In the past when one bought a race horse, you were buying based on chance. It was luck if your horse became a winner. Now, however, everything is changing. DNA testing is making it easier to make sure you can buy a winner. Steven Tammariello, associate professor of biological sciences, preforms genetic testing of horses. All he has to do is take a small amount of DNA from the horse, a strand of hair, and he can take all of the information he needs. Genetic testing is said to be the future of the horse breeding industry. Why take your chances when you can pretty much guarantee that your horse can be a winner.
