Abstrakt
The aim of the present work was to analyse the origin of dressage horses classified in the ranking of International Federation for Equestrian Sports (FEI) and to define the factors, such
as breed, age and sex on the results achieved by the horses. The authors analysed 610 horses competing in international dressage competitions which achieved the results that guaranteed the position in the ranking. It was concluded that in terms of the number, the first position was taken by Dutch Warmblood horses, which proves their high sports predispositions, in the light of the best results achieved by this group. Among the classified horses the highest number of offspring was obtained by stallions Jazz (kwpn) and Donerhall (han). The best results were obtained by the offspring of Trakehner stallion Gribaldi. It was noticed that the best dressage horses’ fathers were the reproducers whose own use value was high. The largest number of horses were geldings (66%), yet the best results were obtained by mares (647.2 pts). It was noticed that horses aged 10–15 had the best results.
