[Genome] Problems Accessing Horse Sequnce Data

Hi Glenn,

The "DNA" link at the top of the page should get you the region you are 
looking for.  Simply go to your region of interest in the horse genome 
browser and click the link.  You should see a page with several options 
for DNA retrieval and formatting, including boxes for adding extra bases 
upstream and downstream of the region you are currently viewing.

More information on this feature is located in our User's Guide, here:

I hope this solves the problem.  If you have further questions, please 
feel free to contact us again by writing to this list.
