| Not the right sire!
Breeder's Trotting Stud Book, 1881, Vol. I, p. 57 : GAMBETTA, ATR.#1172.; SHARK: said to be a son of AMERICAN ECLIPSE! Could be possible,based on age, but all notes to WELLING MARE ends only SHARK without parents! Breeders asked in WALLACE's books, but the answers are inconclusive, unsatisfactory .
SHARK (thor), *1805 by QUICKSILVER can NOT be the sire of WELLING MARE! She get a foal in 1861 !!! (MAZEPPA, ATR. #15251, *1861 by HAMBLETONIAN ATR. #10) and other foals around this time ...
