Nicks Information Added to Breednet Race Results

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday December 1

Regular users of the Breednet race results each day will have noted the inclusion of nicks information for all winners into our daily results, but for those who’ve never used them now is the time to start if you want to improve your knowledge of pedigrees.

As yearling catalogues start going online many of us begin pondering ways in which to winnow out the chaff from the oats and one thing to consider is pedigree and which horses are more likely to succeed as racehorses based on pedigree.


Our new nick information on every winner highlights nicks that are succeeding for the first time, nicks that are consistently successful and nicks that might be slow to do the job, but is that something that’s going to change?

Our information is not definitive, rather a point from which to begin further investigation to discover if something is as good as it seems.

Breednet is about educating the audience and providing useful information, so we hope you enjoy this new innovation.
