We bought her off a man named John Oswald and he did not know too much about it. Well i have searched countless times over the internet and the brand is supposedly east asian calligraphy or a cinese symbol meaning "gold". I can provide a picture but any information regarding it could help me. The reason i want to find out about the brand is so i can see maybe where she came from or who bred her, if she raced, etc. Please any help is appreciated no info. will go unnoticed! :D

I agree with the first post about them being pretty much untraceable unless she was from a large breeding farm.
What you can also do is send a picture of the brand to the jockey club, racetracks or other TB registries and ask if they know anything about it. You can also post it on online racing forums- some one may have an insight to it.

I've dealt with a mare kind of similar to yours. I had to ride her all throughout the winter when she was super fresh and excited all the time! She would go into a near gallop right there in the arena when I asked her to canter (it felt like the matrix when turning a corner ( : ) so I have some good experience. Here are some things you can do: Sit really deep. Put all your weight into your tail bone and even lean back a little. This almost keeps the horse from going fats because it's so much more of an effort to go faster. I read in the additional details that you said she's very responsive to voice commands. So if she is, then another thing you can do is ask her to whoa. But make sure you ask it right it the right tone of voice, otherwise it will just make her more upset. Don't say it rushed or anything, even if you are panicking. (ex. whoa! whoa! whoa! whoa! WHOA!) (instead: whoooooaaaaa). This should make her calmer. Good luck!

If your horse raced in the United States you can tell very easily.
Flip up her upper lip and see if there is a tattoo on it.
In order to race in the states all horses MUST have a lip tattoo.
It is the requirements of the Jockey Club to race.
If you have the horses papers the lip tattoo will be one letter and then numbers.
The letter will designate the year the horse was foaled and the number will be the horses JC registration number.
From a lip tattoo you can call Jockey Club and have them trace the horses papers and find out where she was foaled and all about her history.
Brands are very hard to trace and mean nothing on the race track.

A lot of people brand their animals such as horses and cattle. But, it's rather difficult to trace a brand now since so many people use them and they don't advertise the brands on the market with information. I know the branding started back in the older days when there were cattle drives and such to help keep the cattle/horses identified just in case they would run into another herd on their way to their destination.
The best way you could track her is by her papers, unless she doesn't have papers on her. Her papers should show who has owned her and her bloodlines.
Good luck on your search though!
