Would it be possible to be able to search for "wild cards" or partial searches? For instance, to search for "lippitt*" and show all horses with either the "Lippitt" prefix or "lippitt" in the name?

Also, has anyone else noticed that the link at the top left of the page says "Back to All Breeed Pedigree"? Wink

Hi Roantree,

Just saw your message about using wildcards. I too am a Morgan affectionado - our Morgans picked us. You have to be a Morgan person to understand that one!. I would love to be able to search by prefix to see all horses bred by any particular farm/individual. I do have a soft spot for Lippitts but my love lies with the Funquest/Jubilee crosses.

Google searches for prefixes come up with some very strange results!

Roantree, that link will take you back to the pedig- .....ooooh, I see what you mean. "All Breeeeeeeed", LOL. I'll let Brad know, tonight when I get home, where his address is. Funny, that.

Hrm, I've sort of found a backdoor way to do it...say you're looking for a horse whose name starts with PIS:
http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/sitemap.php?PIS
or
http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/sitemap.php?LIP

Only seems to work with the first three letters though.
