Report of Mares Bred: Gun Runner Tops, Totals Slide

The Jockey Club has released its Report of Mares Bred (RMB) statistics for the 2022 breeding season. Through Oct. 18, 2022 and based on the RMBs received, a total of 925 stallions covered 27,163 mares in North America this year, a decrease of the reported 27,829 mares from 2021.

In Kentucky, the state's 196 reported stallions served 16,689 mares, a number which translates to 61.4% of all breeding activity in North America. That number reflects a decrease of 0.2% from last year when 16,727 mares were reported as bred in Kentucky, while the number of stallions was down 2% from 200 in 2021.

California was the second-busiest state from a statistical standpoint, with 99 stallions covering 1,781 mares, a decline of 3.4%. Florida is the only other state reporting four-figure matings, with 1,495 mares (-4.3%) having been bred to 59 sires (-4.8%).

Stallions in New York and Indiana covered more mares this year than last. In New York, 973 mares were reported as bred, an increase of 2.6%, while the number of sires remained static at 38. In Indiana, 39 stallions (down from 45 in 2021) bred 496 mares, a bump of 4.4% over 12 months ago.

In terms of individual stallions, Gun Runner, standing at Three Chimneys, bred 248 mares in 2022, tops in North America. He was followed by Yaupon (Spendthrift), 242; Mendelssohn (Coolmore), 230; Practical Joke (Coolmore), 227; and Not This Time (Taylor Made), 225. The top 56 stallions by mares covered were all in Kentucky. Six different farms had a stallion in the top 10, up from four in 2021.

Gun Runner's rise from 166 mares in 2021 was fueled by his exceptional first crop's performance on the racetrack. He led all first-year stallions in every black-type category, as well as by winners, wins, earnings per starter and earnings.

The top 10 first-crop sires by mares covered were also in Kentucky, led by Yaupon, good for second among all sires.

The Jockey Club estimates that it will receive an additional 2,500 to 3,000 RMBs.

The number of mares bred to Kentucky stallions increased 2.0 percent compared with the 16,391 reported at this time last year.

Of the top 10 states and provinces by number of mares reported bred in 2021, stallions in Kentucky, California, Ontario, and Indiana covered more mares in 2021 than in 2020, as reported at this time last year.

Live Foals in North America Decrease in 2021 to About 19,200

Breedings in 2020 have resulted in 19,021 live foals of 2021 thus far being reported to The Jockey Club (TJC) on Live Foal Reports, according to the annual Report of Mares Bred (RMB), which was released Friday by TJC. The number of live foals reported to date is expected to be 85-90% complete. The reporting of live foals of 2021 is down 3.3% from last year at this time when TJC had received reports for 19,677 live foals of 2020.

TJC also received 2,195 No Foal Reports for the 2021 foaling season. When all the numbers are in, the 2021 registered foal crop is projected to reach 19,200.

In total, 1,447 stallions covered 29,699 mares in North America during 2020, according to statistics compiled through Oct. 4, 2021. The number of stallions declined 6.8% from the 1,552 reported for 2019 at this time last year, while the number of mares bred declined 4.8% from the 31,198 reported for the same time period.

As per usual, Kentucky-based stallions dominated, taking down the first 16 places in the standings with 16,485 total mares bred in 2020 (212 individual stallions) and 11,535 live foals in 2021 reported to date. Those numbers represent a 2.7% decrease from the same period last year. Kentucky-based stallions accounted for 55.5% of the mares reported bred in North America in 2020 and 60.6% of the live foals reported for 2021. The number of mares reported bred to Kentucky stallions in 2020 decreased 4.4% compared to the 17,240 reported for 2019 at this time last year.

Among the 10 states and provinces with the most mares covered in 2020, only Maryland, Ontario, and New Mexico produced more live foals in 2021 than in 2020.

For the second out of three years, the Coolmore stallion Uncle Mo led all sires in 2020 in terms of mares bred. Florida stallion Khozan was the leader among non-Kentucky sires and was bred to 187 mares. The breeding figures come 17 months after TJC announced it would be instituting a rule that prohibited any horse born in 2020 or later from being bred to more than 140 mares. Forty-four stallions exceeded that number this year.
