  • TRUENICKS STALLION AFFINITY REPORT FOR: Redoute's Choice (AUS) All Broodmare Sires
    TRUENICKS STALLION AFFINITY REPORT Redoute's Choice (AUS) TRUENICKS STALLION AFFINITY REPORT FOR: Redoute's Choice (AUS) All Broodmare Sires Copyright © 2009 The Jockey Club Information Systems, Inc. Page 1 of 3 TRUENICKS STALLION AFFINITY REPORT Redoute's Choice (AUS) TrueNicks: AN EXPLANATION Nicks in History Compatibility of stallions from one male line with mares from other sire lines has shaped the breed since the Eclipse/Herod cross of the late 18th century. Called nicks, these successful crosses–Hermit/Stockwell, Lexington/Glencoe, Bend Or/Macaroni, Phalaris/Chaucer–have made a profound impact on the development of the Thoroughbred. In the modern era, the prolific Mr. Prospector/Northern Dancer cross has produced outstanding racehorses and sires such as Kingmambo, Distorted Humor, Elusive Quality, Thunder Gulch, and Grand Slam. Fast-Forward to the 21st Century Computers have now made it possible to measure and rate nicks, which has given rise to a commercial market for such statistics. Though popular, the nick ratings offered to the public to date have been compromised by incomplete data. This inevitably yields results based on hypothetical rather than real opportunity. This statistical gap was the impetus behind the development of TrueNicks. A Statistically Valid Approach Unlike other ratings that are calculated on the basis of hypothetical opportunity among a limited group of horses, the TrueNicks rating utilizes the database of The Jockey Club – the world’s most complete records of Thoroughbreds and their performance — to produce a sophisticated rating based on all foals for a given cross. The Statistics A TrueNicks rating is derived from two statistical elements: a Sire Improvement Index (SII) and a Broodmare Sire Improvement Index (BSII).

We on the National Hunt Committee strive to continue improving the jumps breed in Britain, and we intend to tackle this challenge in two ways. Firstly, we will seek to continue increasing the number of races for fillies and mares, ensuring that there is a sufficient black type programme for National Hunt racemares. This should reflect the Flat programme for fillies in creating opportunities to test fillies at all levels, thereby recognising and rewarding the best. Our second challenge is to increase the number and quality of British-based National Hunt stallions. This is a long-term project which relies heavily on the quality of broodmares visiting younger stallions as well as the more established, thus helping to support and promote them throughout their stud career. I have a belief that mares which have good pedigrees and were black type performers themselves have the best chance of success as broodmares, and undoubtedly the best chance of getting a top quality horse is to use a mare that produced a top horse and send her to a top stallion.
