About Us

Thoroughbred Power Ranking is dedicated to informing the racing enthusiast of the momentary, and perhaps legendary, performances of juvenile thoroughbreds of talent. The rankings, continually updated with current race results, give a snapshot of relative placement in the field of talent.

The concept of ranking juveniles as they begin and progress through their racing career was conceived to satisfy the natural interest of enthusiasts of thoroughbred racing. The developers of the formula and ranking system are breeders, trainers, and owners and have been inspired by their enthusiasm for the sport of thoroughbred racing. In developing this website, they hope to widen discussion beyond sire and pedigree and to further engage fans in thoroughbred racing.

The website strives to elevate the emphasis on raw performance on the track by making it accessible to fans on every level. It is the contention of Thoroughbred Power Ranking that the thoroughbred racing industry can thrive only if fans, even and especially casual fans, have the tools to become familiar with the top athletes.

The ranking formula behind the lists is cumulatively based on the time-honored standards of thoroughbred performance. The proprietary ratio weights finish placement, race and track stature, earnings, and the TPR speed index. Inputs of ownership, breeding, trainer, dosage, and pedigree were deliberately excluded in the conscious undertaking to rank talent based solely upon performance on the track. We hope that you find the website to be relevant and exciting.
