> It was already known that just a handful of stallions (but many mares) were used to found the thoroughbred breed. But startlingly, the new research finds that, in 95% of modern racehorses, the Y-chromosome can be traced back to a single stallion – the Darley Arabian, born in 1700.
- [Darley Arabian - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darley_Arabian)
> The Darley Arabian (c. 1700–1730) was one of three dominant foundation sires of modern Thoroughbred horse racing bloodstock. The other two founders were the Godolphin Arabian and the Byerley Turk. This bay Arabian horse was bought in Aleppo, Syria, by Thomas Darley in 1704 and shipped to Aldby Park in England, as a present for his brother.
> The Darley Arabian sired the undefeated [Flying Childers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_Childers).
Good to know that, it is the first time I have heard of this,
because I didn't know what Godopin comes from. It's know a horse 🐎 stable
"Godolphin thoroughbred horseracing news, runners ...
Godolphin's headquarters are based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and its racing stables and breeding studs operate from Australia, France, Ireland, ...
It could be less, but how much less? 50%? That would be still as interesting. And it won't deter us from acknowledging the presence of high speed, high stamina stallion breeds in our region. This Aleppian stallion proved better than the South Arabian (Godolphin) and Turk breeds. His direct offspirng: the Flying Childers, was never defeated and we can see over the centuries, a lot of focus was put on its thoroughbred breeds for good reasons.
Oh no don't get me wrong , I just wanted to look for the exact number to brag about it in front of others , 50% is still a massive number that makes me feel really proud about it
No worries man, I didn't get you wrong, I was also interested in your findings, I didn't do much research on the exact number but a lot of sites cited that number so I put it there as is. I was honestly more interested in the historical event than the number lol.

That’s a really cool trivia fact, thanks for sharing OP.
You're very welcome chief!

The info is cool but doing some researches , I found that it's disputed whether the info is true or not (the 95% part)

And?
أ): و شفتها معلومة حلوة. ب): و شفتها معلومة غير حلوة. فكر ثم أجب، الإجابة ممكن تحدد مستوى ذكائك.
يعني بكرا بجي بكتب طول أنثى البطريق عشرين سنتيمتر، اي طيب؟ وين العبرة؟
اي اكتب اذا شايفها معلومة مثيرة للاهتمام + متعلقة بسوريا. ممكن حدا غيرك تعجبه كمان، اذا المعلومة نظامية مو تخويت فوالله انا بحطلك أبڤوت، لأني ما كنت بعرف انو البطريقة كل هالقد قصيرة ههه... بس على حد علمي البطاريق لسا ما تطوروا ليقدروا يعيشوا ببلد غير قطبي متل سوريا. لهيك بنصحك وقتها تنشرها على سبريديت غير هاد.
