Statistical Analysis of the Leading Sires of Young Show Horses
Statistics of the production of a stallion give you a true measure of how well a stallion is reproducing his talent . To better see how the leading stallions measure up we analyzed the stallions production compared to his offspring ’ s success in the show ring .
The resulting tables are for Tennessee Walking Horses shown as 2 , 3 and 4 year olds in 2016 . For a sire to be recognized , he had to have at least 3 different ribbon-winning offspring in these age groups combined . Some stallion listed may only have 2 year olds and some 2 and 3 year olds only .
Open and Amateur classes designated for horses 2 , 3 , or 4 years old were combined in these statistics . Flat shod classes designated for 4 and under were also included .
Each sire is grouped according to their production volume . They are listed in the order of percentage of get successful in the show ring . The columns are as follows ; production group , sire name , total points won by get in 2016 , total ribbons won by get in 2016 , average points per get in 2016 , number of ribbon winning get in 2016 , total registered get born from 10 / 01 / 2011 thru 9 / 30 / 2014 , The percentage of total get successful in the show ring , the number of performance ribbon winning get and the number of flat shod ribbon winning get .
Again , all of these statistics are only for those classes , that a sire ’ s offspring were shown under saddle that were designated as a 4 year old or under class . Also to repeat , No other stallions had 3 or more offspring placing in a four and under class under saddle .
Those stallions designated with a stand at stud at Rising Star Ranch .
