The ratings measure the frequency with which sires' runners achieve three percentile-based earnings thresholds in a year: 1.00 equals average for each index, and the higher the index, the better. The formula is applied in several separate racing jurisdictions (U.S., Canada, Britain/Ireland, France, Germany, and Japan), and the results added together to yield overall totals. In North America (U.S. plus Canada) in 2004, 'A Runners' (top 2% of earners) made around $110,000; 'B Runners' around $75,000; and 'C Runners' around $50,000. For comparative purposes, 'A Runners' are roughly comparable to Listed class winners and above. 'ABC Runners' refers to all three categories combined together, representing the top 8% of earners.
