		When using citations, one generally uses both a works cited page or section--also called the bibliography, source list or list of references--in conjunction with parenthetical citations (citations which refer the reader to a particular cited work).
		APA style uses parenthetical citation within the text, listing the author's name, the year the work was made, and the page that the information may be found on.
		Some have questioned the authority assumed or confered by citation, considering it endlessly recursive, the authority of a work resting on its citations, the authority of which in turn rely on their citations.

		Wright purchased Citation's dam, *Hydroplane II, from Lord Derby in the spring of 1941 and transported her to the United States via the Pacific route, which was more time-consuming but a better alternative to having a U-boat send the mare's ship to the bottom of the Atlantic with a torpedo.
		Citation wouldn't be challenged again the rest of the year, winning 15 starts (including a walkover in the Pimlico Special) by a combined 57-3/4 lengths.
		With that, the horse was retired to stud at Calumet.

	Przewalski's wild horse, Domestic horse
		In the wild, this horse is (was?) extremely wary, constantly alert for wolves and man. They can be quite aggressive, and are able to defend themselves with their sharp teeth and hooves.
		Przewalski's horse was previously extinct in the wild, but in the past decade several dozen animals have been reintroduced to protected areas in the steppes of Mongolia.
		Ironically, although called a "wild" horse, the Przewalski's wild horse or takhi has been extinct in the wild for several decades, only surviving through captive breeding.

	CIGAR- America's Horse
		A horse that no one had even heard of as a 3 year old had become thoroughbred racing’s newest legend by winning 16 straight starts and tying the great Citation’s race record.
		He had become America’s horse and had revived the thoroughbred racing industry by instilling new hope in the fans that there could be amazing champions to contend with the memories of horses long ago.
		And while many horses would be retired to stud at the conclusion of such a season, Cigar merely got a break for the winter.

		Citation was blessed with virtues of genuine speed and staying power, along iwht a killer's insticnt that simply willed him past his opponents.
		Injuries kept him off the track for all of 1949 and Warren Wright's dying wish was that Citation become racing's first millionaire which meant that Citation had to stay in training as a six-year old when he probably should have been retired.
		Citation made many horses victims to his speed no matter how famous the other horse is. An example of this would be when Citation beat Armed, Horse of the Year in 1947.

		Horses are an essential form of transportation for the Amish, who generally shun modern conveniences such as electricity, telephones and cars.

		Georgeff chronicles Citation's career, including the story of his greedy owner who wanted to race Citation until he became horse racing's first millionaire, causing him to run until he was six years old, long after a horse of his caliber should have been retired and sent to stud duty.
		Clearly, the horse lost something in that long layoff and was the not the competitor he was as a two- and three-year-old, winning only five of his next 16 races before finally going over the million dollar mark.
		horses cannot be compared against each other who have not faced each other on the track (don't forget former-plater seabiscuit beat one of the finest horses ever in war admiral, and the fastest-horse ever whirlaway also lost in a match race).
