Abstrakt

The aim of the present work was to analyse the results of horses classified in the ranks of International Federation for Equestrian Sports (FEI) in show jumping. 3303 sport horses were
examined. They participated in international competitions between 1.01.2008 and 30.09.2009 obtaining the results that allowed them to be classified in the above mentioned ranking. With the use of variation analysis (ANOVA GLM) the influence of breed, age and sex on the number of ranking points was determined. It was found out that the most numerous breed group were kwpn horses (613 pcs), however, the best results were obtained by Westphalian horses ( X = 144.5 pts.), which together with Belgian and Danish horses were better than other breed groups in a statistically significant number of the average number of ranking points. It was also established that contemporary horse breeding for show jumping discipline is primarily based on Holsteiner paternal lines („C1”, „C2”, „L”, „Q”) originating from a common ancestor Arabian horse (Darley Arabian).
