Conformation presentations, live evaluations, and pedigree discussions will be conducted with speakers Dr. Gary Knapp, Dr. Wesley Sutter, Anne Peters, Bill Graves, Cathy Parke, Larry Jones, Donato Lanni, and others. The discussions will cover nicking, dosage, outcrossing and inbreeding. The clinic also will feature tours of Hill ‘n’ Dale Farm, Valkyre Stud and Lexington Equine Surgery and Sports Medicine.
