2006 World Thoroughbred Racehorse Rankings
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2006 World Thoroughbred Racehorse Rankings is an assessment of racehorses which raced in 2006 issued by the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities in January 2007. It includes three-year-olds and above which raced or were trained in countries where the racing year runs from January 1 to December 31 (generally the Northern Hemisphere).
The ratings represent a weight value in pounds, with higher values given to horses which showed greater ability. It is judged that these weights would equalize the abilities of the horses if carried in a theoretical handicap race. The list includes all horses rated 115 or above, and also shows the surface and the distances at which the rating was achieved. Certain horses may appear more than once if varying ratings were allocated for different surfaces or distances.
(Horse names are followed by a suffix indicating the country where foaled).
