There weren't many, regardless- I had actually just looked at a bunch from that era the other day when the question of NYB's in the BC came up. Most of the pedigrees were so nondescript, any that ended up great was sheer luck. Not so these days.

NY had a lower quality breeding program than Washington state. Also, California, Fla obviously, maybe Maryland and VA too. I still don't think they should count horses sired by stallions standing in KY as NY breds though. |
