Daniel,
We do not collect or maintain this type of data ourselves, but it is by our sports governing body, The United States Trotting Association.
We have access to this information at any time, for a fee.
I want to thank all for the help and ideas. Our group has discussed trying to find a way to create a "Number" that would help his determine how successful each mare was in relation to all the others.
It's almost impossible to think of all the variables to take into account and deciding what value to assign each variable is even more difficult.
This is an ongoing project and will probably never be completed to everyone's satisfaction.
When talking about horses, there's too much personal opinion involved, just like human sports.
Thanks again,
Jim
