Conclusion:
Sire Lines:
– Two Stallions managed to get more than one Derby Winner, Muscle Mass and Ready Cash
– The sire line of Valley Victory is clearly the most successful with 5 Derby Winners
Dam Lines:
– The Dam Lines of 21 horses described are divided as follows:
15 horses: US Dam Lines, of which that of Minnehaha with 3 winners clearly stands out
4 horses: French Dam Lines
1 horse: Romanian Dam Line
1 horse: Russian Dam Line
– We added the Russian Derby to our list for the first time. The Derby Winner's dam line is particularly interesting because it goes back to one of the traditional Orlov-Trotter lines, in her case Metla, who was born in the 1870s. This line has so far brought 6 derby winners, four of them in Russia and one each in Slovakia and the former German Democratic Republic (DDR), the latter two no longer exist.
This is noteworthy in that in the past few decades it has not appeared that trotters with Orlov blood could compete with the best trotters internationally (with very few exceptions). As a reminder: Probably the best international trotter of Russia, Sorrento, came from a US stallion and from one of the most successful US dam lines, Mambrino Beauty.
– Also the Estonian Derby (run since 1949!) and the Polish Derby (since 2005) have been added for the first time.
– And as a last access we have now also received data from the Derby in Romania. Winning filly Hermine VF. is our of the Romanian Derby Winner of 2004, Hera. According to our dear friend John Peck, the Romanian Derby has been running since 1924, we hope to get more data about the horses soon.
