I've been checking this thread for a while but the questions were always answered already so I'm glad I finally got a turn.

Here is a Morgan history question...

Name the person who started the Morgan Horse breed.
Name the original horse that started the breed.
How old did that horse live to be?


I may not be back online for a couple of hours, I have to take my daughter to her riding lesson soon.
I will check back on this thread when I get back.

Oh man, I read that Margurite Henry book too, a looong time ago.

All I remember is the horse's name was Little Bub, was the man's name Justin Morgan? I can't remember if they later called the horse Justin Morgan, or if that was his owner's name. No clue on the age...

I kinda thought the horses name was Figure lol I know it was justin morgan )owner) and I think the horse was 32..but I guess that could be wrong if the horses name isn't even right..-lost-

The horses name was Figure and was later changed to Justin Morgan- one of the horses old owners.

Between the three of you, you got all the answers right!
Justin Morgan was the man, he called his horse Figure and Little Bub was a nickname too.
Figure's name was changed to Justin Morgan after the death of Justin Morgan the man. The horse lived to be 32.
Boscibo answered first but Slleipnir got all 3 answers right so I guess one of you should go next.

[slleipnir]

Go ahead Boscibo, you answered first

Oops, long time since I've read that book, I forgot that his name was Figure!

Name the two horses who raced in a big match race on July, 6th, 1975. It led to the breakdown of one of them.
