Revolution leads the new Danish Warmblood performance index

marts 7. 2023

The Danish breed society Danish Warmblood has recently introduced a new performance index with the aim of breeding horses with the highest level of performance. The index gives you an understanding of the stallion’s ability to pass on its performance to its offspring and can be used by breeders as a tool when selecting the right stallion for one’s mare.

The index now includes the genetic correlations, which gives a more accurate picture of the horse's hereditary ability in performance. Positive genetic correlations normally translate into good performance under the right circumstances.

The index shows how well the offspring will manage in the sport compared to other stallions. A high index is equivalent to a good ability to pass on performance.

At Helgstrand we do our utmost to select the best stallions for our stallion collection and every year we make necessary changes with the aim of always offering the best selection. In top of the new index of Danish Warmblood, we find several current or former Helgstrand stallions lead by Revolution! In the lead with an index of 160 as a result of 110 offspring being analyzed and with an 0.9 certainty. This ranks Revolution among the best 2.5% stallions in Danish Warmblood.
