ATLANTIC . H, PERCHERON,
| definitely NOT TB horse. Thompson’s Percherons….. now we have the Percheron stallion ATLANTIC, stood by and probably owned by Claude Thompson.
the problem arises that it seems that the grey TB stallion Atlantic does not appear to have existed. No foaling date has been found for this grey ‘TB’ stallion. Neither Casino (foaled 1881) nor Lady Grace (foaled 1881), is recorded to have had a grey colt named Atlantic. Going back to “Remember” in the list of Thompson’s Percherons….. now we have the Percheron stallion ATLANTIC, stood by and probably owned by Claude Thompson. And the Percheron mare Lady Grace. And the Percheron stallion Casino. ALL definitely NOT TB horses, unless you want to go by the old longstanding researcher’s joke that “TB stands for ‘too big’ because of draft breeding, and not for Thoroughbred.
