French term or phrase: sur le modele
Any horse lovers out there?

This is a text referring to a horse breeder. Am I correct in thinking that "sur le modele" is something to do with the pedigree?

breed


Explanation:
I think that it's referring to breed, although I admit that this term is not one I've heard widely used before.

I\'d go with \"traits\" rather. My equine dictionary defines it as \"Aspect extérieur d\'un cheval\".
