[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 380547, member: 4353"] Aero, you must remember the norm then was frame 1 and 2, not frame 6 cattle. There was no taller cattle back then in the hereford breed, the tallest would have been frame 4 and 5 and they were those that got "left behind" So there wasn't a huge gene pool to select the taller genetics from to go from ponies to racehorses and they did it in about 13 years! That sound too good to be true to me. In that same era headshapes and eyesets also changed from the traditional. [/QUOTE]
