About the data.
How every number is made.
Bloodline AU turns Australian thoroughbred results into season-long sire, jockey and trainer statistics. This page explains what is collected, what each measure means and where the current limitations sit.
Racing season1 August–31 July
Season tables retain every result successfully collected during the season.

01
Data collection and storage
The importer requests completed Australian gallops meetings from FormFav. For each accepted race, it stores the winning horse, sire, dam, broodmare sire, track, state or territory, distance, race class, trainer and jockey when those fields are supplied.
Each race uses a stable key made from its date, track and race number. A later import updates that record rather than adding a duplicate. The most recent seven days remain visible in the detailed results table, while all successfully stored winners continue contributing to the season rankings.
Only official Australian jurisdictions—ACT, NSW, NT, QLD, SA, TAS, VIC and WA—are included. If the provider omits a jurisdiction, the site attempts to infer it from the racecourse. Unresolved locations are excluded.
02
Winners and sire rankings
Season wins
One stored winning result contributes one win to the horse's sire. A horse can contribute more than once by winning multiple races.
Unique winners
Each different winning horse is counted once for its sire, regardless of how many races that horse wins.
Top 10 sires
Sires are ordered by total stored season wins. Equal win totals are ordered alphabetically for consistent presentation.
State filters
State tables count races staged in the selected jurisdiction; they do not refer to where the sire stands or where the horse was bred.
Distance profiles group winning races into sprint (up to 1200m), mile (1201–1600m), middle distance (1601–2200m) and staying (2201m+). Race classes are grouped from the class description supplied with each result.
03
Sire winners-to-runners
Runner statistics are calculated only from races where the complete field was successfully captured. This coverage can be shorter than the winner-results coverage, so the dashboard displays its runner coverage dates separately.
Winner conversionCovered unique winners ÷ unique runners × 100
Starter count records total starts; runner count records different horses. Repeated starts by the same horse therefore increase starts but not runners.
The efficiency table begins with the current Top 10 sires by season wins and then compares their conversion rates. A missing percentage means sufficient runner fields have not yet been captured for that sire.
04
Stud Fee Value Index
The Value Index is a comparative indicator, not a valuation or breeding recommendation. It combines five performance measures for eligible leading sires.
40%
Winners-to-runners
Covered individual winners divided by unique runners.
25%
Unique winners
The number of different winning horses by the sire.
20%
Black-type wins
Stored Group 1, Group 2, Group 3 and Listed wins.
10%
Recent wins
Wins recorded in the latest 30-day window.
5%
Distance versatility
The number of winning distance bands, capped at four.
Fee adjustmentPerformance score ÷ fee per A$10,000
The resulting values are indexed so the highest eligible sire scores 100. A higher score means stronger measured performance relative to the advertised fee within the compared group.
A sire needs at least 10 completely captured runners to receive a ranked score. Only verified active fees expressed in Australian dollars are eligible; deceased, retired, unverified, unlisted and non-AUD fees remain visible but are not ranked.
05
Jockeys, trainers and partnerships
Each stored win is credited to the jockey and trainer supplied with that result. National tables combine all eight Australian states and territories; jurisdiction tables count races staged in that location.
The leading partnership is the jockey–trainer combination with the most stored wins nationally during the season. Equal totals are ordered alphabetically. Records without a supplied jockey or trainer are excluded from the relevant table.
06
Stud fees and standing status
Stud fees are the advertised 2026 service fees published by the named farms. The dashboard preserves the farm's stated currency and GST treatment. Links open the source farm page so readers can verify the current listing.
When a current fee cannot be verified, the site labels it as unavailable, retired, deceased or not listed rather than estimating a value. Fees and standing statuses are scheduled for review each April, and should still be confirmed directly with the stud before any decision.

Coverage and known limitations
- Historical availability: FormFav supplies a rolling seven-day results window. Bloodline AU began storing the current season from 24 August 2026, so results from 1–23 August are not included unless a licensed historical source is added.
- Daily timing: Updates can be delayed by provider outages, incomplete meetings or rate limits. The displayed coverage dates are the source of truth for what is included.
- Missing fields: Breeding, jockey, trainer, distance or class statistics exclude records where the provider did not supply the required field.
- Dead heats: The current importer stores the first official position-one runner returned for each race. If multiple runners are returned as position one, additional dead-heat winners are not yet counted.
- Corrections: Re-importing a race updates its existing record. Rankings may therefore change when a provider corrects a result or supplies previously missing information.
Information use
Bloodline AU is an informational research tool. Its statistics are not wagering, veterinary, financial or professional breeding advice. Users should confirm important information with the official racing authority, data provider or relevant stud.
