Of the 1,418 animals at these shows, 942 trace directly to these 80 great-grandsires through their sire’s lme. The remaining 476 animals are unac- counted for; they did not have a great-grandsire that appeared more than once at that year’s show. Of the 942, 724, or 76.8 percent, carry Brilliant blood. No doubt a great many of the animals trace to Brilliant blood in the succeeding genera- tions beyond their great-grandsires. It is true that a great-grandsire might appear once at each show during the entire 10 years and yet not receive credit in this list. The basis of this tabulation is the appearance of a great-grandsire at least two times in one show. An interesting feature, not disclosed by this sum- mary, but shown by the more extended figures, is that the stallion classes, while only slightly larger in number, carry a much larger percentage of the prominent bloodlines than do the mare classes. Of the 8 stallions that ranked highest in the total of 80 common progenitors, all are of Brilliant breed- ing. To these particular great-grandsires stands the eredit of having 58 percent of the total number of prizewinners whose great-grandsires are included in this list of common progenitors. Brilliant 3d’s* right to premier rank as a sire is * The sire referred to throughout BEE text as Brilliant 3d is Brilliant ITI 11116 (2919). BLOODLINES IN THE SHOWRING 593 abundantly proved by the showyard records. He appears as the great-grandsire of 123 of the win- ners, and his son Besigue stands second with 92 to his credit. The high estimate placed on Villers is also borne out by his appearance in third place, as the great-grandsire of 87 prizewinners. Fenelon, sire of Brilliant 3d, comes fourth, appearing as the great-grandsire of 71 of the winners. All of the first 8 horses appearing in this roll of honor are sons, grandsons, or great-grandsons of Brilliant 1271 (755), the sire that joined with his own sire, Brilliant 1899 (756), in founding the Brilliant strain, dominating blood in the Percheron breed. The most noted of these great ancestors did not win their high rank by heavy winnings of their de- scendants in any one or two years. On the contrary they have appeared as great-grandsires of winners year after year. This is shown by the following summary: SUMMARY NO. 3—1901 TO 1910 INCLUSIVE RANK OF STALLIONS ACCORDING TO NUMBER OF SHOWS AT WHICH THEY APPEARED MORE THAN ONCE AS GREAT-GRANDSIRES OF PRIZEWINNING ANIMALS. 1.

The detailed breeding of the seventy animals in question was submitied to Prof. EK. N. Wentworth, of the Kansas Agricultural College, for analysis as to the percentages of blood of the leading strains represented, the total shown on each pedigree being BLOODLINES IN THE SHOWRINZ 595 taken as 100 percent. This is not absolutely ac- curate, but is near enough for all practical purposes. In computing the proportion of blood of the lead- ing sires, duplications were avoided, and where, as in the first instance given, a pedigree is said to contain 12.5 percent of the blood of Brilliant 1271 (756) and 18.75 percent of the blood of Brilliant 1899 (755), we mean that the particular animal involved carries 18.75 percent of the blood of Bril- hant 1899 (755) through other lines than Brilliant 1271 (756). Where Coco 2d (714) is listed, his blood comes down through other strains than the Brilliant, every precaution being taken to avoid duplications in these calculations. The figures show the percentage of the blood of leading sires carried: TABLE I—WINNERS AT THE 1901 SHOW. Class 1.—Stallions. Class 1.—Mares. CHAMBELLAN 27349 (46787).

An analysis has been made, however, of the breeding of all American-bred horses winning prizes at these International shows, and’ as a matter of interest the sires, grandsires, and great- grandsires appearing two or more times in the pedi- grees of the winners are given, with the number of prizes won by descendants. It will be noted that the ranking sire is by the ranking grandsire, and he by the ranking great-grandsire, and that the second JALAP 80583 (85614)—CHAMPION AT 1915 IOWA SPRING STALLION SHOW; PROGENY WON GET-OF-SIRE PRIZE AT PANAMA-PACIFIC INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION, 1915. BLOODLINES IN THE SHOWRING 601 highest sire of winners is by the second highest grandsire. Here the consistency ends, however, as Marathon is the second highest great-grandsire, but is not the sire of Highland Chief.

Group awards are not included in this list. This calculation takes into account every sire, grandsire or great-grandsire that appeared more than once in the pedigree of an American-bred International winner during the 10 years. The number opposite each name represents the number of prizes awarded to sons or daughters, grandsons or granddaughters, or great-grandsons or great-granddaughters of the stallion in question.
