FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

SWANA Launches First Online Marebook

Socorro, New Mexico, April 23, 2010 – SWANA has unveiled a beta version of the first online Marebook among North American warmblood registries.

The Online Marebook lists every mare in SWANA’s North American Marebook, past and present, from Premium B to Elite mares. Each mare listing includes the mare’s four-generation pedigree, current status, owner contact information, and a list of her known offspring. This is a great tool for anyone looking to learn more about mare lines, and is free for anyone to explore – it’s not limited to SWANA members only.

This project is currently in its infancy, and is considered a “beta” version. As the project develops, photographs of the mares will be available, and people will be able to “click through” horses in the mares’ pedigrees as well as their offspring, to learn more information about those horses, their pedigrees, and their accomplishments as well.
