PedigreeQuery.com Providing Incorrect Info
 

I heard a caller on ATR today say he uses PedigreeQueery.com. There was an article in the Kentucky newspaper about Pyro joining the list of dual qualifiers because his sire AP Indy has been reclassified as a chef-de-race. His dosage is now 3.73, but PedigreeQuery still lists it as 4.14. This means that dosage profiles for all other runners with AP Indy in their pedigrees are incorrect. Regardless of whether or not anyone believes in the dosage theory, it's surprising to me that the folks behind this site wouldn't update their information to provide it correctly to their customers. Makes me wonder what other false info they are providing?

Customers, I get it for free.....

Well then maybe the argument is "you get what you pay for"...

He might want to start by going to the right site. Either way it has never claimed to be any more accurate than the information put in by its' "customers".

the "free" portion of it is an interactive free site - sorta like Wikipedia - they rely on folks close to the horse to update it

EDIT: what Sniper said

Anybody can go on that site and change any info they want. There is always a lot of incorrect info on there, because people just don't update things, add incorrect info etc.

i remember whem someone took to heart the talk that war emblem was gay, and changed his page to reflect it.
i don't remember if they put transsexual, transgender...whatever it was, it was HILARIOUS.

That site also offers pay per view for various data. The reclassification of a horse to chef-de-race would have to be done internally by the site managers. That is not a function that a customer, paying or otherwise, can do.

Well, when you find a free site that offers as much as they do then please let me know.

But we all know who the most famous sire in pedigree.com's history is don't we?

Mikeyonesuit?

i had forgotten that....til now! oh jeez.

So it's like wikipedia?

Yeah, where else can you learn that horses by AP Indy like to run far?
I was stunned by that development.

I find pedigreequery to be an informative, fun, interactive site. I pay the $10 per month fee because it's worth it to me. Sometimes it takes that site some time to update the constant changes in dosage, new reines, etc.
