Most Prolific Breeding Combination

Postby jagger » Sun Mar 26, 2006 9:09 pm

What combination of sire lines has been the most productive in terms of total GSWers?

Judging from the amount of Mr. P and Northern Dancer crosses there are, it would seem that cross would be right up there.

Per Goldmine, there are 575 Graded Stakes winners with that cross.

Mr. P.

BJ,

Actually, I think if you switch Mr. P and ND around, there are another 341 for a total of 916. Right?

Probably :wink: . It exhausted me watching it calculate one way on the "anywhere in the pedigree" search! :lol:

Now, it probably is a lot less when tweaked to calculate only from the sireline to the broodmare sireline, (or reversed) as in Werk Nicks.

They are in Australia, so if you purchase on U.S. time, you will have to wait until their time to get the "unlock code". Or...you can try the Free Demo (without the G1 statistics). I find that "some" of the functions, i.e., "VGS" don't work consistently. But perhaps they've fixed that with the upgrade, which I've yet to download.
