Comparison Testing
  • Just a quick question about testing, if a foal papered up from their dam or sire are they automatically going to test superior? Or should I still test foals that paper up from their parents?

    Thanks!

  • They may not test superior, but will be slightly superior because of the paper level.

  • If the parent is at the top of its paper level and the foal at the bottom of the next paper level they can test about as good as. I don't bother to test A/blue 2nd gens since it is possible to get a B/red that tests superior to an ex perf parent, so A/blue is always going to test superior unless the parent was boosted, but after 2nd gen, I generally do test even if the foal is up a paper level.

  • @LakeOndowaFarm That's what I was wondering about, I get quite a few Blue/A 2G's from red/B foundations and was wondering if I should spend the money on testing or not. I've been going through my red/b 2G's and all my Blue/A 3G's to see how they tested, this is the first season I've REALLY used comparison testing

  • Quick breakdown of 2nd gens:

    B x Red foundation parents
    A/Blue- always "superior" unless foundations were boosted a little
    B/Red- could be "worse", "as good as", or "superior."

    B x Yellow OR C x Red parents
    A/Blue- "superior" no matter which parent you test them against
    B/Red- "as good as" or "superior" to a C or Yellow parent; "worse," "as good as," or "superior" to a B or Red parent.

    C x Yellow parents
    B/Red- "as good as" or "superior" to either parent
    A/Blue- not actually sure if this is possible, but would definitely be "superior"

    I never keep C or Yellow 2nd gens so I don't know how they would test.

  • @SherwoodStables Thank you! That's super helpful, I never keep C/Yellow lined horses either :) Will definitely keep this thread handy next time I test
