[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Define upper class (or as you so elegantly put it, upper ass). Are we talking royalty, top 1/2 percenters, family wealth, new money?[/quote] At least three crosses to Northern Dancer or Raise a Native in their Five Gen pedigrees.[/quote] Omg, my mom and I had a jumper who was related to Northern Dancer! We called him Ollie, but his show name was ridiculous. [/quote]That takes me back. My mom insisted on buying me a second horse -- because that's what you do, get a thoroughbred to do serious showing -- never mind that I was perfectly happy with my quarter horse who didn't fit in with the hunt seat set. As I was riding him for the first time, I decided I wanted to call him Alex but she insisted he had to have a name fit for the show ring so his official name was Royal Oak. Years later I realized that my grandfather was actually a self-made man and we weren't old money but my mom sure acted as if we were.[/quote]
