it would be different because we would have some spices and herbs.
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.
Seabiscuit was born in 1933, ran as a two-year old, and retired after his victory at Santa Anita in 1940. So his racing career was about a five year span, minus the time he spent recuperating after a suspensory ligament injury.

If you want a more detailed pedigree Wikipedia has I believe a five generation chart. You can also try Jockey Club, the American Thoroughbred registry. If the horse was born in America they will have a record of it.
I'm sure trusted family members are the only people to know the exact location of Seabiscuit's grave.
'Insist' may not be the correct word. Smith's role was to give his professional opinion and Charles Howard then decided.
Seabiscuit (23rd May 1933 - 17th May 1947) was a champion thoroughbred race horse he was 14 years old when he died.
He was 14 years old.

Several. The mostly-fictional account with Shirley Temple and Barry Fitzgerald and a documentary made of newsreels and old movietone footage. This one is very informative and is a great companion to Laura Hildebrant's bestseller and of course the 2003 movie with Jeff Bridges, Toby McGuire, Chris Cooper and Elizabeth Banks.
The horse and the country were down and out. The Biscuit was all but broken down by mismanagment and mistreatment. America was in the throws of the worst economic depression in it's history. American's could really relate to the little horse with the big jockey. At the time, Seabiscuit was the physical embodiment of the state of the country. It gave many hope that the underdog could and would prevail.
I could find no information about a jockey named Lara, but the author of the book Seabiscuit:An American Legend, on which the movie was based, is Laura Hillenbrand.
The most important characters in the book were:Seabiscuit, Charles Howard, Tom Smith, John 'Red' Pollard, Marcella Howard, Tick Tock McGlaughlin, George Wolfe, War Admiral, Mr. Riddle (War Admiral's owner).
Tic Tock McGlaughlin was the sportscaster, played by William H. Macy. His array of noisemakers never failed to amuse. With television still decades in the future, radio was all-important for information and entertainment.
Seabiscuits biggest rivals are War Admiral the son of the great Man O' War and Ligaroti to name a few.
Seabiscuit the racing legend died at the age of 14 some time after midnight. It is said that his heart burst and caused internal bleeding. So basically he had a heart attack :'( R.I.P seabiscuit and all the other great legends including secretariat and barbaro
