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 2017. For a sire to be
recognized, he had to have at least 4 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 2017, total ribbons won by get in 2017, average points per get in 2017, number of ribbon winning get in
2017, total registered get born from 10/01/2012 thru 9/30/2015, 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.
We have added a special section to the far left that shows a stallions success rate for 2 year olds only. Again,
stallions would have to have at least 4 offspring that have won a ribbon in a 2, 3, or 4 year old class in 2017 to
appear on this list.
Those stallions designated with a
last stood or currently stand at stud at Rising Star Ranch.
