has anyone else noticed Somethingroyal does not always come up as part of the stastical breakdown in pedigrees when looking at linebreeding, even when she is part of the pedigree 2 times? Does this throw the whole pedigree percentage tabulation out of order?

Are you looking at duplications where she's doubled up through the same horse (IE, a horse inbred to Secretariat)?

If you are looking at a horse that is carrying a duplication of Secretariat, it won't give an accounting of Somethingroyal's breakdown UNLESS she's in the pedigree three times or more.

IOW, The horse needs to be bred like DOMINUS who has Secretariat twice in the pedigree as well as a strain of Sir Gaylord, for you to get a reading on Somethingroyal.

If you have horses that are 'double bred' Secretariat, and are getting a reading on Bold Ruler as well as Secretariat, but are not getting one on Somethingroyal, it's because there is a duplication of Secretariat PLUS an additional strain(s) of Bold Ruler (which is far more common than getting 3 or 4+ strains of Somethingroyal)
