catagorized as 'foundation' as long as both parents
qualify
*No saddlebred after 1930 means no horse foaled after 1930
with a saddlebred
parent. The one exception is the registered offspring of the
saddlebred
mare Ladelle. She had foals, including full siblings, both
before and
after the 1930 date that were registered as Morgans. So, the
decision was
made to allow those from Ladelle as "Foundation".
