  • Svensk Stuteribok För Fullblod (Svsf)
    SVENSK STUTERIBOK FÖR FULLBLOD (SvSF) BAND 29 Utarbetad av Monica Wolf Utgiven av SVENSK GALOPP ISSN 0283-6904 Scandinavian Racing Bureau AB, Djursholm, 2011 Mångfaldigande och bokbinderi Lasertryk A/S, Århus, Danmark Förord Den 29:e upplagan av Svensk Stuteribok för fullblod är den tredje som upprättats i Svensk Galopps datasystem. 2007 infördes hingsttypen ”Ej avelsvärderad hingst” och hingstypen ”Egen hingst” tas bort enligt EU:s direktiv då restriktioner för hingstar inte längre får finnas. Från 2002 DNA-typas fölen i samband med fölregistreringen. Från samma år utfärdas även pass, utförda enligt EU:s direktiv, till de registrerade fölen. 2004 bytte Svenska Galoppförbundet namn till Svensk Galopp. Uppläggningen av Svensk Stuteribok följer internationella bestämmelser. I stuteriboken får bara införas engelska fullblod. Så kallade B-registrerade fullblodshästar redovisas därför i en särskild publikation. Den första stuteriboken i Sverige utkom 1872 med titeln ”Nordiska Stuteriboken” på Nordiska Jockeyklubbens förlag. Redaktör var den kände hippologen Carl Gustaf Wrangel. Band 29 omfattar åren 2005-2009. Boken grundar sig på hingsthållarnas insända språngrul- lor med uppgifter om betäckningar samt följande års rapporter om betäckningsresultat. Registreringarna bygger dessutom på stoägarnas uppgifter om fölning samt språngsedel, sig- nalementsbeskrivning och blod-/DNA-typning. Har sto betäckts med mer än en hingst sker faderskapsprövning på avkomman. Faderskapet avgörs genom blodprov/DNA-typning och anges i stuteriboken vid stoet. Har
