To allow instant recognition of bloodlines it is very common to use part of a foal's dam and/or sire's registered name. Seabiscuit's sire was Hard Tack. Hard tack was a hard biscuit used by early explorers aboard their ships that were a sea sometimes for months without landing at any port. They were a perfect food for this as they needed no refrigeration and were slow to spoil. So, from Hard Tack came Seabiscuit.
