Above
is a diagram of what you would see if you click on the
5x Beta Link on a
horses page.
Sires are in the pale blue squares. Dams are
in the pale pink squares.
First generation sires are in the first column =
Forty Niner if a
chef-de-race they get 16
points.
Second generation sires are in the second column =
Mr. Prospector & Dynaformer if a
chef-de-race they get 8
points each.
Third generation are in the third column if a
chef-de-race they get
4 points each.
Fourth generation are in the fourth column if they
are a
chef-de-race they get
2 points each.
If the horse is a scratch breeding there will only
be 7 fourth generation sires
Because this horse has been bred to an existing mare
or a retired one it has 8 fourth generation sires.
Sires known as chef's have been given aptitudinal designations :-
B=Brilliant , I=Intermediate , C=Classic , S=Solid , P=Professional.
(click on the chef-de-race to get list of
their aptitudes)
Below is a grid chart of the profile calculation
(note
that if a sire has 2 aptitudes divide his points into the 2 aptitudes)

Above
are the sire generations as they appear in the horses page.
(Note the sires in white are 5th generation and
are not used in dosage)
Profile :- B=10 , I=3 , C=18 , S=0 , P=3
Total Points = 34
C.D. = 0.50
formula is :-
[(Bril x 2) + Int] - [Solid + (Prof
x 2)] / total points
[(10 x 2) +3] - [0 + (3
x 2)] / 34 = (23 - 6) / 34 = 17 / 34 =
0.50
D.I. = 1.83 formula is :-
[(Bril
+ Int + (Classic/2)] /
[(Classic/2)
+ Solid + Prof]
[(10
+ 3 + (18/2)] / [(18/2)
+ 0 + 3] = [(13 + 9) / (9 + 3)] = 22 / 12 =
1.83
(The 1.83333333 is
rounded to 2 decimal places.)
