Nicks have become an integral part of the decision-making process in the mating and purchasing of thoroughbreds. Most breeders recognise that an affinity or compatibility can exist between two thoroughbred sire lines, such that, when crossed, those lines yielded a greater proportion of superior runners than when either one of them are crossed with any other sire lines. Great breeders, from Federico Tesio to present-day breeders around the world have relied on observed nicks to help guide their breeding plans and buying decisions. Over 70% of ALL Stakes Winners are “A” Rated Nicks In order to identify nicks in a systematic way, the software database we use developed an evaluation method based on sire-line analysis. Ongoing studies by researchers show that approximately 25% of the Thoroughbred population is the product of highly successful nicks ("A" rated nicks) while over 70% of stakes winners come from these "A" rated nicks! Statistics: There are approximately 20,000 live foals born each year – 25% (5,000) are A Rated whilst 75% (15,000) are rated below. There are 541 Stakes Races in Australia this racing season. 70% (379) will be won from the 5,000 A rated foals born (7.6%) 30% (162) will be won from the 15,000 foals in the lower rated group (1.08%). For a practical businessperson seeking a return on money invested, it makes no sense to ignore statistically unfavorable odds. Buying a superior racehorse is already a difficult enough proposition. The Rating systems we use allow us to see into the future by looking into the past and thereby to avoid those mating patterns that have failed. The Nick Rating enables us to avoid crosses that have had little or no success in the past. At the same time, it enables us to identify and thus duplicate successful sire-line crosses, dramatically increasing the chances of success. Over the years evaluating Nicks have proven to be an invaluable tool in the stallion selection process when identifying yearlings for purchase. Dean Watt, Managing Director of Dynamic Syndications has enjoyed great success as a result of utilising such information. For example: SAVABEEL, POLAR SUCCESS, HE’S NO PIE EATER, ECONSUL, DE BEERS, BRADBURY’S LUCK, TENANT’S TIARA and REWARD FOR EFFORT were all superior racehorses who had superior pedigree ratings. ECONSUL A+ + 13,862% SAVABEEL A+ + 9,325% DEBEERS A+ + 4,270% POLAR SUCCESS A+ + 2,240% REWARD FOR EFFORT A+ 1,175% BRADBURY'S LUCK A 485% TENANT'S TIARA A 238% HE'S NO PIE EATER A 161% Further afield, in 2008 the Top 5 Racehorses in the world had the following ratings: 1 CURLIN A+ 1,375% 2 NEW APPROACH A+ 1,472% 3 RAVEN'S PASS A+ + 5,961% 4 DUKE OF MARMALADE A 409% 5 HENRYTHENAVIGATOR A+ + 1,531% Then to further support the theories, in 2008 there was 67 Group 1 races run in Australia. These races were won by 48 individual horses. When these 48 individuals’ pedigrees were analysed it showed: 35 / 48 Rated A or above = 73% of Individual Group 1 Winners Rates A or above Affinity between sire lines was long ago observed by the world’s best thoroughbred breeders. Today through modern technologies we are able to quantify what was once only a subjective judgment based on the observations of a relatively small equine population. Ratings are essentially the objective measurement of success, or lack therefore, of sire- line crosses. Success is quantified by being the winners of stakes races with a prizemoney of at least $50,000. Through software databases, containing the pedigrees of all such winners since 1977 (over 30,000 winners), we are able to more easily identify what sire- line crosses have succeeded in producing stakes winners and compare those numbers with the stakes winning population on the whole. Often a sire line may appear to be successful with a particular broodmare sire line. However, if the level of success is no better than that sire line’s success with the entire population, then there is not a true nick. In order to understand the ratings for easy use, a letter-grade scale was developed. As in the scholastic setting, the scales ranges from A through F with A+ and A++ possible to be achieved in some select instances. The percentages shown in the table below are the deviation from the norm that has been observed by that sire line cross in question. On this scale -15% to +15% (C) is considered average, meaning that the sire-line cross has yielded results that are statistically no better and no worse than what would be expected with the entire population.
