A horse breeder for the Kentucky Derby recently noticed that one of his female horses gave birth to an offspring, a daughter horse, that had several desirable traits to be a successful racing horse. The offspring had a well-chiseled head on a long neck, high withers, a deep chest, a short back, good depth of hindquarters, a lean body, and long legs. The farmer would like to identify which male horse is the offspring’s father for selective breeding purposes. He asks a local university to run a DNA fingerprint with DNA samples from the mother, offspring, and the four male horses on the farm.
