I've listed this article for peer review because…I'm trying to decide if FAC is ready for a horse FA. Any suggestions would be welcome.

I would expect that for FA you'd need to expand the lead to at least two paragraphs.
Do you have a specific citation for the infobox? Lots of very "accurate" stats, like winnings to the nearest dollar...
" considered a nicer-looking individual" perhaps "considered to be a better looking horse."?
Consider converting hands in feet/meters for those of us who aren't horsey.
Don't think you need to link to horse markings twice in the same sentence.
" in purses." this is a little unclear to the non-expert.
You use AQHA before explaining it.
Consider knocking out a quick stub for starting gate if you really believe it deserves an article.
Same for the Rocky Mountain derby.
Order citations numerically - there's a [5][2] there.
$5000 should be $5,000.
"...[4] in 1993.[5]" I'd prefer to see both [4] and [5] at the end of the sentence.
Page ranges need the en-dash (per WP:DASH) - see ref [2] for example, 178-185 should be 178–185.

That's about it for me. All the best. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:33, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reply Thanks muchly, this will help a bunch. The dashes, well, I'm lazy. I usually beg User:Brighterorange to run his script over it right before plan to go to FA (grins). Lazy, but it works. I'll try to take care of the rest of these shortly. I kinda like the idea of a race horse being the first Wikipedia:WikiProject Equine FA. (grins) Ealdgyth - Talk 13:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
