70% + Winners / Starters

[gutwagon]

Winners to foals is a more important stat to look at. Art Major drops to about 40%.

When you breed a foal you can't choose if it will be good enough to make it to the races. Winners to starters is just something used by studs to make their stallions look more attractive. That figure of 40% would rise to closer to 50% when you take away the foals that are too young to race but that still means even when you send a mare to one of the top stallions you only have a 50% chance of getting a winner ! And a winner could be just one 3.5k race !
