The prestatie predicate indicates the breeding value of a mare in terms of sport performance. This predicate is of great importance for broodmares, as it shows that her offspring perform successfully in sport. A mare is eligible for the prestatie predicate when her offspring have achieved sport results that together amount to at least five points, calculated according to the points system as defined in the Merriekeuringsbesluit, Article 10 “Predicaat prestatie.” These points must be obtained with a maximum of three offspring.
